I am a MESS! I cannot even do my online schooling! I am on my last year of my Bachelor's Degree and I am just throwing it away with depression! I have nothing on my mind but sadness, lonely, and crying crying crying! Everything is hurting me. The ONLY positive thing I have going for me was school and now I'm just wanting to cry than to focus on ANYTHING. I am tired of feeling worthless. I have no friends nothing. I have a 13 yr daughter that her birthday is soon and I cannot do nothing for her. She wont even call me or come and see me EVER. She stays with my parents....Am I that bad to be around?

The accident, brain injury and recovery process all create a firm foundation for depression. It's amazing you are even progressing toward an academic goal.

Has anything helped with the depression?

Ro yes I was on one antidepressant for about 9 month's and it stopped working while still taking the pills. Then MD tried to up dose and made whole body hurt that I could not move. Then MD switched to different SNRI and I have chronic pain in areas jaw, head, neck....I had to stop that antidepressant after 3 day's cause my jaw was locking and more pain everywhere. Now on no antidepressants till I get diagnostic testing etc for MS. So I am trying to manage but the depression is winning! Im just taking it day by day and withdraw from school.
