MDJunction to me

saralaurie"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

so, just looking at filling out this diary entry content page makes me anxious and scared.  anyway. I found this mdjunction site on google and I've been looking through all the mental health tags and it started scaring me cause it was like, Body Dysmorphic Disorder? got that. Bipolar? sounds very familiar. Depression. Anxiety. Mixed states and hypomania in bipolar.  Stuttering support group.  Social Anxiety. I'm only *technically diagnosed* with major depression and anxiety, but all of the things I'm seeing here sound so much more familiar and help make more sense of why being treated for just my depression and anxiety isn't working at all.  I wish it would work.  I feel hopeless and fucked up beyond repair but I want and need to accomplish amazing things in life!!!!! that sounds ridiculous, I feel pathetic, I feel nearly suicidal every day and don't know how I'm going to get through any of this.  I feel like I'm wasting my life trying to just figure myself out.  I need to do more than this!!!!! I feel self-centered and horrible for not being able to do more for other people and I hate myself a lot and I could keep going like this forever but I'm shutting up now.

just as you found the experiences in other people's postings familiar, i'm sure others can relate to what you're describing here- i know i can...
sometimes it's day by day, sometimes hour by hour... it can take a long time to find the things that make you/me work better- diet, sleep, meds, etc but it is possible...good luck!
