But I couldn't. I simply couldn't.
I wish I knew the answer. Or any part of an answer. It all seems so very unjust at this point in our lives...
People here are supportive, but they cannot truly help due to their own difficulties. A lot of the time in the depression section, all we can do is commiserate and sometimes that does more harm, I think....it's just sad to see so many people hurting..
This thought must go unfinished as I am in a bad way myself, but can we talk about what resources can help you? Can we try?

Thank you for replying when you yourself are struggling. I have also followed your ups and downs.
I feel it is a bit unfair to keep coming on Psych Central and posting when I don't see any lasting change.
I have really thrown myself into recovery options.
In a way I feel kind of cheated. I constantly research and every time I read something it promises lasting change. Like how someone completely cured their depression with vitamins or exercise.
I think maybe soon I would be labeled as treatment resistant and they would offer ECT and I would not go there.
