Waiting for meds to kick in
I'm barely over one week into taking Welbutrin and I know it may take up to 6 weeks to really feel the effects but that feels so impossibly long and I've been feeling so terribly bad and I dont know how to cope with my depression in the mean time. Its gotten so bad being off meds and my mood swings are

Kinda a positive post, its been a while
Its been 6 months since my last post, i dont have alot to talk about, although alot happened, i no longer feel the need to vent to solve my problems, nor feel the urge to seem reassurance or approval of my events or decisions which is a but freeing, sometimes scary, but my new motto is do it scared and

what to do when my Mum won't get help?
I'm new here, looking for advice on a situation that's not improving. My parents are in their 60's, retired. I live and work few hours away so don't see them often. A while ago my Mum fell into serious anxiety and depression. She stopped going out for any reason, then stopped eating properly, and was

Any tips to stay focused and at least a little productive while dealing with anxiety and depression?
I just can't get myself to do anything. I have a lot things I have to do and I would really like ideas that would help me focus. This just sort of paralyses me for days and it takes too long sometimes to get out of it especially because of the pandemic. So help please?

Who is that in my head?...
I felt compelled to reach out and discuss where I am at in my recovery and see if others have been down this road... 18 months ago I attempted suicide - I had lacerations to my wrist and neck and had to receive a double blood transfusion. I called the emergency services after briefly gaining conciseness

Disability Denied
I suffer from major depressive disorder and extreme anxiety. I was fired from my last two jobs because I wasn't performing well due to my condition. I applied for Social Security Disability because I don't believe I can work ANY job due to my mental condition. My application for disability was denied

Interested in opinions. RLS for me is a nightly nightmare. Been on Pregabalin up to 300mg. GP said I have depression...
Been on pregabalin starting 75mg and now up to 300mg which seems to work well and helps me sleep a lot. However GP reckons I'm depressed and this could be the reason for lack of sleep and RLS. He has asked me to wean off pregabalin and put me on 50mg of Sertraline which is an anti depressant. Two days

Everything is Wrong
This is my first post. I don't even know what to say. I'm so scared of the disruption my mental health is causing. With age and circumstances, the depression is harder to manage. There are more frequent med adjustments. My spiritual faith is shakey, I have no immediate family, and my support system is

Eye allergy and laser treatment
I have been using glasses and contact lenses for eight years now. I'm doing a computer job and sits for more than 8 hours in front of the computer. I'm suffering from migraines. When I feel a headache, I remove my glasses, and after some time, I will put it on. Then I feel like my eyes are burning, and

Shit Post #347
I just keep having feelings like I'm useless and disgusting. I hate how I treat people and in that way I hate how I treat myself. I'm too nice to people to strangers and even people my friends don't get along with. And it has gotten me in trouble in the past up through now (and I keep reliving the past

Finding joy
Does anyone ever wonder if they will ever find joy again? I have a loving, amazing family but since the anxiety and depression that has resulted from the ptsd has come into my life a few years ago, I find no joy in anything and most days feel like I am going through the motions. My therapist tells

Does Ropinirol cause weight gain?
I have been on ropinirol for about 5 years. My scrip is 1 mg and I take 2 every evening, sometimes I'll take one more if the RLS gets particularly bad. Recently I discovered the gaba supplement which really seems to help. Ideally, I'd like to wean off the ropinirol and just take gaba. During the last
