Hey Richard,

I think it's good for you to check in regularly on the site, as you are doing, so that you don't feel alone in your  troubles.  I speak openly about my depression, things are so much different now and I'm sure  if you have a trusted friend that you can open up to you may find that  helpful,.  I don't  think that there is one family that isn't affected by mental health issues in one way or another.  I have a 21 year old son who I feels grapples with  depression but  I cannot get him to seek help or open up about it.   My coverage allows me to call the. Telephone number on the site and speak to a psychologist directly....perhaps yours does too?  Did you  consider venting on this site...it is anonymous and  it would allow you to get the feelings that are bottled up inside out by typing instead of saying it out loud?  Maybe you can email a health care worker directly?  I hope the medication begins to help you through this down period.  Hang in there!

Hi everyone, Eleveno: i live in a small town so I don't think I'll be able to see my doctor. His waiting list is 3 weeks from now. But i can always try if i need some help. And i now realise that i shouldn't have taken more pills than I was prescribed. I was just having really bad thoughts and i just took them to help me go to sleep quickly so I wouldnt do anything. And i guess i could try the program on the site and see if it helps me. And tonight a few of my friends and i went to the bars and had a couple drinks and i told my best friend that I was depressed and i almost started to cry. So it is really hard to talk about it to people. Linda: i alway hope that the next day will be better. But so far the past few days have been the same. I truing to force myself into doing the activities that i used to do that i enjoyed but i just cant get these thoughts out of my head. I try playing my music as loud as i can on my headphones but it is starting to slowly not work. Get my mind off things for a bit. And i am 20 years old right now. I have probably had depression for a year to two years. Probably even longer. And i hope this site helps you feel better too. We can all get through this. Vincenza: I'm thinking about counselling. I'm trying to get the numbers of different ones but im just worried about how I will deal with it since I can barely talk about my problems without feeling really hurt. Maybe I could just stay by talking to my doctor about everything. But thank you everyone. I greatly appreciate all the help you guys are giving me. Even though we haven't really talked about my problem, just about other things like how I can get help you guys really helped me. I would have been lost. It's nice talking about things in here. I hope I can get through this quickly. And start feeling positive again.

Hi Richard1994, 

I'm sorry to hear you've had a rough day.  I hope you do give counselling a try.  It may not be for everyone -but it may be something that is helpful to You.  Try to go into it with an open mind and call around to find a therapist you connect with.  Finding someone you can not only trust but to help you process your pain and learn healthy ways to cope is invaluable.  
Know that you also can reach out to us on the online support group as well - we're here for you!
Vincenza, Health Educator

Hi richard1994
 
I am sorry for the way you feel now, but things will get better, just hang on. Pay attention to follow the indications of your doctor, do not take more medication than prescribed by your doctor. You don't need to wait for the next appointment in 3 weeks. If you do not feel ok just go and talk with your doctor, you are still working to find the right medication for you. And if you feel that your doctor in not helping you you have to find another doctor. But give time since medication doesn't work overnight.
 
Regarding counseling I never found it much useful, except for a few ocasions where I was really stressed and needed to talk with someone. But everyone is different and I think it is a question of trial and error. I prefer CBT where one learns to be their own therapist.

I hope you have a good weekend as well. And thank you for the positive words but unfortunately today was a very bad day for me. So now my question is if anyone knows it counseling helps. I heard that it doesn't really help. And i also don't like talking about my problems but if i go to counseling I'd have to and hope that I feel better. I took 2 of my seroquel pills just now to hopefully make me feel a bit better. And idk if i can wait till my next appointment in 3 weeks if i keep feeling like this. It's getting harder and harder to go through the day. I had to get our of my house for a few hours and walk so i wouldnt do anything. I just don't know what to do. My doctor said I can always talk to him too when I am comfortable but i dont think i ever will. Just hurts to much to talk about it. Is there anything I can do that will help. Sorry if some things don't make sense in this post. Thank you.

Bad few days...the yo yoing really gets to me. Feeling overwhelmed & stressed. It has been one thing after another and my coping skills are pretty well non-existent. Trying desperately to get in a positive frame of mind but stuff keeps happening....front door is rotting so had to be replaced, stove top got cracked, oven not working properly, leak in the ceiling is not the shower but the copper pipe ...numerous bills keep coming in and on going trust issues with my son. I have no idea when he's telling the truth or not and it makes me really sad. He claims that he put a gym membership on hold as he's living here for the summer but they have no record of it and the full charge got deducted from my bank account, he says they didn't give him a copy,,,,he gets so deep I to a lie that he has to see it through, I have always said that the lie is worse than whatever it is he's lying about. I am such an honest person and gave up my career to raise my son (21) and daughter, now 19, that I can't believe he's like this. I question whether or not he is a good person and that alone makes me feel awful. My daughter is nothing like him....she is responsible, trustworthy and reliable. I had a great relationship with my son growing up but it all changed when he was in highschool. He is obsessed with stuff and money and begrudges that we don't do more for him.....we gave him a car, pay for the insurance, paid for his 3 years of post-secondary, etc. we at beginning to distant ourselves from him financially as he is not a student at the moment. I value my principles above all and wonder what happened to his? It's sunny out so I am going to force myself to go outside to try to put things into perspective.
