Incredibly lonely

Thanks so much for sharing your experience and situation jona, and I'm sorry to hear that you've got therapy-immune depression. I had treatment-resistent depression for many years as well, but eventually for some reason (or much more likely, a very complex and intricate combination of reasons lol) my depression started responding to Cymbalta and low-dose Topamax, 8 years ago, which I am still currently on and I DARE NOT stop taking for fear that my depression will return.
 
I can relate to the loneliness it's soul destroying. I hit rock bottom around 2 years ago. I basically had what doctors would call a psychotic break, I don't really want to go into details about it but it took that experience to force me to finally get the help I needed. I started taking antidepressants which helped a lot, and I still take them now as I do not want to feel like I used to. I was always resistant to using them before but I think I just hadn't found the right type.
I learned a lot about spirituality, and forced myself to try things that could help me. 2 years ago I would never had the confidence to even post on a forum like this my anxiety was that bad.
I guess my point is that things can change in life.
