Numb

[LiaSmiles]

I never know what to say regarding my depression. I am not suicidal or acting out in any dangerous way. However, because I am not in a critical condition I feel as if no one notices my struggle. I feel numb. I feel sad. I feel as if I'm invisible.

My family tries to gets me out sometimes but I have no energy to even enjoy myself. My psychiatrist can't help anymore because medication was never helpful. I just wish there was something else I could do.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello LiaSmiles,

Has anyone suggested Mindfulness to you? I am in the UK and can download Mindfulness music and guided relaxation/meditation from YouTube. There are books available about Mindfulness too.

It may be helpful for you to keep a diary of your day, what you did, what you enjoyed and what you didn't enjoy. You could include your feelings. I know I find this helpful in expressing how I feel.

I hope this helps LiaSmiles. We are always here to help and support you.
