[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 225671, member: 1550"] I've been THAT depressed, and you don't need to nor deserve to feel that way. Forget therapy until you're up to it. Go to a GP and get an anti-depressant. I don't think it's a good idea to use old ones. Then, when you start feeling better, go to your county mental health center and sign up for therapy. I go for free. And this is one of the best therapists I've ever had. How much you pay for a therapist doesn't mean squat. Unlike you, I am maybe not strong enough to try to wait for my depressions to lift. They zap the very life out of me and I need medications to be functional. Right now it is so second nature for me to take my medications I just do it and barely think about it (unless I'm having a senior moment and think "Wait!!! Did I take it or not? LOL) (((Hugs))) Please do this for yourself. I remember being too depressed to even open my eyes. I felt a twist in the pit of my stomach before I was even awake and I could barely lift my lids. I've had so many depressive episodes that I take antidepressants as a preventative. I should probably take a mood stabilizer, but I don't like how they make me feel. I'm blathering now, as usual. But I'm concerned about you and hope you can rouse yourself just one more time, enough to seek out any doctor for help. If you can't afford medications there are many programs to help you get medication for free. Have you applied for Medicaid? Please post again and let us know how you're doing. Trust me, I know exactly how you feel. I've been hospitalized for depression. [/QUOTE]
