Do I Need To Be Sectioned?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have been feeling down for so long and pretending that I am happy in life that I can't even remember the last time I was actually happy or tell the difference between me faking happiness or actually feeling it! I have everything I want in life but it still isn't enough for me to want to live. I think about killing myself almost everyday and I don't know how to stop or why I feel this way. I have taken some online psychological test as they keep coming up with bipolar but I'm not sure. From… read more

Oh my dear, if your partner is like that ,,, its probably the reason why your depressed. Hes a misogynist does he think so little of you, that its okay to treat you like your worthless. Counselling honey, or relate, and if he wont come, then ask him to leave. It makes him feel important in order to put you down. There is nothing I mean nothing about calling you those hurtful names and he thinks its okay. Ask him why is he here?? no ask him in therapy. Right theres self help books, and a Woman in my own right!!! is the one I should suggest you reading. also men who hate woman and the woman who love them. hoping and wishing hed change. Do a search for them on ebay or amazon, Dr sasan forward, and get yourself mended. This is like chineese torture over time. I never realised how low I had got, and my meds were just not working so well, it happens very slowly, so slowly that you dont realise, and,,,, if you had a good support system, set up, your friends should have noticed,,, !!!! so get to that doctor to increase the dose or,,, change the meds.

If it make you feel better, ask him, what does it feel like being a twatt. ? and when he starts,,, say to him,,, oh lovey,,,, I was only joking,,,, whats up you cant take a joke... smile to yourself. check mate. Start being nice to yourself, like get a new hair style, often a drug after effect, was to gain a lot of weight, I put on 6stone in no time, and dont forget, your not as active as you were. So ask doctors advice. Go to slimming world,, learn to eat healthy and treat yourself well, join a night course of something that interested you. If he trys to poo hoo it, its because hes trying to control you. A healthy person would support you, if he lets you down at the last minute its his way of controlling you, or he causes a row,,,, hes trying to make you feel bad. You would be better off living in a cardboard box than listen to his crap!!

Then when your feeling better, and on your tablets, start living how you would like to live, its your life, live it!!! pick colours that make you feel nice, and paint the walls that colour, I found, my mood started to shift, when your feeling better , go for a walk, or for a swim, or join a womans group, learn something new. Start planning your future. Take better care of yourself.

Sorry I have only just seen the other replys, sorry, you must go see a doctor, if he dont listen, its like hes being paid for doing nothing, see another one, and another one, until someone does listen, take a friend with you,,,if you see a counsellor, sometimes they will recommend feeback, lol recommend this client is depressed!! or a phone call. You have to realise, every time you see a doctor, the government pays him a wage, as soon, as you come out of their, make an appointment with another gp, until all of them, are exhausted. If you have a friend, (your boyfriends got rid, of them all right?) go to another practise, Remember he is there to provide a service, to you. If your down period has lasted more than two weeks,,, then you know, you need to see a gp,,, and that goes for, any of you lot that read this... This is a good indication something isnt right.

Just think the quicker you do this hopefully the quicker your going to feel better.

I so totally agree with Linda. I would say a lot of your depression is caused by your partner its called emotional abuse and controlling. I have been there and chose to get out best thing i did but it takes a long time to get back your confidence and self worth. Emotional abuse can be so damaging no one should have to put up with that!! You should research on mental abuse and controlling personallys. Take care hope this helps. No one should put up with it.

Please seek help. You mentioned you tried and didn't get a call. Pick the phone up and call them again. If you don't get any satisfaction from them. Try someone else. I know it's hard to reach out when your so down. I'm cheering you on to make another call.
