I'm feeling like a worthless burden to people in my life, and frustrated at my doctor's for being less than empathic with me about my situation. I feel like I really am trying, and I'm going to therapy 3x a week individually plus marriage therapy 1x week. I'm trying to be more open and honest with everyone. But I know the SH has increased this past month a lot and I don't care, and want my doctor to leave me alone about that right now and just fix my medication. I'm feeling really torn about continuing therapy right now and just wanting to take a break from everyone and everything...basically a "I'm a burden and wasting your time because I can't be help so why keep wasting your time right now. Just leave me alone and let me be." I think about reaching out to one of my Ts but I don't know what I expect them to say and I don't know when or what times I could call them if I even did have the guts to. And then Id feel guilty for being an even bigger burden and waste of their time. I just wanna crawl in a hole and forget about life right now.

Hi SheHulk07. Hang in there and try to remain positive, optimistc, even though it's hard to at times. Maybe taking a break from people, getting away somehow, going to stay with a friend or relative, is actually what you need at this point in time? A time to blow out the cobwebs, relax, re-energize, and just step away from everything for a time. Mention it to your therapist and see if they can help you in that area, too, perhaps.

Sending out some ((((positive vibes!)))) to you.

I can relate to your feelings. I don't think you're a burden, although you may feel that way

Thank you for the suggestion but unfortunately I'm not able to get away by myself anytime soon besides for just a few hours. I have an evening planned in a few weeks for my birthday, but that's about it

You're welcome. Your b-day evening will be something to look forward to. Nice. And keep on to your doctor to fix your meds for you as well. You're not a burden on them at all, this is their passion. But just be very honest to the doctor about how you're feeling within yourself. I used to have a tendency to gloss things over with my doctors, which meant they couldn't really tell how much I was struggling.
