lost and forgotten?

got up today thinking I could make it and got as far as the couch. walking out that door is getting harder and harder. answering my phone is not an option as I keep the volumne on low. seems my world is getting smaller every day and eventually I will disapear, not sure if any one other than the kids would even notice. keep playing games with the anti anxiety meds I am no longer prescribed. some days I take 1 some 4 I know I am taking chances but that seems to not matter. I am just so sad that if I take the meds I will sleep and will feel no pain, a pain that has taken over my body and mind. Just do not know what to do with myself. feeling sooooo lost

that's how i feel too " lost and forgotten"

hang in their

It's easy to feell alone and lost when the depression really grabs a hold. You and your family need for you to put one foot in front of the other long enough to seek medical help.

It's so easy to turn ourselves inward and watch our world slip away. Believe me I know only so well. Each day is a struggle even when the meds are working. In your case they aren't and you feel your world is shattering around you.

Take the time to get some help. Keep posting on PC cause there are others out there fighting with you.

"alone in the world"

Sounds like a book title, written about me...

must be a way to be seen

sounds like a book we both could write might be a major seller

You are not alone and i know there are people that care about you and love you. Reach out for help and someone will be there.

I so identify with "alone in the world." Now I have a question on the same theme. I am afraid to reach out to my children - they are older and understand my pain, but I do not want to burden them with my serious problems - they have their own lives. My wife has had it with my depression and lack of progress. She doesn't want to talk about it. My pdoc has tried every medication and combination cocktail under the sun, and very little works for me. I have no friends. Who is left to reach out to? It seems hopeless. Are there any answers or is it just "grin and bear it."

Hope you feel better, "alone in the world." Hope we all make it through.
