Why wont anything work?

[Concernedgal]

It's the same thing day in and day out. I wake up, I drag myself out of bed although every bone in my body wants to stay in bed, I sometimes eat breakfast but, not always. I go to work and push through my day even though I don't want to be there but, bills to pay , mouths to feed. I come home . Then I go back to bed. Sure, people say , go out, be socialable . I cant, I just cant. I seek help and all they want to do is put me on pills. No real solutions. I've tried taking there advice and taking the anti depressants but, nothing helps. It only makes things worst. Talking to a professional costs too much . What are you supposed to do? I'm at the end of my rope here. I hate that I don't have the ability to be happy. Can't tell a doctor this because it's always take this ,take that. I'm tired of trying to search for a solution . Unfortunately the only thing that does work, benzos , they won't prescribe them to me. Why? Why would they purposely keep something like that away? I'm just sick of trying. Losing hope. Please guys. Do you guys have another idea of what might help me?

I'm sorry you are feeling this way @Concernedgal I don't know what to suggest other than go back to the quack! I know you don't really want to, but he is your best option. Talk to him about the meds in more depth. Ask him why he won't give you what you feel works best. He has to give you answers. I was going to say you could probably find those meds online but I really don't want to suggest that to you. The reason being that the doctor knows what his reasons are. He knows what is safe and what isn't ~ for you!

I found this link on Benzo's just now, as I don't know really anything about that kind of medication. This article says that Benzo's are used as a rape drug. As you aren't being very sociable, it probably would be okay for you to take. Maybe he is just thinking about your safety?

A decade ago I was too was stuck (but no mouths to feed) and perhaps you need to have some purpose for yourself and not others each day? Maybe you need some life changes so you can do the things you want while balancing the home?

Do you have family and friends that can help if you have children, for a couple of days a month, then it will give you time to focus and what you want to do? Maybe get a job you want to do, or a part-time one if finances allow? What does make you happy?

As for meds, people seek them because they feel they work but they are like a band aid, they only cover up the problem. They help some people so that they can carry on each day. That's all they do. The real work to healing is through therapy or the courage to address what is wrong in life and then to change it.
