I used to have a lot of issues with depression but I've been good lately from medication. Some shit happened and I had to stay in a crisis hospital cause of some misunderstandings. When I got out, things just seem different. It's like I'm weak and tired. Could this just be depression or does anyone know anything about this?
 
Maybe being locked in that shitty place skewed your perception a bit? I also have some serious mental health issues my mother has worse. I would go visit her before she committed herself during her temp. Stays at psyc. Wards and they were just soul crushing. All the forgotten people and lost souls needing love and help and understanding. Instead they get stigmatized and medicated(poisoned) and licked away and forgotten by society. Just visiting totally drains the life and hope from me . I wonder to myself"is this my future""is this what becomes of those who can't/won't conform to societies norms? And that's only a visit, I can't imagine having a stay in one, thank god I've never had to. But I think that place made my mom dependant on them but idk just my honest opinion...

It could be that. I just want to be able to feel back to normal. It's like I'm always weak and dizzy and it just doesn't feel right.
 
Sounds like major depression. What shitty meds ru on if u don't mind? I've been through most of them with no relief so I definitly know that feeling

Just Prozac. It's been working well for me up until just recently.

Hmm, idk, I'd say make dr appt ASAP and get a new med. my shrink is always alternating. You may just need to have your dose raised a bit since it was working well for u. From what I understand you can build a tolerance to psyc meds just like opiate where u need more for the same effect after awhile. I'm no dr though so please don't start doubling doses or nothing. I. Wish I could be more help but I don't want u to get hurt. I used to do all kinds of shit to try to get those meds to work but nothing helped so I gave up and now I'm just miserable but clear minded except for the pain meds. I'd definitly call ur dr tomorrow and he'll give u a plan I'm sure. U good to get through til then? I'll stay up and chat if you like?I'm bored anyways, lol. I know how the depression can be and I know it's hard to find people who"really" understand the misery we live with...

Thanks for the offer but I'm not suicidal or anything. I just need some sleep right now.
 
Are you trying any non-med therapies like mindfulness or cognitive behavioral therapy? Medication is never going to be enough by itself--it's there so you can cope enough to go deeper and really look at your life and how you feel about it. I hope you have some support for this. Here's a website you might find interesting: http://www.theicarusproject.net/
 
Kk, I know I get lonely and depressed sometime and just need to talk so I thought us offer, I hope u feel better in the morning, sleep well :)
