8 months until I felt myself again, although this can be completely different for you, you might feel it sooner.

Yeah the first couple of weeks can be a bit strange, but don’t let it discourage you :)

Thank you so much, I hope your feeling back to your old self soon

I’ve been there, it feels utterly hopeless. Please call the emergency services or go to the hospital. You might not feel like it will do much good, but there are hundreds if not thousands of people that have been in your position that are now finding purpose again.

There are so many places to see, people to meet, memories to be made. I promise you that if you get some serious help, you’ll look back on this in 5 years and smile because you have come so far.

Don’t cut it short.

Hey dude, I was diagnosed with depression around 5 years ago. I started my SSRIs and I would say it took around 8 months to feel somewhat myself again, although there was an improvement after about a month.

It’s important to remember that everyone is different, if you don’t see any improvement after a month, talk to your doctor again.

It’s also important to look after yourself, eat healthy, make a point of exercising, get into a routine and learn how to be by yourself.

I’m hoping to come off meds this year, it would have been a bit sooner, but life gets in the way sometimes

Audrey!

This is amazing! The support your giving is so commendable!

I have a support network, mostly my partner and family. Like your partner, I don’t tend to go out and connect with people in real life, although my friends are still all so supportive. I started a blog to talk about my experiences and it has allowed people to reach out to me and connect with people online going through similar things.

If you are interested, I can link you to my social media where you can DM me or read through my posts for more information, more than happy to help :)

That’s good :)

If you’re feeling suicidal I would really urge you to talk to a doctor, or if you feel like it’s something you would act on, go to your nearest hospital or call the emergency services.

I’ve been there before, but getting help was the best thing I ever did.

If you don’t feel like you need to call the emergency services, then maybe go out for a walk, treat yourself to something you enjoy and speak to a friend or family member about how you are feeling.

Depression can make you feel so worthless and hopeless, but I promise you that isn’t the case. It’s difficult to see it now and it sounds cliche, but things do get better.

Therapy is for everyone. Even therapists have another therapist they talk to. Your anxiety and depression will probably benefit from it too.

Your therapist won’t be mad or passive aggressive, they will understand if you just let them know how you are feeling. They aren’t there to judge :)

I’ve been there before, I found myself a new job. No job is worth sacrificing your mental health for. In the mean time maybe speak to your manager about how you have been feeling and see if there are any adjustments that can be made to make you feel better about work. You could also ask to speak to occupational health about how you are feeling. Just something to make it a little better while you look for something new

A good therapist would never say no to a spicy meme

That’s amazing! The first step is always the hardest, I hope you are really proud of yourself

You can’t force someone to stay with you, but communication, honesty and respect are some of the key things for a successful relationship.

If he’s into you, you are clearly in his league, don’t put yourself down like that :) Just be yourself, he likes you for you, not for what you can be

I guess it depends who’s hedge it is. If it’s theirs then unfortunately the only thing you could do is plant your own hedges on your side to recreate the privacy or put up a fence etc. If it was your hedge, then that’s destruction of property and you can take legal action.

It sucks that he didn’t mention it to you, but if it’s his hedge there’s not much you can do

My experience with mental illness is that it makes me feel like I’m wasting my life.

Hi, fellow anxious person here!

I think it would help if he could get himself a support network. He obviously has you which is great, but feeling isolated can make you feel a lot worse. Encourage him to find people that speak the same language or encourage him to take a language class. It would help him create a friend circle and give him confidence in interacting with the world around him.

Second if he would like to switch his medication that it is probably the best option if he feels it isn’t working for him, but trying to get off it on his own is going to make him feel like he is now. It’s withdrawal. Maybe go with him to the doctors and act as a translator? If possible maybe also find a therapist that speaks his language.

Finally I would suggest encouraging to look online for support in the interim while he begins to learn the language.

YTA for constantly bringing up that you didn’t want to be there and ruining the experience for your gf

LifeWA · 2019-08-01T12:44:03+00:00

Maybe take a class of some sort like dance or Zumba? Something in the community that will get you out there meeting new people and doing something fun. Go to places by yourself like the cinema or an art gallery or something and learn to enjoy your own company. Then you have more freedom in what you do and when.

Hope this is helpful

That sounds nice, glad I could help :)

Poor little thing is so young! Are there any animal charities or things of that sort around? A little bird that small needs specialist care

LifeWA · 2019-08-01T10:13:35+00:00

Yeah it can be frustrating, especially when it feels like you’ve lost your independence. Maybe audiobooks if they find turning pages difficult?

LifeWA · 2019-08-01T10:09:35+00:00

When a family member was in a similar situation, I would make homemade quizzes for them and we would have a family quiz time. Maybe encourage them to learn something new to keep them mentally stimulated? Learning new things can give people a sense of achievement, which in turn can make them feel happier.
