Gene testing? I can't say I've heard of doing that for depression. What's it do?I've had therapists and counselors in the past but I don't have one currently.
I feel exactly like you do. My doctor told me the same thing…and I’ve seen many! Seems like I’ve tried every med out there. They seem to work for a while and then I’m right back where I started. I’ve tried to end the pain a couple of times years ago and swore I would never do that again to my children. But sometimes it seems like the only way out! Also, I could never could do that to my dog. He would be lost without me! It’s my boy friends birthday and I feel like a piece of crap. What a great girlfriend to be crying all day. People will be over later and he will have to explain why I can’t get out of the bedroom. How do you make the pain go away??
I think we all suffer, some to lesser or greater degree. You don't need advice - you need a hug & to be told you are loved just the way you are. You have a dog! You have children! You even have a boyfriend! Some very small inner part of you is grateful they are in your life. Whatever you think you are good at doing (anything!), remind yourself. I think it's ok to cry tho not very elegant a scene!
