Hey everyone, have you ever hit the point that you arent suicidal yet youre completely, utterly done with life?
I dont know what to do right now because my prozac and xanax and sleeping pills arent working despite increasing the dosage (under supervision), and theyll be changing my meds again but Im honestly so done that I dont really care about what theyll give to me next.
I was also diagnosed with OCD and Eating Disorder and well, depression was just the icing on top of the awful cake. Ive been through recovery twice but I dont think I can do it this time. Im tired and drained and I am done. I just cant bother to plan ahead or have dreams anymore. And Im actually so sick of people telling me that I have so much to look forward to/ be grateful for because I KNOW. I just cant deal with life, its all too much and Im too exhausted.
Im sorry, Im just ranting on but well, Id love to hear about your stories and progress too, maybe get some inspiration from them, or just to talk this through.
Thanks.
@MangoPancake That combination of OCD, eating disorder and depression is a lot to deal with.
I've read recently that if Prozac (or similar) doesn't work for you then it can be harmful to continue taking it. And I've read that Xanax (or similar) should only be used temporarily because of possible bad long term effects. With sleeping pills, it depends what type they are. If you've been through recovery twice, it doesn't seem like your therapist (if you have a therapist) is getting to the real cause of all your troubles and helping you to overcome it. I'm not an expert, though. I just read stuff.
Maybe you can talk to the professionals in charge of your care about trying a different approach—not just more variations on what hasn't worked.
If you'd ever like to chat to me about your situation, the offer I made before is still open. You only have to message me and I'll reply as soon as I can.

@RarelyCharlie Hi Charlie, thanks for the message and info. I dont know, I just feel like treatment is such a complicated process and Im running out of patience with it. But thank you for the support and encouragement, it means a lot.
@MangoPancake I can relate to the way you
