I am so tired of feeling depressed I can't seem to stay happy for more than 2 minutes. I feel so worthless like I have nothing going for myself. I have a great job, a smart young son , and I own a house. I feel so insecure and is unable to let things go that has happen to me. I am mentally tired I cry almost everyday and constanly tell myself I am a loser for one reason or another, I feel weak and everything that happens to me was meant. I take medication but that doesn't help its so bad dat I can't watch tv, read mgazines, have conversations, or anything without it triggering me to feel bad about myself. I feel every opinion about me is true except anything good someone has to say. I don't know why I feel others actions against me reflect who I am.

It sounds as if you are going through a very difficult time right now. Can you get some counseling to help you deal with this?

I hope you are feeling better soon.

Please do look into therapy. Talking about how you're feeling, your experiences, and self-image could help you through to a happier place in life.

(((mel1982))) Sounds like youre right where I was just about a week ago. I felt like crap!!! Taking my medication and trying to do all the usual things I do seemed almost impossible. I hope you can contact your Dr. and have him call your pharmacy and maybe increase your antidepressant. All you would have to do is drive by and pick it up. Would that be possible? I know.... Even picking up the phone and looking up the number seems like a chore, but please try to do it. Praying you feel better soon and sending gentle hugs your way...

mel1982,

There are lots of different medications. Some meds take longer to adjust to and start feeling better. Please let your doctor know how you're feeling. You might need a higher dose and/or another medication to enhance effects.

I hope that you start feeling better very soon. You're in my thoughts.

Please try therapy again, mel1982. What have you got to lose? Tell your new therapist about your last experience with therapy. Have your medications adjusted or changed as shezbut suggested.

You know doing nothing is not helping. Do something to help yourself.

Good luck.
