Lunar Fox Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hey Tara I hope you're feeling better today. I think it's only human to self analyse when you get a diagnosis, even if you suspected you had the condition. When you see a mental health worker it makes your problems more real because you've chosen to face up to them, so it makes your focus shift. Sounds like you are making progress, please don't give up, now you have the diagnosis you can start to work towards learning new ways and building a happier life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threemoons Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Sorry you're on your own, things will get easier when you've built a supportive circle of people. Is you family understanding of your troubles? Take care, seems that help is coming toward you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara91 Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 They are aware of my diagnosis but I feel I cant trouble them with my issues and they just don't understand what im feeling most the time. I am on 20mg of floxitine (not sure on the spelling sorry) I have been on it for about 26days now and feel more depressed then ever I have a 1 year old daughter and keep falling asleep during the day don't feel like I can do this anymore everyday is a struggle and I just don't have the energy anymore how do people cope with this. I want to just be happy again I want to feel like I have more energy xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threemoons Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Antidepressants can take some weeks to kick in so maybe wait a tiny bit more. I hope it takes effect very soon. Better days will come, please hold on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelermotion Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Limit self-diagnosis. We are not equipped to handle it, even with research. And if you happen to be a real seeker, limit your research/ pondering (easier said than done). I try to stay at one or two ideas a day (with much effort/ failure). Then I have a chance at clairity. By that I mean I stop myself hour by hour, because eventually it turns into self-blame. Also, there is alot of negative media assosiated with this illness, so you need to be VERY picky about which sights you go to. This site is great! But here is an example of something that peaked my interest until I really started reading. http://outofthefog.net/ The description reads "Personality Disorder Support" but the site is not for people actually suffering and looking for answers. A lot of these sites are quite frankly for frustrated "normal" (what?) people, but honestly there are more productive ways to go about things. And the solutions are usually counterproductive but it just goes to show how little we really understand. Our science is still pretty limited/ generalised. This has been one of the most helpfull reads I've come across. Possibly ever. Just take it in small doses. I have still not been successfull applying this in my life but unfortunatly my perception of success is too messed up to know whether that's true, lmao. I hope you find some clairity. http://www.actmindfully.com.au/acceptance_&_commitment_therapy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
