Diagnosed With MDD
I was just diagnosed with MDD. A couple of weeks ago I was feel really bad then the other week good and faithful and now I'm back to feeling worthless and useless. I'm struggling with faith, leaving my anxieties to God and feel extremely guilty. I also feel like I can't talk to anyone anymore. I'm scared to take medication for depression and I feel like I'm just spiraling. (I am in therapy) I somewhat feel like it's not enough. Any advice ?
I know how frightening and discouraging it feels right now. But you can find a way to a better spot, I promise.
This is a great place to do that. We can start a conversation thread here and start to work through some things for you.
Depression is really brain chemicals going wrong. You aren't in complete control. Is there a reason why meds scare you? I know they scared me too at the beginning. I actually take very little medication now and I am stable.
But it all takes a while and you have to be patient. Having friends on here who understand helps. @scarletCherry3980
