I am not really coping at all. I put on a brave face and go to work and pretend everything's fine
I have tried mindfulness and various relaxation techniques but they haven't worked.
medication is not helping either, I have tried many ADs and one of them have worked. I am currently on Duloxetine (which has given me a stomach ulcer) and have just started lithium.

I was feeling very suicidal last week so I understand about wanting to sleep and not wake up . now I'm trying to work on improving my life and try to avoid feeling that way again. Is there anything you can do to improve your life or make yourself happier ?

I try. I make myself go along to social things at work etc. and I can make friends on a superficial level, but I am just not somebody people actually want to spend time with.
I truly wish I could make myself happier, and I try so hard but even things that I used to love doing now just make me feel sad because I don't enjoy them any more.
It is so hard just holding myself together all day at work that I just have no energy left for anything else. I have constant headaches and seep very badly but nothing I do has any effect.
i just want it all to stop
