I had T today and somehow it made me feel worse. i got everything out but maybe not all of it?

so i got home and binged. i knew it was emotional/comfort eating but i wouldnt be alive otherwise now.

im trying to distract myself from death focusing on ana behaviors and they help a lot but sometimes not at all. and i dont want to go back to alcohol or SHing. im just trying so hard to survive.
survive in general but today more than other times.

i feel like giving up so much

what or who can help me surviving? HELP PLEASE

There's no one remedy for depression that works with everyone. And I don't know your life well enough to find someone close who can help you.

Recently, I feel like I'm out of my two years of severe depression (could just be temporary but I'll enjoy the break). What got me through was honestly a mix of stubbornness and luck. I was stubborn and determined to find a way out of my hell for my then fiance. I didn't want to leave him in the aftermath of my suicide. I thought he was the one who was going to pull me out of the depths. As you can tell by the word I used (then) to describe him, he wasn't my saving grace. My love for him kept me holding on, but it in no way rescued me. The truth is, in the past two years I've sought out help in therapy, support and understanding from friends/family, and medication. Most medications didn't work and, until this past week, I never thought any would. I'm lucky to have a patient T and a small support network (PC included).

That's what worked for me. Two and a half years, four hospitalizations, therapy and several medication trials later; I'm alive and have hope for the future. I still have issues but I'm managing them. In short, I want to encourage persistence and determination, but it's so much easier said than done.

I don't mean to preach and it's not my intention. If you need someone else in your support network, I'm a PM away.

Maybe you could contact your T again and tell him/her how you are feeling? I binge too, it's ok to binge sometimes. I guess it happens with everyone.
Hugs to you. Surviving
