I hide and only leave my house to go to work. I don't have any friends because I'm too embarrassed. I don't take care of myself at all. I am on prescriptions for my depression and do go to therapy but it's not helping. How do I get better?

Sounds like maybe your meds aren't working too well if you are still feeling so bad. Can you talk to your prescriber about adjusting them so they work for you? I, too, have been where you are at and it was a living hell. I had to get my meds adjusted. My doc also prescribed a med for binge eating disorder because I really could not do it on my own. I have regained some control in my life and feel lots better and have lost some weight although I have a lot more to go. I stopped buying the binge foods and start eating good fruit and veggies and nutritious foods. I hope you can get the help you need.
