tired of depression

[Browny71]

I am tired of depression, it’s really taking a lot from me. My family time. As I like to be isoslated I’m not talking to anyone because I feel so depressed. People ask how I’m doing. I say fine when in reality I’m not. I’m on meds, therapy and tried various treatments to no avail. I feel like I’m the only one suffering from this.

oh believe me, you are not the only one. I’m going on over 2 months of a very bad episode and it’s turning my world upside down. I hope you find relief soon.

You are definitely not alone. I hope that knowing that helps a little.

you are not alone. I have been having bad anxiety for the last 6 weeks or so. I also have depression and I’ve suffered a lot, but luckily with meds and therapy, my episodes are less severe. Hang in there, I know it sucks 👎🏻

So sorry you're struggling right now. If nothing is working maybe it's time you go into the mental hospital. I know you probably don't want to go by it's helpful and you start new meds. Take care

You are not alone. Depression sucks. Keep holding on. How you feel will eventually change.

Browny71. I feel you! I totally get where you are right now. I've been in the same place for a couple of years now. It gets old, for sure. And, I believe it will get better. We have to hold on to that hope and take things second by second, minute by minute. You've got this!!! We've got this!!! Sending you a ginormous hug!

Of course! I wish I could wave a magic wand and you'd be healed! I would wave it over all of us on this site and anywhere in the world where people are living with depression. It's a very challenging thing to live with! May we all know peace and relief from suffering in this moment! And may we be hopeful that better days/hours/minutes await us! We are all stronger than we realize and deserve all the happiness and abundance possible! You are not alone! You are loved!!!

I can relate. I’ve been battling a 2-year long bout with depression. I have “Treatment Resistant Depression”. We’ve tried over 20 different meds. I cycle in and out of depressive episodes. I’m better than I was. I’m on meds and also see a therapist. What really helped me was Electroconvulsive Therapy. It comes with side effects but the Benefits outweigh the drawbacks.

Hang in there. You are not alone even though it feels that way. I’m glad you have reached out through this resource. I’ve been blessed by it. Take care.

Thanks for replying.

Kayaker 73, I'm so glad ECT was helpful. I almost did ECT last summer but chickened out about possible side effects. Have tried tons of meds, ketamine infusions and lozenges, TMS. Am back in therapy. Looking at childhood stuff that I haven't fully addressed and hoping I can find relief in doing so. Considering MAOI and am scared about side effects...sigh ! Tough stuff for sure. I'm glad you are hanging in there and getting some relief!,

[Kayaker73 in reply to Casivalentina]

Hang in there…both of us!
