Nina,
I am so, so, sorry to hear you in such pain. I wish there was something I could do more to help, but know that here you can find all the support you need. People here have helped me through so much and I know they can help you to.
For now all I can tell you is to try to keep yourself calm and know that life, no matter what is worth fighting and living for. You didn't mention your age, but I was a dancer to quite a while ago.
It might take some time, but there are meds and methods out there that will help you, you just have to be patient. This situation is not going to fix itself immediately. I have had to learn this the hard way also. It will be a struggle, but you have to remember the strong person that you are and you can defeat this.
I understand how you feel. I have days when I think I want to just end it all, but when I really think about it, I want to live, I just want what is going on with me mentally to stop so I can live my life outside of my house like a normal person. I also look at my children and know what ending my life would do to them.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES GIVE UP!!!! You have a purpose here and you will see it in time, but taking yourself out of the picture is not an option. Remember, it is a combination of mind, body and spirit. It's easier to give up than it is to fight.
Take a look at all you have been through and you made it this far. I know that life can seem very overwhelming. I have extremem GAD, panic and agoraphobia. I have tried every slew of meds and am still struggling to find the right one, but I will keep fighting until I do. There is an answer for you. Don't put a huge burden on yourself by trying to figure this out quickly. Take it one day at a time. Small baby steps. Try not to focus on the past or future right now. Just focus on the present. Stay in the moment and keep repeating positive thoughts to yourself. Do it enough and it will help drown out all of the negatives or at least be able to help you manage them better.
Tell yourself everyday that there is an answer and you will find. Put the good energy out there, not the negative.
All of us here are going through our own personal hells, but we will all get through one way or another.
Promise me that you will keep reaching out here. It will be of great help to you. The people here are very supportive and knowledgeable. It would help if you could tell us what you have taken and what your experiences were.
Believe in yourself and do not give up!
Courtney:-)
