It’s been a minute since I posted here. I was seeing a psychologist, which no big surprise, didn’t help. He kept wanting to prescribe anti-depressants I’ve already tried and didn’t help me. He wasn’t familiar with existential depression either. A couple months in my healthcare coverage lapsed so I stopped going to see him, which I was going to do anyway. Just a waste of time. My b-day is coming up in the next week and a half. I’m thinking about killing myself on my b-day. Everyday is filled with depression and existential angst, I hate waking up and being conscious. Nothing about life excites me anymore and I am becoming such a misanthrope that I am starting to entirely hate humanity and their stupidity. I just graduated from my Paramedic program and have to take the state exam to get my license but I’m tired of working in the EMS field, which has attributed to my PTSD and depression. I just want to be able to get over the hump and pull the trigger so I can be released… I hope I’ll be able to do it…

I agree with you in that I’m feeling like everything is a waste of time also. Meaningless. The only time I am OK is when I’m about to fall asleep praying that maybe I don’t wake up. My days are exhausting with constant anxiety, depression, meaningless interactions. Thinking about doing it around my birthday too. I’m sorry I can’t offer comfort, all I can say is I understand. I’m sure if the pain becomes unbearable for you, you’ll find the courage to do something. Although, I truly hope your situation changes for the better.
Its weird, but I feel like I see the beauty, potential and greatness in other people. I read all these posts here and think ” It’ll get better for these people. They are wonderful and strong. They are worth so much in this world.” But then I look at myself and put myself down. I guess everyone here probably does that too. We see the greatness in others but tear ourselves into pieces. If it’s any comfort, just know that no matter what, you will die whether by your hand or the universe’s hand. Death will Always be there. Hope you find peace 😉
Unfortunately for many meds may not work right away. It takes time ot trying out different combination or dosage to find what fits you. Please be patient Or Give it another try with a support group or low cost therapist private
