stigma

[Dasha01]

After suffering a major breakdown about 4 months ago everyone turned away from me. I tried apologizing, clarifying what was happening with me but bor my son or my partner want to do anything with me.

I am devastated.

I can’t move on. No idea what to do next, what path to take.

I developed physical manifestation of depression, stomach ache and low back pain. I will have to quit my job soon because I can’t work due to the pain.

It feels that nothing good happens.Doctor can’t decide if I am depressed or bipolar or ADHD. I know I am severely depressed and don’t see how anything can help.

Any thoughts?

I feel for you when your closest supporters aren't going to my with you on your recovery journey at this stage.If your doctor is unsure of a diagnosis, they should refer you on to a mental health specialist e.g. a psychiatrist. You don't necessarily need to be treated by the psychiatrist, just to get correct diagnosis and suggested course of treatment for your doctor to follow up.

Talking your mental health and relationships over within a therapeutic environment is an important part of treatment these days. This can be started without waiting for a psych appointment.
