So alone.. so sick of this depression

Question

i dont know if there is any1 out there who will find this.. i have nothing i want more than to stop feeling.. and for that to happen i have to be dead or in a coma. yes of course there is a targeted event that started my depression 2 years ago, but now my medicine isnt working.. or maybe it is and im not doing enough to fight this..

im on 20mgs of lexapro, .5mgs of xanax, and 60mg of cymbalta, ive been seeing a psyciatrist and social worker.. wut else can i do? dont give me the meditating, prayer, new doctor, or athletic activity bull because none of that works and God doesn't listen to or care about me obviously... just tired of all this, 2 years of people telling me ways to avoid these feelings is beyond boring and bullsh.it. im never getting better, im never getting help.. i am so sad, i miss him so much..

Answer 1

If you do not have enough money, you could take drugs, like alcohol or crack, to feel better and many do. But that does not cure it. The cure is to make more money. If you are depressed, the cure is not to take a drug, like Prozac. The cure is to be happier. If you have panic or anxiety, which everyone feels at one time or another, the cure is not to take drugs. The cure is to feel more tranquility, calmness and peace of mind. See site below for more on this. Peace be with you.

Kevin Trudeau says in his best selling book, Natural Cures They Do Not Want You to Know About, "All illnesses and diseases are caused by the same things; (1) too many toxins in the body; (2) nutritionally deficiencies; (3) electromagnetic chaos exposure; (4) mental and/or emotional distress." "The most effective way to cure and prevent disease is by getting the toxins out." "One very powerful cleanse is, of course, fasting." "Drugs only suppress symptoms, and they cause disease because they are toxic." In More Natural Cures Revealed, Kevin Trudeau says "The facts are clear, drugs, both prescription and non-prescription, do not make you healthier, they make you sicker. Drug companies are not interested in your health. Drug companies only want you to buy and use more drugs. If you want to cure yourself of any disease you have and remain healthy, you must eliminate all non-prescription and prescription drugs."

Answer 2

Get an experienced therapist.  You sure sound hung up on a past that isn't anymore.  Life moves on.  You have issues driving your depression.  Deal with them.  As for meds, how many tricyclics or mood stabilizers have you tried.  I'm guessing none.  Sorry, chica.  I've been thru so much depression in my life, including the psychotic variety, that someone giving up on a situationally driven problem without a sincere effort doesn't ring my bells.  Get a grip instead of giving up.

Answer 3

You didn't mention what targeted your problem so it is really hard to help. So with my assuming what ever it was that was so bad, whether it was a death of someone you loved dearly or a break up life goes on. The person would want you to go on with your life if they had died. If it is due to a breakup there are plenty of fish in the sea. I have been thru depression to where I couldn't leave the house nor did I want to be left alone. It is a horrible feeling. But, honestly God did help me. My psychiatrist helped. It could be you need to change your medicine and try a different kind or the doctor may need to up the Lexapro to 40 Mg's.  

Answer 4

I wish I could help you.  I know how it feels to be alone.  I think the first step is to contact your doctor and tell him/her that the medicine isn't working.  Keep trying until you get an effective combination or dose.  Sometimes though, medicine is not enough, especially if it was caused by an event and not just a chemical thing "just because".  A therapist should be helping you find the tools to cope with your loss, if they are not, find a new one that you connect with.

I think part of it is a state of mind.  You have to convince yourself that you want to feel better.  Take pride in small accomplishments, yay, you got up and got dressed today.  Yay you found something on TV to laugh about.  Go through the motions of your life until you feel like living it.  Sometimes pretending can turn into reality, making an effort to show everyone a happy face can make you find that joy.  It's not going to be easy, and it will be one day at a time.  There's nothing I can say that can kick your butt, you have to want to live and want to move on.  Find the one thing that you are passionate about that you can focus your attention on, animals, drawing, collecting?  I know it's hard to stop thinking about something, but I truly believe that dwelling on sadness makes you sad.  Try to divert your attention or thoughts for most of the time, and allow yourself 10 min or 30 min at a private time of the day to have a pity party and let your feelings out, write in your journal, whatever, and then tell yourself the pity party is over and find something else to do.

Answer 5

God is there, and he hears you. Sometimes it may seem otherwise, but He is always present. It's hard to, but you must place faith in Him.  

Answer 6

"This too shall pass".

Seriously, better days await you.  Life has ups and downs and for people with depression the downs seem devastatingly low, but you have to remember that they are just "bottoms".  You have been happy before and you will be happy again.  Medication will help, but it will never "fix" everything.  

A therapist will definitely help you sort through your feelings and baggage from the break-up.  You will NEVER get better until you deal with those issues.  If anything, you will just repeat the cycle and end up dating someone else similar to the first guy, things will end badly, and you will be back at square one.  You have to learn and grow from this in order to move forward.

I wish you the best; I know it's a hard place to be.  God does care, even if you don't feel it.  And other people care too.  We've been there.

Answer 7

people that are in comas can and do feel. they are just sleeping. you are depressed and dont want to get the help you need. if you are so tired of feeling like this then change your attitude. wake up in the morning and make yourself useful, keep yourself busy and if you dont believe in any of the advise others have given you then its up to you to change this. you said it yourself you are on meds now do your part and stop feeling so miserable. be happy even if  you dont feel it try to smile and it will make your day better, by the time you realize it years have passed and you have changed. see things with an open mind.....even when we think or feel something it doesnt always mean that we have given it a real chance.  

Answer 8

Step 1: Ensure your emotion is controlled daily. Don't over reacted, stay calm and don't get worry easily

Step 2: Think before your action. Don't repeat her past experience on herself. Remind herself from time to time.

Step 3: Be confident to yourselves. Remember everyone is the winner. "Only One sperms out of millions fertilize an egg"

Step 4: Get a group of close friends to share your experience and get some activities that would occupied your time

Step 5: Increase scope of life. Meaning that she should involve in more social activities like dancing, outing and others.

Step 6: Put a rubberband on the wrist. If there is a negative thought, Tighten the rubber band and release it. Hence the effect of the pain would be able to reduce the possibility of negative thought.

Good Luck.
