depression
    #7079974 - 06/22/07 02:33 PM (16 years, 7 months ago)

I know i dont post here often at all, but i know most people here are like me, lately i have been going through really bad depression, suicidal thoughts and what not, ive been using cocaine which i have easy access too and some good money saved unfortunately and getting drunk alot to deal with it, with my family i try my hardest to hide it all completely, i want to get medical help(anti depressants hopefully), i have health insurance with my family, im 20 living at home by the way, but that would require talkin to my mom about it because ive had the same doctor whos friends with my mom for the majority of my life, and getting into this with my mom is out of the question, shes really sweet but a complete emotional wreck and this would drive her over the edge, what can i do? I need help, i even feel weird talking to my close friends ab out this.

thanks

Ask the doctor to be confidential, I'm pretty sure it's a law or something. Or maybe that's only for shrinks. But I'm sure he'll understand.

Working helps me with bullshit thoughts and keeps me from dwelling on my shortcomings. It also provides me with satisfaction at times as well. Do you work?

doctor patient confidentiality. just make sure he knows not to talk about it with your family and he won't.

edit: doctor patient confidentiality can be broken by them believing you are a danger to yourself or others; be sure he's not too worried about you.

Something tells me that if you are depressed now, you will continue to be depressed except completely doped up on anti-depressants. Try to change the things in your life you are depressed about, and things will change. Anti-depressants are bad for you and when you try to get off of them it makes the whole situation worse. Sunlight and nature is a fantastic anti-depressant.

Get active and occupy yourself. Medication might keep you chill and all, but it doesn't make your problems go away.

All i can tell you is that good food, exercise and having an interesting hobby, is GREATLY UNDERESTIMATED in helping fight depression.

Antidepressants will only mask any problems that are causing you to be depressed. I've been on a few antidepressants, and most of them made me feel more depressed or just made me feel like i had no emotions at all except emptiness.

Some side effects from Antidepressants are fucked up, like i started taking Zoloft and it made me feel insanely depressed, but at the same time i felt agitated like i really had to DO SOMETHING and if you put being suicidally depressed along with wanting to act on any feeling you are having, it could be a recipe for suicide.

obviously antidepressants can help some people but when they do help, all you are doing is living a life you not supposed to, being depressed is you mind saying to you, "hey i don't like this situation, change it"

Antidepressants aren't nearly as good as they sound, they will not make you feel "happy", just numb, not a good numb either.

I hope you can work through any problems in you life no matter how hard they are and start eating good food and exercise.
You CAN do it no matter how hard it seems.

:thumbup: Wise words.

A link to the effect of cocaine from erowid. http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/cocaine/cocaine_effects.shtml I'm pretty sure this won't help any depression. So instead of getting on more drugs from your doc, try getting off some first.

Wonderful advice. anti-depressants are a superficial fix. They treat symptoms, not root causes. Make changes in your own life. Toss out the blow and get active. Pursue some dormant interests and become more independent, maybe start reading/writing down your thoughts.

Best of luck.

Get some help, man. If you can't see the one doctor, see another. Get something to help you relax and get some good sleep. Take some melatonin. Eat right. Get some exercise. Quit using coke. That shit will turn you inside out. Stay away from your sources and take some time to get your shit together. And find someone to talk to. Even if you have to go to a 12-step program and find a mentor, find someone to talk to who's been there. Life is hard enough without doing coke, without having those chemicals messing with your mind and aggravating your depression. By all means get some anti-depressants.

And never ask for medical advice on a discussion board. If we were qualified doctors, we'd be on some other board somewhere, talking doctor shit.

You can get through this. You can feel better, about yourself and your life. Good vibes to you, man. I wish I knew how to help you better. Good luck to you.
