My depression is unrelenting. I’m not going to hurt myself (I dislike pain too much for that) but the meds I’ve been taking aren’t taking the edge off my depression. It rules my life. I lie in bed most of the time. My appetite is leaving me. I feel like I’m being choked. This is exactly how my psychotic episode started and I never want to go through anything like that again. I really don’t want to go to the hospital but if they could give me better meds it would seem I have no choice but to go.

It took me a lot of different meds to get my depression under control. I kept trying and found something that works pretty well. It’s well worth the effort and keep trying. It’s not normal to feel like that all the time…do what you need to do to get better!

There’s no sense in suffering. If you need to go the by all means GO. I support your decision. I want you to get better soon. Depression is like being in the bottom of a well and being unable to reach out to the hands that are reaching out to pull you up. It’s the most hopeless, helpless feeling of dread that there is. I hate it. There’s nothing worse and you can’t do anything to stop the onslaught of bad feelings. Please go for help, that’s what you need. I’ll be thinking good thoughts for you.

I’m sorry you are going through that and I’m sorry you might have to go to the hospital. I think I’d do almost anything to not go back into another psychotic episode as well. That includes the trials and tribulations of the health care industry.
It is hard to work up the nerve to voluntarily get yourself to the hospital. So if you do decide to go, be proud of yourself for taking charge of your own life.

I think the hospital will be able to help you out, if you feel that’s what you need.

Thanks everyone.
I had really warped thoughts about people I love during psychosis and I think that’s why I’m feeling so bad now. 
I know they were just thoughts but they felt so real. I feel terrible for thinking so poorly of people. I’ve been traumatized by my own mind.
