Hi. I've been struggling with depression for a long while now - it's probably now 5 years since I felt calm, contented and happy. I've had quite a lot of domestic, emotional and relationship changes over this period and am now at a point when I really can't see any light at the end of the tunnel. Will it ever get better.
I'm on ADs - 15mg mirtazapine at night does help with sleep and GP has recently increased sertraline dose, which I take in the morning, from 50mg to 100mg. It's only been two weeks of this increase, taking 50mg and 100mg on alternate days.
Today is a bad today. Woke up with lots of suicidal thoughts and a feeling of no hope that things will get better. I read a lot about the good things to do but some days just really struggle to do them - drink plenty of water, eat healthy, exercise, meet up with people, talk to people, journal stuff - today I just want to curl up in a ball and can't face doing anything.
Would love to get some advice or hear success stories.
