As a kid I always thought my life would be better when I grew up - I have always lived hoping that the future would improve. But it doesn't! It doesn't get better... I just keep spiralling into these dark, unbearable pits that don't allow me to breathe. I'm getting so used to being alone that I think I'm forgetting how to relate to others. I'm forgetting what it's like to laugh, to be touched, to be cared for... I'm forgetting what it's like to BE with others... Feel so lost and alone. Want a solution - need a solution - where do I get it? How do I get it?

Ouch, I''m sorry things are feeling so bad for you right now. I don't know if your in therapy? or have family or friends? I really don't know what to suggest. I hope things ease for you.

I'm new to the city I'm in. My closest friend has been worried about me - so she decided to fly in this weekend - I'm really happy she's coming, but feel bad that she has to fly from so faraway. The psychologist I'm seeing recommended I see a psychiatrist, but the psychiatrist is booking for May! who knows where I'll be then...

Ouch, Its ok to allow friends to help you. It took me awhile to feel ok with allowing others to help me. Sounds like you have a real good friend there! Sorry the psychiatrist has a long waiting time. Take care.

Thats exactly how I felt. I always imagined myself being much happier when I grew up, and somehow things just got worse and worse. I also am stuck in a terrible, dark place.
I was an unhappy kid, and sure enough I am a miserable, depressed, sick, adult now. I still feel like a kid tho for some reason. And since Ive been stuck in this house for six years (going on seven), I also have forgotten what it feels to be touched, and all those nice things that we all need. So I know what youre going through right now. All I can say is, hang in there, theres always a chance that things will get better. Good luck with everything. |

I feel for you! I've been there myself. Only thing I can say is find another psychiatrist. There's got to be more than just one!
My best to you.
