So a little back ground information to start off this post. Â Im 27 now and was diagnosed with depression when I was 14 after a suicide attempt. Got out of hospital and went to see people about my issues. I managed to control things until I was 18 when I had my 2nd attempt.
I had been down over the last few years and I asked for help and I got what the medical profession counts as help. I even changed my job as I hated it. I am now In a job that I should be happy it as its in a job I want to do. I am taking my medication and I have a lovely wife and no money worries so why do I still feel this way.
I feel so helpless and frustrated, As I have tried and tried but I still end up back at square one feeling the same. I have fought this illness for years but am really starting to loose the will to fight,

Posts like this really make me sad, because I want to help… but how can anyone. Have you tried basic things like daily exercise?
Your not alone. I’ve been dealing with depression for over 25yrs. Do you take anything for it? If you do you may just need a med adjustment if no, get on them. I can’t function without them. I have everything I need in my life but I still suffer with depression too.
Unlike some idiotic beliefs…depression does not get better with time…
Once you are diagnosed you will stay diagnosed until it is cured. I suggest going to regularly see a counselor. They might even consider putting you on antidepressants until you are cured.
There is some reason why you are depressed…and you won’t get better until you are cured. The reason might be long gone, but you are still left with that disease.
Yeah I am on medication and yeah I have daily exercise, But even with the medication im still feeling like this
See your doctor and tell him what you have told us. Try a higher dosage.

i love it in the movies when they figure out what it is that’s bothering them and wal la it’s all better! bullshit your brain is like a computer storing all kinds of crap that never gets deleted. but may get weaker or stonger over time.
