How can we help you best? You didn't say much but it sounds like you are really suffering. Are you in therapy and do you see a pdoc?

I would advise seeing a psych and getting an SSRI if you can... plus eating healthy, getting exercise regularly and having a regular sleep schedule can really help.
I know how you feel as far as feeling weak and useless... if you do have major depression and not dysthymia then medication will certainly be necessary, but the eating/sleeping/exercise will help a lot as well regardless of whether you're on meds or have access to them or whatever. Exercising regularly has been proven through multiple studies to be as effective as a standard dose of an SSRI. Good luck and take care - I know how you feel but you can get yourself out of it!!

I know how you feel. Depression and anxiety can be extremely exhausting. There is a lot of good advice on this forum, though! Hang in there!

Welcome to PC. Please keep posting.
Are you seeing a T (therapist) Are you seeing a pdoc (psychiatrist) How long has it been going on etc You will find a lot of support from those of us who go through the same things.

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