Help Desperate for help but there is no help

[symphony]

I'm so fucking desperate to stop hurting. I need help- I so desperately need help-- I have tried every major treatment with no shift in my depression. I couldn't call for help without being hospitalized, professionals don't have any new suggestions for me anymore, and just talking about it is as helpful as putting a bandaid on a tumor. I'm fucking terrified because I can't continue to live like this indefinitely but I can't actually find the help I need either.

Do you take antidepressants ? i had Aripiprazole (5mg) in the beginning it helped me a lot and my depression became better.
When the depression is very strong you could use in the beginning (5mg) if is not enough you could use 10mg i am sure it will help.
And in the night for to sleep ask for mirtazapine it has a reassurance (15mg) i use the same for night and it helped me a lot to sleep good.
I only have chronic pain that does want to go away and sometimes make me crazy and yes sometimes depression is kicking in.
You could go in a day clinic for psychiatry it did the same it helped me a lot i did 5 times in week from 9-16 and it was not bad.

Another suggestion would be:
- Turn to religion (maybe you like?) and it help you to cure you depression.
- Progressive Muscle Relaxation ( Jacobsen)
- Meditation exercises
- Talk to someone that you like and sometimes it help ( maybe when you are crying it help your emotions)
- Diversion

I'm exactly the same. Desperate for solid bonds and love...

It can be difficult to even think of experiments to see how you can gain some degree of control when the walls close in and if feels like you are sinking. To break the grip that something like this can have you might watch a favorite movie, search the internet to reconnect with an old friend, or even something very unusual like taking a cold shower.

Things that you do to make something happen can reintroduce a sense of control and perhaps keep darkness from deepening.

I'm here to chat as a friend off Sasu if it will help by chatting with someone?

I have not a clue which country you currently live in, but I know in some places there are emergency room for people who's mental are in critical condition-voluntarily temporary hospitalization-basically it provides a safer environment against self-harming, stronger drugs treatments, more intensive therapy. The most important thing is that unless you hurt yourself or others during the process, you can leave based on your own decision. I went to places like this a couple of times when things went really really bad during those periods. It is the exact opposite of involuntarily hospitalization.
If there is no such a facility in the place you live, maybe contacts close friends, revisit your happy moments together, in the purpose of taking your mind away form the current awful situation, other than that, watch your favorite movies or read your favorite books would do the same trick.
In any case, wish you well and good luck.

Just because it helped you it doesn't mean it will help others. You really can't be sure of anything when it comes to this stuff.

I appreciate your input but I actually was on that med for several months. Regardless I'm glad you found it helpful.

You could use a higher dosis or combine aripiprazole with an antidepressants (mirtapazine) - escitalopram.
There are so many antidepressants the best way is to go to a psychiatry doctor and ask for help.
Test some different medicament i am sure you will find one that's good for you and hopefully working.
And you should maybe go into therapy there is general nothing wrong with that. I tested 3 different psychiatry
until i found one that listen to my concerns and problems and did take me seriously.

@Hollowman
Why should the lie? or why you think these studis are here? do you think out of fun.

Medicament that i tested when i what in the psychiatry:
- Escitalopram ( Cipralex ) - for day
- Mirtapazine ( Remeron ) - for sleep
- Quetapin ( Seroquel ) - for day
- Aripripazol - for day

Why would they lie? To get filthy fucking rich of course.

Yes that could be true that there are people who are lying and trying tho enrich themselves but that does not mean that antidepressants are not working.

Again I'm glad things have worked for you. I have been in psychiatric care for years and have tried more medications than I can count. I've been on SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, atypical antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and more. I have tried different dosages and combinations of medications.

I do believe that antidepressants are effective for most people as those studies suggest but there are still people for whom they will not work.

I feel you and I'm so sorry. Sometimes I feel like no one understands me. It's even hard to find someone to talk to who will understand you. At the same time I want help, I wanna disappear. It's a horrible feeling.

I found this article about treatment-resistant-depression maybe it help you i am not sure.
But there are some nice facts here that i wanted to share.

4 things we now know about treatment-resistant depression

Imagine being depressed and trying medication after medication—only to find none work. That's the plight of people with treatment-resistant depression. We look at this little-understood condition, and how researchers are working to crack its code.

Have you tried exercise? (helps with anxiety) Do you do any activity during the day, because inactivity doesn't help when you have these kinds of problems.
