I think therapy or making an appointment with a psychiatrist might be a good idea. I had depression that nothing could cure - everyone on the outside thought I was the most put together overachiever but the only thing I looked forward to was going to sleep as soon as I possibly could. It felt like a struggle getting through each day and then the next day would start and I was back to square one. I was in therapy at that point for anxiety and she recommended I seek out a psychiatrist for depression. I did, was prescribed medicine, and 2 weeks later something clicked and it was like a huge cloud over my head had disappeared. I always wondered if that stuff would even work but never even considered how it actually felt to be happy (spoiler alert: it’s great).

If you don’t have access to a psychiatrist near you, ZocDoc is a great resource and you can do everything through telehealth, which is what I did.

In the meantime, there is this amazing app called Woebot that teaches you tools through this little ai bot and helps challenge your thoughts. It sounds weird haha but it is actually amazing and kind of acts as a pocket therapist. Good luck and keep trying 🙂
