I have been battling depression since a teenager. Yes for the first few years, medication helped me. Then I the medicine that I took for so many years that always worked, quit working to help my depression. For years now I have been on a rolls coaster with medications, my family Dr, more than one psychiatrist, and also just came home from a $30,000 mental health residential treatment center. Yes for the 3 weeks I was there I felt better. Although when I came home I immediately felt depressed again. I am currently seeing a new psychiatrist and and counselor weekly. I feel worse and worse everyday and feel like there is no hope for me to get better! I just pray every night for myself and any others who feel the same way as me!!
I understand. People who do not feel that deep deep emptiness cannot explain it. I have hope for you. I have hope for all of us. It is very difficult to struggle with trying to find things to make you feel okay. As long as you keep going you are fighting. On days when I feel done. I think of something I love. I wish people were not so desensitized to others. Keep up the work.
