    I think this may be hit or miss. I’m in therapy, but the effects are minimal. Then again, I may just be ‘too sick’. I don’t know.

    I think people are trying, and that’s great. But I know I’m losing my battle. It’s just matter of time. Nothing I do changes this.

    Just me though. Good luck to y’all, the world sucks right now.

      There are several different types of therapy, so you might try a different one if you haven’t yet.

      Mental health treatment is often a game of throwing different stuff at the problem until something sticks.

          I’m always happy to try to share ways to help that people might not be aware of.

          Have you looked into Mindfulness as well? It’s more or less guided meditation, but studies have shown it to be extremely effective in treating depression. It’s basically rewiring the way you think, and IIRC there’s evidence of actual brain structure changes.

            I’m sorry, but mindfulness is not directly related to guided meditation.

            Mindfulness is about being present in the current moment, not focusing on individual thoughts or feelings, the past or the future, but instead acknowledging and accepting them and allowing them to come and to pass.

            Haha, to be honest I’ve tried pretty much everything I could find in the past three years. My therapist has gone from recommending lifestyle changes to (literally his last suggestion) ‘find a girlfriend’* lmao

            Yeah I gotta change therapists. But yeah I’ve tried em all pretty much. My psychiatrist suggested electroshock last time. So I may use that to go out hahahahahaha

            But yeah.
