For the past few days I have been in a state I have never been before. I am so depressed and anxious I have lost interest in life, in school, in friends; in everything that has meant the world to me in the past, My phone has been off for the past two days and all I do is go to school and home. I have lost what is important to me. I don't know how to regain my passion for life and living. The doctor has me on prozac and valium. Alternative methods of solving this problem are of no use to me; they don't work. I have tried meditation, yoga, exercise, vitamins, therapy....nothing. I can't sleep at all at night and I am beginning to become manic. When I do sleep my dreams are outrageously weird and scary sometimes.
Any suggestions?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
If your meds aren't working tell that fooking doctor to get his act togeather and sort you out with a different pre-scription or a counsellor maybe? C'mon mate law school, fucking hell!!! You're bright, you have a future...man you have a helluva lot going for you did you really get this far to give up now? That sounds really lame but you just need to get that sleep sorted first I think. Don't give up it's totally not worth it!!!!!
no1 priority - what started this?
if it isnt something that triggered it it could be chemical.
just keep taking meds and seeing a therapist for some cognitive work... i have been told this might work for me, and people say its quite good - but i havent tried it yet.
i dont know what else to say really.
keep telling people you trust how you feel, even if you think you dont deserve it.
