I have been diagnosed with severe clinical depression. My mother is bipolar. I've seen a psychiatrist in the past. I've been on a lot of antidepressants, with little success. I'm currently on prozac and welbuterin. I am still just barely functioning. Even things I love to do don't help as much as they used to. I'm constantly wanting to quit my job. I need it to support my animals, it's the only reason I can make myself keep going in. Both my parents have dementia.My mother is also bipolar. My dad is in a home and not doing well. He depends on me. I find myself just sitting telling myself I'll go visit in a minute.
I don't sleep well at all. If I'm lucky, I might get three hours. I can go months at a time with almost no sleep. I just want to stop being here.
