Hopeless. Sorry for the negativity.

Feeling a bit hopeless to be honest, in one of those negative moods! I go from being really really agitated, on edge, shaky, anxious and wanting to cry and self harm or do anything but be sat down doing nothing, to being really tired, fed up and lacking in energy with a headache and no motivation to do anything. 

I wish there was a button to press to just make it all stop. I've tried different meds, conselling, cbt, gestalt but I wish there was just an answer which would fix everything. I want to just cry and tell someone but I wouldn't want to burden anyone, because I doubt they'll have an answer too.

    Hi Amy.  It sounds as though you've done really well trying different ways to overcome this problem.  Don't every worry about being a burden, especailly on here as we understand how hard this can be.  If you need to have a good cry/shout/moan about anything then go ahead.

    I don't know if it's one of the things you've tried but have you looked at EMDR therapy?

    Thats m on a good day minus the self harm.

    Their is an answer to your question its called Hakuna matata.

    Or in english stop caring about how you feel or how thew anxiety, depression makes you feel a once you stop caring you will find yourself feeling better even if your feeling lower then hell.

    Sure meds might work for you but they never did for me so after a while i stopped taking them an stopped caring about my problems after all why should i care about something thats ruined my life.
