If medicine isn't working you need to try a different medication. That happens to a lot of people. Anti-depressants aren't all the same. Some work for some people, others for other people. Call whoever prescribed it and tell them it isn't working!!!
As for therapy - it's way harder to find a decent therapist than it is to find the right medication. You can get some real idiots. You might want to try again, someone different. If you're female, get a female counselor.
The main thing is, your medication is not working!!! Demand a different one to try! Often the doctor has free samples so you can try it out before you pay for a prescription.
One question - how long have you been on the meds? If not yet 2 weeks, hang in there, sometimes it takes about 2 weeks for you to start to notice it helping. If over 2 years, it is very common to have to change meds after a couple of years because you get used to it and it stops working.
Look, this is medical. It isn't "you." It's just a medical situation. See a doctor, the same way you would if you were sick and the antibiotics weren't working.
Alright you seem like you have went thru the first like of treatment of this.
I know people dont like to hear this is but I think you might need to go to a Impatient psych unit. You go to the E.R. first and they will send you there.
thank you for writing in. First thing you need to right away is call your dr. Tell him/her your feelings and it is an emergency. This could be because of the medicine you are on. You need to get in soon. Please call asap. You don't have to live this way, I promise. Your dr. can prescribe something better for you.
well if your thinking about suiside call the national suiside pervention center and get some help . i know you want help because people who dont want help just do it, they dont talk about it. call now if your that depressed . or go to the hospital.....good luck
Think about your life! What has ever made you feel good? What part of it have you enjoyed? Them are the things you need to think about and try to repeat. Do not let the sad, down things run or ruin your life.
you need a different therapist and different meds.
How long have you been on your medicine?
Some anti-depressants can make you feel more suicidal (yeah its f*cked, i know), and others take a while to kick in.
If you've been on them for a while and they aren't working you need to go back to the doc and get something that does work! goodluck honey xo
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary condition...
usually these feelings, like the ones you have, pass...if you give them a chance.
Please seek help NOW....
I lost a friend to suicide 3 weeks ago and I know her well enough to know that, if she could, she would take it back. It is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
please don't do anything i remember feeling like that i got checked and they said I'm bi-polar please seek help you probably need yr meds upped that's all don't be afraid to ask for help i promise it will get better once you seek help please go and get help now.
Lots of my paitents had this problem, they even went to the step of "suicide." But everyone (counting me) went through depression. I even got up to the step when i wanted to suicide. But i know that it wouldn't make anything better. If you are being bullied in school or somewhere else, etc. do not ever care what people think or say. They are just the ones who are totally loosers and they have nothing else to do. I think you are a very nice person and very sad right now. But soon things will get better and better. Don't take medicine, it is not good for you. I am a nurse and when i was about your age (teen probobly) i did something i enjoyed doing. If you get out of the house and go bike riding or something else enjoyable, then you will keep your mind of depression.
There is no reason to be upset, everyone makes mistakes, it is a part of life. So DON'T think you are the only one, becuase you are not. You are a very important person to god. Everyone is, and he would not like it if someone hurt themselfs.
Talk with someone you care about and that would listen to you.
Nothing anyone says is necessarily going to help you. Life, and its worth, is ultimately up to you. I will, however, share with you something the most amazing doctor I have ever encountered gave me. It saved my life once, and again and again. I am bipolar, and predominantly depressive. I have been in situations such as yours lasting months at a time, with no alleviation. Somehow I try, and often succeed, in glancing back through my emails from my doctor. They are what re-inspire me and convince me to just give it "one more day."
You ought to feel incredibly priviledged for me to be sharing this with you, being a complete stranger and all. I miss my doctor, but I have been so fortunate to have met him and learned what he had to teach. This is an excerpt from D.H. Lawrence's "Apocalypse," an amazing book that I would recommend to anyone. It was written on Lawrence's deathbed, literally in a matter of days. Though the large majority of his book is rather cynical, Lawrence somehow manages to pull something beautiful from life, and death, while facing the horrendous fate of a death by tuberculosis.
"Man thought and still thinks in images. But now our images have hardly any emotional value. We always want a 'conclusion', an end, we always want to come, in our mental processes, to a decision, a finality, a full stop. This gives us a sense of satisfaction. All our mental consciousness is a movement onwards, a movement in stages, like our setences, and every full stop is a mile-stone that marks our 'progress' and our arrival somewhere. On and on we go, for the mental consciousness. Whereas of course there is no goal. Consciousness is an end in itself. We torture ourselves getting somewhere, and when we get there it is nowhere, for there is nowhere to go." [emphasis added]
-My doctor: If you can accept this, it would go a long way towards relieving you of the great burdens your thoughts place on you. It is not that your thoughts are in vain, but rather the very fact that you are thinking at all is an end in itself, a moral imperative to borrow from Kant. There is no higher plane of existence than thoughtfulness, and there is no 'end' because thinking is not and cannot be a means to anything; it is the end in its very self.
He goes on, at the very end of the book, to say more beautifully than I think any English author ever has, what it is that keeps us alive.-
"What man most passionately wants is his living wholeness and his living unison, not his own isolate salvation of his 'soul'. Man wants his physical fulfilment first and foremost, since now, once and once only, he is in the flesh and potent. For man, the vast marvel is to be alive. For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vivdly, most perfectly alive. Whatever the unborn and the dead may know, they cannot know the beauty, the marvel of being alive in the flesh. The dead may look after the afterwards. But the magnificent here and now of life in the flesh is ours, and ours alone, and ours only for a time. We ought to dance with rapture that we should be alive and in the flesh, and part of the living, incarnate cosmos. I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me. That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea. My soul knows that I am part of the human race, my sould is an organic part of the great human soul, as my spirit is part of my nation. In my own very self, I am part of my family. There is nothing of me that is alone and absolute except my mind, and we shall find that the mind has no existence by itself, it is only the glitter of the sun on the surface of the waters.
So that my individualism is really an illusion. I am a part of the great whole, and I can never escape. But I can deny my connections, break them, and become a fragment. Then I am wretched.
What we want is to destroy our false, inorganic connections, especially those related to money, and re-establish the living organic connections, with the cosmos, the sun and earth, with mankind and nations and family. Start with the sun, and the rest will slowly, slowly happen."
