Hang in there I17.

I am not a huge fan of "rah rah" people and I doubt that I will ever be labeled one either. BUT - I was just at a gathering with my brothers in-laws. Big clan. The entire clan was smiling and very upbeat. Now the kicker is - this was at a funeral.

They are genuine people. They are caring, happy souls. And I envy them greatly.

So, I know it is possible. I am not uncertain of the roadmap to get there.

I have experienced a release from it from time to time with a medicine change. Sometimes it would last for years and I would be so happy. Don't give up hope.

Why would Anyone be so "pathetic" to believe it will change? Hummm mine is very bad too but I don't think I'm pathetic to think it could get better. I've had a rough time...absolutely but I still have hope. Although I'm never truly happy I still try. I hate it that I can't laugh with others. I hate it that I don't laugh at funny movies. I can't even recall the last time I had a deep belly laugh.

I can't say I believe it will change, but I sure hope it does. As littlemiss posted, I haven't had a good laugh, muchless belly laugh, in a truly very long time.

I17, how long have you been feeling this way? I'm a firm believer that meds, therapy and perhaps just time will improve things. I don't believe a serious depression can just continue forever if aggressively treated.

You start by accepting and loving yourself. You look for good omens. You take good care of yourself.

Everything else follows.

Venushalley,
I honestly did not mean to call anyone here pathetic. No one is. It was a general reference to the sufferings of life. I apologize if it came out sounding that way, not my intention.

Newgal,
Feeling this way for 19 yrs, it all worsened terribly 5 years ago. Don't ask me how i lasted this long. But then again it's not treated so.....

Well, first question is to me - are you supporting yourself or reliant on their insurance package or however it works over there (confuses me)?

Second point (not really a question)... it's irrelevant what they believe, it's about getting help if you actively think you need it.

As for your initial post... it's a tricky issue. I want to get better... I despise what I see as weakness in myself due to the mh issues I'm facing. I worry as to if at times I'm self-perpetuating things... but when it hits hard, it bewildering, dreamlike and scary as hell so I put a scratch through that worry. I am seeing a T, I am on meds... I know it's going to be a long road, one that I've stumbled and fell a number of times... but I have hope that there will be a time I'll look back on the now and be glad it's no longer the case.

TJ,

Concerning the insurance, either which way is thankfully not too much of an issue for me. But that's even better suckerpunch since i can probably have it and i don't while others go through annoying hardships to be able to get the meds needed.

to answer your not question, idk if i need it......

Hope you get to look back at this stage sooner rather then later.
Good luck.

Why don't you get treatment if yr suffering? Is it because of yr parents views on mental health issues? It sounds like you are suffering all by yr self and that makes me sad for you.
