I hope everyone’s okay, but I know there’s a lot of suffering forum members.

My brother in law’s been staying with us since his hospital discharge. He’s practically catatonic. It’s challenging. He needs twenty-four hour supervision. It’s taking a toll on us.

I slept for only two hours last night. I’m tired of feeling tired. I’m going through a significant depressive episode. The psychiatrist increased the Risperdal. It may be helpful - idk. For the past few weeks, I’ve been feeling hopeless, defeated, and sad. I use coping skills, but it’s marginal at best.
I think the depression just has to run its course.

I’m sure the depression is more situational than biochemical. Maybe both. If the current obstacles improve, then so will some of the depression I’m sure.

Wishing everyone the very best.
