Depression Understood Forums

I know there is no purpose in typing this and will just fade away like my options to treat my symptoms. Yet, here I am typing essentially to myself. I've gone through the gauntlet of medications, alternative methods as well as many ECT treatments. I'm again at this wall where all I can do is sit against it, cry, then choose one of many things to pass my time while trapped. I should be dead but I can't let that choice harm my mother. It is miraculous I've made it this far. I know any amount of success I could make would not lessen my desire to quit life. I know all my barriers, I know all my pathways, I know it will cease to matter when I have no more things to try.

It's important to talk to someone who can help you, like a mental health professional or a trusted person in your life. You don't have to go through this alone, and some people care and want to support you. Your feelings are valid; reaching out for help can be a strong step forward.

I think you need to share with others what you are going through. It will be better.
