I don't know who I am???

Question

I feel so lost and confused! I have had a lot of struggles in life and not the greatest childhood. I have been in therapy of and on for 10 years. I have been in group homes for depression and cutting as well as hospitals. I am no longer cutting but I am distructive in many other ways. I feel like I cant trust anybody not even myself or my girlfriend. I just feel like my life is so messed up and there is no way to "fix it" Therapy does not work either does medication. It's only a temporary help. I want to die but than I really don't I am so hopeless. I just don't know what to do anymore. Hospitalization is not helpful at all. What do I do. I don't trust myself

Answer 1

if you really dont feel like yu need the medication dont take it... medication usually just messes yu up even more... cuz yu become dependent on it and end up believing its the only thing that makes yu happy.... also try to figure out exactly what yu think is wrong in yur life and change it/ get rid of it.... yu control yur life... not yur past nor the people around yu

You can find yourself and you do not need drugs. That is why you are alive. It is not to take drugs but to find yourself. See site below to learn about yourself and how to find you.

Answer 4

As a counselor, I have experience in working on issues like this.  Consider what you want yourself and your life to be like, where you are now, and the distance between the two points.  What would it take to start to work towards what you want to be?  As long as you are alive, it is never too late.  There is always hope.  And maybe therapy and medication can help.  What would you want to get from therapy?  What would you want your therapist to be like and how would you like to be helped?  You can make the therapy into something that works for you.  The right combination of medication can be helpful, though it is a trial and error thing and that can be frustrating.  Even if you dont' do medication, at least talk to someone.  This is not something you have to go through on your own.

Answer 5

You have to find that out for yourself, you only have one life and still a lot more to go. We all die and it doesn't matter how famous or important you are, everyone dies. What that means, that means that you are as important as anyone on this planet and you have the power like everyone else to do something with your life, your 21 so go out in the world and do something. You can go to school, own your own business, anything you think you can do that will show everyone that you are IMPORTANT!!!!
