Help Sep 11, 2011 at 02:06 AM
  #1
I am so tired of trying to be all right by acting all right. I've finally broken down and told my family exactly how I feel. Which is that if I don't get some kind of help or change soon, I'm going to loose it completely.
I tried to get into one of the local psych wards today, but they are both full up. I have to wait till Monday to do anything else. On Monday I'm gonna start calling around for a psychiatrist, but it will probably take a few weeks before I can go see one. I want a therapist to, but it will be the same thing there. I am probably going to take whatever comes first, pdoc, t, or hospital. I just hope that something changes soon. I'm not thinking about death, I just want to feel better. I want to be my old self again. I want to feel something instead of just being down or numb or with my thoughts all scattered. I keep crying all the time for no reason. I just don't know what to do.

Hi Angel,

I'm pretty much feeling the same way - run down and tired of my current situation, trying all kind of remedies to ease this long bout of depression, but not getting the results I want because it seems my brain has all but shut down completely. It's funny, when you think all the fight is gone out of you, a little spark comes back to drive you on a little further. I wish you well and all that's good. I hope with all my heart that you get the help you are diligently seeking and that you rise from this slump.

I just got back from my new pdoc! I was prescribed Paxil and Ativan and I have to go back in two weeks to see how they are doing. I will start seeing a therapist next week. I'm so happy that I'm finally getting things done. This is great! I feel better knowing that all this crap is finally going to start to be better. Yay!
And thanks to all the people who sent good vibes my way.
