I feel unhappy

Hey to whoever is ready…

I feel really sad and numb today and I’m scared because I was doing so well. I started on a new med (transitioned from one med to the other) from escotalopram to Lamotrigine. I’m now on 50mg and that isn’t a therapeutic dose apparently, so probably why I’m feeling like this, plus I went to bed at like 3am last night (this morning). I just feel very like I have no purpose, nothing, what’s the point, not to the point of self harm, but I just feel really sad and alone and just really low. Like I hate myself, I feel ashamed for past events and for having pleasure as well, everything is wrong. I have no motivation either. I just like coming on here because I want someone to talk to and sometimes it makes me feel better hearing advice and I feel reassured.

@GracieMACK

There's nothing wrong with wanting to feel pleasure.

And happiness.

And connection.

It will take time for your new medication to work.

Be gentle with yourself while it does.

And motivation can be hard to find at times like this.

I'm sorry you cannot sleep.

But maybe listening to some music.

Watching a good film.

And just getting by, is enough for right now 🩷

Thank you Amanda x

I can’t wait get to sleep it’s more so I’ve gotten into the habit of going to bed late all the time and I don’t know how to get out of it. Usually I go to bed at around 11ish maybe 12 atm
