Alot has happened since i was last here. I got kicked out of my mom's house & moved out of state to Louisianna where my boyfriend is, got some insurance & FINALLY started seeing a doctor here that I like. I only see him once every month or so & I have finally got a counselor yesterday. I will be meeting with her Saturday.
I have ADHD, generalized anxiety, panic disorder & schizoaffective disorder-depressive type.
My dr is currently trying to manage my SZA because if he put me on a stimulant for ADHD it would make my SZA extremely worse.
So the anti-pyschotic was making me jaw hurt so i stopped it per his instruction. On the 11th I have a appt and should be getting a new med..& im going to bring up how i dont think my anti-depressant is working.
Im trying to balance school, mental health, & holding down a job which is almost impossible due to all this stuff.

How long did it take you to really admit you needed help with your mental health?

For me just before Christmas last year. It was night and I was crying in bed.I've struggled with depression since I was 14. I'm 25 now and I'd tried to do it on my own and cope as best as I could but I was suicidally depressed and very low. Trying to carry this weight on my own was too much.Something was going to give. I emailed my current therapist that night.
