Depression

Currently I am struggling really bad with depression and I feel so alone. my medication is not regulated at the moment due to trying to get the right combination. I just came out of residential treatment 2 weeks ago and ever since then I have been struggling with the transition back to society. I am getting ready to start a brand new medicine called spravato that I finally got approved for. Has anyone ever tried it? Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to help deal with the depression while I am in the process of getting my medication right?

Hi Purple, I've never been on that specific medication before I've actually been put on this medication called Vraylar which works well for me. I struggle with severe anxiety severe depression and PTSD and OCD have you ever tried the Nami support group if you like your information I can give you their number they meet three times a week for an hour and a half each time so if you'd like to I can give you their number and I don't know if you tried to hotline I could also give you that number too if you like it I hope you feel better pretty soon. Wishing you a very best, Nothingnoted
