Re starting therapy
I'm new to this so I guess I'll just start... Last year about a month after Michigan shut down due to the pandemic, I was hospitalized for a series of seizures, this was the first time I've every had a seizure too. I remember waking up in the hospital not knowing where I was, what happened to get me

What’s Wrong with Me
I am having a terrible time. It’s like all of my symptoms are dialed to 10. If something doesn’t go my way or the way I thought it would go, I get so mad. I cry and I want to scream and it’s a terrible feeling. I had to get rid of a bunch of my pajamas and sheets because they felt like sandpaper on my

Is it time for me to go home?
So this is a personal question for sure, but I need an unbiased opinion, so I thought that I would pose it to y'all. Here's the situation: I've been staying at my sister's place for the past three weeks. The reason that I began staying here was because my depression had gotten so bad that I was staying

Meds,
psychotherapy
, TMS...nothing has helped. I feel like I’m passively drowning—I have no motivation to help myself. I just want to care again. I don’t shower, keep my apartment tidy/clean...it’s so bad. I feel hopeless and can’t imagine how things are going to get better.

Is it Trauma or ADHD?
Hi I’m new here and have already learned so much by reading through so many posts, but I’m still feeling conflicted over how to help my almost 8 yr old son. To give some quick background: my husband and I adopted our son from birth and started noticing concerning emotional behavior as young as 12 months

The importance of positive comments
Today during a thearpy session our therapist told our son that he is impressed with how well he has done. Looking back at how things were during middle school and how much better things are now. He told our son that he uses him ( without giving his name) as a positive role model to other children that

Cherish the good times
In a much better place than I was over a month ago. Without the help of my therapist of course. Nothing against her but I think there is better therapists out there that try not to push meds down your throat like she tried. Occasionally I still get some anxiety and thoughts now and then. But I can

Depression/Anxiety Management
I am having a really hard time managing and I feel like I will hit rock bottom. I don’t have anyone to talk to about the pain I’ve been feeling. I have a therapist but my profession is restrictive and makes it difficult to express things openly. It’s been an incredibly lonely couple of years. I need

I am crushed
Can't sleep. I found a therapist that I just knew was the one. She had the experience I need with all the right things. On my insurance too. I didn't think I'd ever try again with the bad experience I had with my last therapist. My trust was shattered. But I got the courage to call one yesterday. And

How do you become motivated to do anything at all
I am so lost. Everything that brings me joy now just lead me down a path full of sadness and everything seems to be tainted with comparison of people doing better than me. I can’t even read a fiction book without wishing I was something I’m not. I don’t know how to feel worthy of being anyone. I’m drowning

How Chronic Illness Patients Can Cope with Seasonal Affective Disorder and Depression During COVID-19
A therapist may use combinations of such
psychotherapy
techniques as: Psychoanalytic or psychodynamic
psychotherapy
, the original "talk therapy", is frequently given a bad press because it can't work in 6-12 sessions, which is what you get, if you are lucky, under the NHS.

Alone and so tired.
I have a long history as a pretty high functioning person with depression, anxiety and more recently PTSD. The depression has become treatment resistant. I have tried so many meds, ECT, TMS, Ketamine and now Spravato along with three outpatient programs. I am attending IOP now. But I still feel so down
