.…It has been nearly three months now going once a week at fifty dollars a week, i even could not make it for a month at one time and still no problems, I was initially spending about 700 a month on visits to doctors and pills. This man saved my life and my family.. I now live a normal life can hold my job and take care of my family as a mother should do….
From my own experience with psychiatrists, it sounds like you were well and truly over-medicated. I would have been looking at a second opinion by that stage. The fact that you have found an alternative practitioner that can control the symptoms for you is awesome! I am truly happy for you.
Do forums help because you see your not the only person going through something? or do they help because it is like writing a book, you can vent what your feeling? xox
One, both or neither of those may apply. Each of us has our own reasons for posting here and for reading the posts of others. It is going to vary with the individual. For me, neither of those applies.
….Suicide is the easy way out !....
Sorry, but I cannot accept that as a blanket statement covering any mental illness. It may be true of some illnesses and some sufferers but it does not hold true as a generalisation. Someone in the grip of severe clinical depression simply cannot experience joy of any nature. It is simply impossible for them to do so. The world is black!!!
The buzz you get out of your snakes, for example, would totally disappear. If you replaced all your snakes with house bricks, that’s what looking after them and handling them would be like. It does not matter what you do, there is absolutely no feedback from it and no point to doing it. Existence is pointless.
Many, if not most sufferers of severe depression also suffer from anxiety at the same time. Add the two together and there is one logical thing to do.
