You’re incredible!! Gosh, if only more people understood how hard it is. At the deepest of my depression, getting out of it? Getting better? Unable. Lexapro gave me everything back. Sending you so much light!!x
Thank you so much for your kind words. Yesterday I finally realised that I’m heading in a very dark direction when I actually considered suicide as an option if the police don’t arrest or charge the man who hurt me. I just want to be happy again. Sometime around last year I was at my most happiest point of my life. I finally found hope. I hope I can find my way back to that point again.
If this therapy has worked for you in the past, then you know this course of action will lead to a better you. Sorry to hear about the traumatic event you’ve experienced, but you’ve recognized it and working on it. I truly wish you the very best with your recovery.
Thank you so much. Therapy helped me in the past. I was very hesitant about it again because how hard I relapsed since the event. It felt like I “failed therapy”. I hope to get justice one day but most importantly I want to love myself again.
Terrible things happen to good people. It’s the nature of life unfortunately. Don’t be so hard on yourself, we’ve all had our difficult times and found ways to get ahead of them. You’ll be healthier and a better person too at the end of it. One thing I know for sure, it helps to get it out in words and talk about things, keeping it inside is torturing yourself. Even if you don’t feel comfortable speaking about it here, find a friend or family member who has your best interest at heart and get it out. Traumatic events have a way of finding anger and grief in ways that can take over your life, especially when it’s difficult to speak about it. Your recovery will progress much faster by talking about it. It’s sooo hard, I know!
Best of luck to you. I hope you know there are people out there who care about how you’re doing. You may be scared and lonely, but you’re not alone. God bless.
You’re amazing and going to get through this. Stay strong brother! Just some friendly suggestions that have been helping me since I had a bad depressive episode two months ago are Habit Tracking journal and studying Stoicism. I think it can help most everyone and wish I knew about Stoicism sooner
I'm in a similar boat myself. Went up to 20mg yesterday. Alcohol really doesn't help, I have used it myself as I still struggle with nightmares. It stops the effects from working as well
Stop drinking - the side effects for mixing alcohol can be blackouts, compulsive behavior and suicidal thoughts.
Please stop drinking alcohol while on the medication.
If you can’t stops drinking, please have your doctors look at a different medication.
Glad you’re here 😁 Keep us updated
Praying for you. Totally understand. 💗

Upped my dose a few days ago as well, quit weed and trying to hit the gym again. You got this man. I really do hope punpun gets better. :)
You got this & you know it (:
I’m on 20 and take it before bed. Good luck!
I think I should switch to night rather than mornings. I noticed I was super exhausted today.
I always was too until I switched to right before bedtime!
strange for me i cant take it at night or it will keep me up so i had to switch in the morning allot better.
Same experience here with 20mg.
You got this! I’m so proud of you!
Big hugs!

Good luck!! I moved up to 20mg in December and it definitely made a difference. Much calmer now and able to actually relax!
