You are not alone. Please don't give up. Don't stop trying to get help for yourself. Someday, you will be in a better place, and someone is going to be where you are at now and only you will be able to reach them because you know what it is like yourself.
> I'm so despondent. My depression and binge eating get worse every winter so I finally decided to try light box therapy. I got a SunBox from Apollo and have used it religously for the past month, 30 minutes each morning, sitting close, right in front of it as recommended. Nothing. My weight's the highest it's been for many years. I have no energy, just want to eat and sleep all the time. My excercise routine just gets harder and harder and I become more depressed afterwards 'cause it's just so hard. I cry all the time and am leaving work today. Don't even want to bother going back to PDoc or therapist, though I promised husband I would. What's the use. I have tried over 25 different meds and have had therapy up the ying yang. I just wish I'd die already. This isn't a life and I'm a sorry excuse for a human being. I take up space, more of it, is about it.
