Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
This may not completely have to do with this group but I am beyond depressed over what happened. I am getting treatment for a few things including an eating disorder. So one of the appointments I have is with the nutritionist. The thing is that I have not really lost that much weight. However, I am not eating near enough that I should because I basically only eat at dinner. Anyways, I do have dizzy spells on occasion but I have adapted to them. I go in the other day to my appointment and my therapist, psychiatrist , and nutritionist are essentially having a meeting about me. I felt ambushed, especially since I was running late and frazzled already. My psychiatrist sat in on my appointment too. It was unnerving to me to have everyone so focused on me. It made me feel awful. Especially since this ultimately became an intervention of sorts. I went to get help.......I have been trying my best to do what they want me to do......yet I still got ambushed like this. I feel so depressed over this. I feel like no matter what I have done, it was not good enough. Like I will never be good enough. I have barely done anything since. I know this may not fully apply to this group but I am depressed over it and maybe I am looking at it all wrong.
You mean accepted them. Impossible to adapt to a dizzy spell when driving or going down stairs, or, or, or.
>>maybe I am looking at it all wrong.
Maybe. My reaction is that you admit you have problems and are graciously seeking professional help to address and RESOLVE them. It sounds like you have a good professional medical team. They are not your enemy. I would look to them to help me .. however they want to go about it. Their meeting with you may have looked like an 'ambush' but they have a lot of other things to do than 'trick you' into an ambush. It may look that way .. but the truth is .. they are trying to help you ... and they are probably very good at it.
