Don’t want to get out of bed

I really only get out bed because my group home makes me get up for meds. The meds don’t help the depression much but my psychiatrist says there’s nothing else she can give me. I stay up to see my aide and then to go to music and art but after that I just like to sleep. I’m just barely existing. I see a therapist once a week but she’s only minimally helpful. I’ve been to so many at this point, it’s always just more of the same.

I'm sorry your not getting the help you need... and maybe a different therapist might help at this point. Unfortunately there is no cure for depression, just learning coping skills. I am fortunate that my meds do help, because many are drug resistant, but they don't prevent my being triggered, or stop the down cycles of my depression. But to help, I can do my painting and studies, and watch films, so that keeps my head in a Zen place. I hope you do find more relief, I know it's hard.
