    I am suffering from very VERY bad depression amongst other things.
    I am tired of people telling me to turn to Pieta House etc because they do nothing. (Not for me anyway)

    I have attended a gp, pscyatrist, psycologist, nurses, occupational therapists and not one of them has been able/willing to help me. That probably sounds like I am the one in the wrong, but its not like that. I am so open to everything to make me feel better.

    The best i get is firing all sorts of medications at me that dont work. I have been put on stronger meds, different meds etc and nothing.

    And then i get "take one day at a time". Thats the problem im unable to. Every second of every day is torture. I feel like all doors in front of me are being shut in my face.

    Has anyone any advice?

    Thanks

    Might be a strange suggestion but have you ever attended a group support meeting or group workshop??

    While a lot of things are currently suspended due to covid i do believe some groups by aware are being conducted online.. Sitting amongst peers having similar struggles might help.. Do you see a psych outpatient doctor every month or three currently, they may be able to suggest similar within the HSE
