I am really struggling right now. I am beyond burned out. I am in therapy, take medication, and have been dealing with depression on and off for over 30 years. I know what .i need to do, have several years of therapy (almost 10). Have tried ketamine infusions and several medications. And I still find myself here today, depressed, just wanting to curl into a ball and cry and not do anything. I have a very supportive husband, a wonderful child, starting a business, have friends. I feel empty, with no energy or desire to do anything, I want to run away, to leave and rest. Not even sure why I am posting except for a desire to tell someone how I feel. Know what to do but I simply have no desire to do it anymore. I don’t feel I can tell anyone I know and won’t see my therapist until Friday. How do you get the motivation or even desire to do what you need to do to get better!

Hello Zeilaram: I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to Psych Central. In the addition to the Depression forum, here on PC, there is a sub-forum dedicated to the subject of treatment resistant depression. Here's a link just in case you hadn't already noticed it:

https://psychcentralforums.com/treat...nt-depression/

You mentioned you've been dealing with depression on-&-off for over 30 years. So I thought I would draw your attention to this Psych-Central-supported website for people with unrelenting depression & anxiety:

Project Hope & Beyond

And then here are links to 5 articles, from Psych Central's archives, that (hopefully) may be of some help:

About Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD)

What You Need to Know About Treatment-Resistant Depression

Tips for Finding Motivation When You're Depressed

https://blogs.psychcentral.com/relat...hen-depressed/

https://psychcentral.com/blog/3-stra...dium=popular17

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.
