I can’t keep living like this … eventually I am gonna die from the stuff going on. Anybody ever reach a breaking point where you really can’t keep doing it the same way?
Nothing I’m doing is working to make my situation better. The meds, meditation and will power all fall short.
Any advice on where to start if you have to make a change?
Just stay strong and try and stay positive. It does get better. A lot of us were once in the same situation you’re in now and things got better for us.
If you aren’t feeling any better at all, it might be time to try different meds. Or a dose increase on your current ones if you currently aren’t on the max dose.
Exercise. If your feeling frustrated, angry, ect… lift some weights and do some cardio.
See a therapist.
Talk to someone, try to stay busy/distracted.
I know its hard man, but you can improve. It’s possible.
It does get better. I’ve been in some pretty bad places. Day treatment has helped the most. Idk what I’d do if I didn’t have that. Maybe look for a local day program. Take a shower brush your teeth wash your clothes clean your house. I always feel better after doing any of those. Also talk to your doctor. Maybe you can find something that helps.
The more you do it, the less you freak about it. You develop self-confidence because you know you’ve survived before and have what it takes to keep surviving. Same as ignoring the voices and delusions. I’ve had three decades of them promising the worst and not being able to produce so much as a day with light overcast, let alone the end of the world. Makes it so much easier not to take the symptoms seriously.
