Mental health TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of depression and anxiety.
So I have been dealing with depression and severe anxiety for awhile now. I’m planning on going to therapy this week or next. My anxiety has been so bad I give myself stomachaches, I get anxiety when I eat and I have a hard time sleeping now. Recently I have been faced with depression. Fights at home with siblings has been left looming on my mind. I have no motivation to do school work. I lost motivation for dancing which used to make me forget everything and be happy but now I just dread going to practice. My best friend which is my older sister, we’re fighting. She hates me pretty much for no reason. I feel like no one understands me and I just don’t want to deal with anything anymore. I just want to cry most days and do nothing. None of my other friends ask me how I am. I’m always the one picking everyone else up when they need it but no one does that for me. I’m left picking myself back up, telling myself it’s going to be ok, telling myself I don’t deserve to feel like this. Nothing gets rid of my anxiety. I’ve tried everything. I went to therapy before and the therapist did nothing. She thought I was fine and told me I didn’t need therapy when clearly I do. I’m going to be going to a different therapist soon like I mentioned somewhere above. My family doesn’t truly know how bad my depression and anxiety actually is. I haven’t been on any medication for any of this ever but nothing seems to help anymore and I’ve seen people on anti anxiety and depression medicine and it has worked very well for them. I know I shouldn’t be dependent on medication but honestly nothing is helping. How would I let my therapist know that I think I need medication for depression and anxiety. Any info or your stories would be much appreciated. Thanks.
