Yeah, don't worry, you're not alone. I searched on google for posts with the word 'egypt' on psychcentral and that's how I found your post, and a bunch of others too. You can do the same, just write:
"egypt site:forums.psychcentral.com"
in the google search box. The "site:somewebsite.com" limits the search to that website.

There are others like us, many like us.
Life in Egypt is rough and mental illness is kind of a luxury that people can't afford. Mental health support is not developed here, as many people are struggling to find a job, a home, a medicine or money to treat physical illness... it's kind of a luxury.

People just tell: snap out of it. Even psychiatrists say the same too. "I give you pills, what more do you want?".

But we are very lucky that we are born in this time and that we have families to support us, that we were able to learn English and have computers and internet. At the past they would just put us in abasseya hospital and forget about us.

I have quit looking for treatment from Egypt. I went to psychiatrists from 2005 to 2011, then I quit cold-turkey. The pills put 43 kg on top of me, the doctors blamed me, my family shamed (and still shames) me, it only made my life worse to seek treatment. Just one day I realized that, I am spending money on pills and psychiatrists to make my life worse and make myself fat and unhealthy (with the pills) that didn't help anything with my psychological state. So I quit, near to the 2011 revolution. It was like I made a revolution in my own life, hah.

I am studying and looking for a job, and my goal is to move out of Egypt. I'm trying to make it on my own.

Anyway, I'm not going to rewrite everything, I wrote most of this on my other post. Just remember, you're not alone, there are many others like us who are lost in finding help here in Egypt as the living conditions are grim and many things are a luxury, and we are lucky to born in this time; in the past things were more tough, we have easier and better life than kings and queens did. It's very tough and very lonely for someone with mental illness, but we do have priviliges too.

Just try to relax and exist without carrying the weight of the world on our shoulders. Good luck.
