Depressed and hopeless

I don't know where to begin....

I have been suffering from depression for many years, and...even after seeing many psychiatrists, psychologists, GP's, psychotherapists, mental health nurses...etc etc....i feel worse today than ever before...sometimes i feel very suicidal but i do not want to come across as a drama queen so have never ever admitted to anyone that i feel so bad.

I'm ALWAYS exhausted...i feel so tired that i do not want to leave my bed...i am agoraphobic...(i left my house for the first time in 2 weeks the other day and couldn't wait to get back home)...i feel extreme anxiety, i'm gaining weight rapidly and i am always in pain. Pain, that is from various places and differing reasons....i suffer with extreme menstrual cramps and tiredness...i cannot seem to find ANY advice on this and i am just so desperate.

And, this past week, i have had an EXTREMELY sore throat, with the glands from just under my ears to the bottom of my neck being in agony...i think i may have glandular fever now, just as a bonus....LOL....to top that off, i am having pains just below my left ribs and also at my right side too, with occasional ear ache and often head aches too.

What is WRONG with me? I'm not a hypochondriac....i NEVER ever complain and i usually avoid getting help just in case it is a product of paranoia. Grrr....i don't know what to do with myself anymore.

I'm 26 and feel more like i am 106!!!!

Hi,

Sounds miserable to say the least. As far as the sore throat and ear symptoms you may just need to be see esp. if you run a fever more then a few days. You stated you have been to many physicians regarding your depression and I was wondering since you feel worse today if you are taking all your medications as prescribed, if so maybe you should discuss these very serious symptoms and thoughts with your dr. He may change the medication to one that makes you feel alittle better. I'm glad you went out the house and by doing this more you just may over come your fear.
Do you have friends you can go out with, a supportive family all these things can be of great benefit to you. But please see your dr. and stay in therapy and in touch with other people. Let us know how you do.I have been on meds for years, on and off...but nothing helps really...fluoxetine/prozac was the most beneficial, but now my doctor will not let me go back up to the full doze that i was on two years ago, i felt better then than i do now...even though back then i was at my worst as far as my bulimia was concerned.

I was taking up to 60 laxatives per day, yet i felt so much better than i do now....

I have stopped taking the meds now because i may as well have not been taking any.

I was also diagnosed as being bipolar, but when i was put on any medication given for that...i became worse...one even made me sleep no less than 18 hours a day. (that's how i am feeling now but without any medication)

I have been seeing my doctors for years about this, but everytime i go back...i feel like i am being silly and i get the impression that there is nothing that can be done for me any more. I was in therapy...but i am finished with that now.

I do have many friends....all very supportive and want to do things with me....they also understand that i am a recluse so never force me into going out or anything. Well, most of them anyway.

My doctors don't seem to care, everytime i go in it is simply a case of 'oh well, we will try this for a change' then tell me to return in a month....i feel so pathetic.Hi, again Mermaid,


Two conditions bipolar and bulimia both require medication, on going therapy or group therapy, behavior modification and to my knowledge you can't just cure these on your own. It just may be because you are on no meds at present time for the bipolar condition you would exhibit the full ups and downs of this, which include even thoughts of suicide. Since I'm in no way a physician all that I can do is ask you to be seen by a specialist as you were before and stay in therapy for both conditions. Realize your not alone in these conditions but you too have to make the effort too. Your still young and have alot of life to live instead of just existing with no treatment for your disorders. If you feel not satisfied with one Dr. find another you can work with but get the needed help so you can enjoy life.

Stay in touch please and let us know how you do. You may also use the search tool for forums concerning both conditions which may give you support also. Good LuckThankyou.

I will try my best...

I actually think that i don't have bipolar...but, i guess i could be wrong.

My doctors don't know about the bulimia, and i would never admit to them that i have suicidal thought. The thing is...i know i wouldn't ever go through with it...its just that sometimes i do actually want to end it all because i cannot deal with this any longer.

I will let you know what the doctor says if i go back...well, i will go back...but, i don't know when! LOl..
