Welcome new members, Just wanted to mention, you might get more responses if you start your own threads. Just a suggestion and only if you feel comfortable with that.

Hugs, Karen...

Hi SadMike...

I just spoke to my mother and let her know about my situation. It was hard she liked my girlfriend, x - girlfriend I suppose.I also let her know that I wanted to get some therapy and I have her support. It makes me feel a bit better, but also feel like a failure. I feel very uninspired to do anything lately, I know it will pass but it just so hard to see the lite and the end of the tunnel.

Hi Mike, I'm glad you are seeking therapy, I really think it will help you greatly. It's awesome your mom is supporting you, it should help in your recovery to have a support network standing beside you. I know this is hard but you will get thru it, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, you're just at the start of the tunnel and can't see it yet, but you will. I have faith in you. Hugs.

can your specialist decrease the wellbutrin and check whether it makes a difference? Perhaps it isn't the right medication for you. I required a high measurement for the melancholy and that high measurements issued me sleep deprivation and made me apprehensive. Anyhow, perhaps you could bring down yours and check whether despite everything it assists with discouragement. Effexor is a decent pharmaceutical. I take pristiq. I think they both have comparative advantages. Neither made me tired, however didn't make me apprehensive either.

Getting the bolster you need assumes a huge part in lifting the haze of wretchedness and keeping it away. All alone, it can be hard to keep up viewpoint and support the exertion needed to beat depression, however the very way of discouragement makes it hard to connect for help. In any case, segregation and depression aggravate sadness even, so keeping up your nearby connections and social exercises are vital.
The considered connecting with even close relatives and companions can appear to be overpowering. You may feel embarrassed, excessively depleted, making it impossible to talk, or liable for ignoring the relationship. Advise yourself that this is the discouragement talking. Connecting is not an indication of shortcoming and it won't mean you're a weight to others. Your friends and family think about you and need to offer assistance. Also, recall that, its never past the point where it is possible to assemble new companionships and enhance your bolster system.

Hi sadmike,

I read this thread in it's entirety and couldn't help but notice that we have crossed over into May. Are you doing okay?

A long time ago, I had a girlfriend of about 5 years that left me. She and I had been together long enough for me to decide that I was going to make my entire life about her, and then she was gone. I won't try to give you advice or anything, all I'll say is don't feel ashamed for posting here...and for any of your behavior lately. Watching B-movies with the cats (I have 2) is your perfectly awesome way of dealing with it that others may not understand so if you can, let yourself off the hook a bit. It's going to hurt for a bit but it won't last forever and in the meantime just find your way of dealing with it.

Believe it or not, I look back on that experience I had that is slightly similar to yours and I'm grateful for it. There's some things about life and humanity in general that I would understand quite as well if that hadn't happened to me.

It looks like you're getting a lot of really good advice here as well.

Hang in there, it'll get better.
