I am 53 years old, suffering from depression, severe anxiety and panic.
I get up every day looking forward to when I can go to bed that night. I'm not eating, not sleeping well, am beginning to feel like a robot as I make myself get ready for work and my daily routine. I am not able to eat much. Nauseated, dizzy, racing heart, loss of concentration, no energy, feel like I'm losing my mind. No one understands this unless they have experienced it and I would wish it on no one! Have been tried on several different meds, currently on Viibryd with no noticeable relief. Go to therapy weekly. Throw an impending divorce, husband who drinks on a regular basis that doesn't understand and doesn't care to understand and I am at my wits end! Open to any/all suggestions, advice. I am sick and this is stealing my life 😣 |

Welcome to Psyche Central.
I know exactly how you feel. Especially when you are taking meds and going to therapy. You may want to try posting in the Depression or Anxiety forums. You might find some answers or at least a lot of understanding people. If you are able to work each day and have a routine do you find that helps? Like keep going through the motions to help break it. Sometimes it does for me and sometimes it get very tiring going through the motions, and then sometimes I am totally dysfunctional.
