Do you see a therapist for support?
Do you see a pdoc for meds?
If so, do they know you are so low right now?
Do you have any support around you? Family/Friends?

I do not see a therapist the last one I went to was unable to help me because she didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know. I was not giving any kind of helpful tools except to ignore the bullying which was hard. Later on I ask for referral and I found out either I didn't meet the criteria of the age group, or they weren't qualified to help me. It was suggest that I go to the state hospital but they told me I was not depressed enough, grief enough, I wasn't a danger to myself, or a danger to someone else. I don't take any kind of medicine for my depression. I am not seeing a doctor. Because i trust the family doctor after what she did to my parent or anyone else in that office. I am told no one accepting no patient or taking my health insurance. Even though I call my insurance to see who take my insurance out of curious the insurance the doctor do take my insurance the doctor are saying no they don't.
When I was younger i talk to my doctor who had me talk with a counselor. Who couldn't help me or wouldn't help me. I shame my mom who chewed me out for my anxiety attack I was having that I didn't know I had until my early thirty. I mediated and do yoga but sometime the meditating doesn't always help me. I have not been suicidal in a long time. I have a family history of depression, anxiety, suicide.
