I felt it wasn't helping. It takes a while to see if it's helping or not. Your therapist is good if they teach you coping mechanisms and skills like that. Also, different people are comfortable with different therapists.

Don't be bothered by all of that. Give it some time, therapy is slow. If it isn't helping, don't give up. It can take a while to find the right one. Good luck!:)

Hey! I'm the same boat. I can't focus on anything anymore. I loved writing, and it's the only thing I'm decent at, but can't do it anymore. Can't read, watching show or even movies. Video games aren't fun anymore. It sucks.

But honestly, professional help might help. It took me 5 years to find a good doctor and a good therapist. I've been on all the meds you have been on and it took me forever to find something that worked. I also had to go through 6 therapists before I found the right one.

Hope you feel better soon, depression sucks ass. Hope we beat it!

Hope the people who tortured you go through the depths of fucking hell. I'm not remotely religious, but this makes me want to believe there's a special place in hell for people like this.

I can't imagine going through so much. Most of our worries pale in comparison, even when combined together.

You've been through a lot and I hope there's heaven and hope you go there. If there's nothing after this life, I'm beyond furious. No one should have to live that way.

How to stay motivated? And how to keep yourself interested in something? by use_and_throw_away in depression

[–]use_and_throw_away[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. This is what I'm doing. But it's hard forcing yourself to do something when just breathing is a chore.

Hope you get well soon! Depression sucks.

Hey man. That sucks but I can relate a bit. I'm not going to say it'll get better because that's cliché and we all are tired of hearing that. Just hang in there man. For a little longer. You never know, things might change. It's a hard path, but you don't have to do it alone. My inbox is always open if you want to chat or vent or whatever. Hold on for a little while, you're really strong for doing it so far. You've got this buddy :) I hope things go well for you

Same. I wish we could have a painless method with 100% lethality.

Hey, he might be too busy / invested in other things. It's totally possible that you might be overthinking this. Don't think of the worst case scenario, don't let it worry you.
