Of course you can, my dear. I don't know how long it will take, but I am of the opinion that no one is hopeless. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Sometimes you have to be proactive in getting the help you need.

I know. I'm doing all I can. I'm doing therapy and I've changed meds the 6th time.

What else are you doing? For yourself? How is your spiritual side? Do you have something to live for? Something to believe in and cling to? WHat do you want from life? What is your dreams?

I'm not completely sure what you mean by spiritual side. I don't have a spiritual side really. I don't believe in any kind of spiritualism, nothing really makes me want to live, and I can't think of anything I want from life. At least, as far as I can tell.

I'd love to figure out what I want but I don't know how? How do you do that?

Poppy,
I am in a similar boat and your post led me to register here. I often have no hope. Tonight is one of those times. Sure life has ups and downs, but the downs outweigh any ups. I'm also not spiritual. I'm just not super driven to explore that space. My therapist harps on this, but I don't care, yes I feel unfulfilled but I just don't feel like that is the answer. I kinda feel like it's just a way to convince yourself not to be sad over reality -- similar to positive thinking and having hope -- wishing for the best, trying not to feel bad about your life when you really do feel bad about your life. Anyways. What good are the ups if the truth of your life lies in the downs? In my early 30s, truly feel like my life is waste and I will feel like this forever. And I've tried, I promise I've tried. But it always comes down to this assessment that life sucks, i hate my life, i hate myself, no one will ever love me, etc. And I just want to know why. Why I have to go through this struggle. I know I don't have it bad. A job, family, roof over my head. But the general disappointment of life... why, why couldn't I have a different life, one where I was a happy person, who was loved and fulfilled their potential? Taking meds, 5+ years with therapist.... never any new answers, just a new cocktail and the same tired suggestions of how to "change" my life. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
