One thing that helped me was getting out as much as possible- a coffee shop with a friend for example. Listen to your favorite music. Have you taken DBT? They do a section called distress tolerance which was very helpful to me. I used to call the psych ER all the time (or go in). My med record is sobering to read. I hope you find peace! Not just this month but always. You deserve it!!
Hi Moose..thank you! I was on my own last year, and when my major depressive episode started and lasted 6 months, I had to come back to this situation. Assuming I can continue stable, I plan to move hopefully in the spring
