I'm glad you recognize you need help ted. For a lot of people that's the hardest part. Just remember that that need for help won't go away, and that it's nothing to be ashamed of

Thank you. I've been two the mental hospital twice since and it's been a rough ride trying too find the right meds. I'm now on 8 narcotics, medical marijuana, and a plethora of other medicines.

Hi Ted! I can relate to you so much! I reached out to a psychiatrist and was diagnosed with depression only this year, after years that I've been struggling alone. I also started taking meds. I feel that this step- reaching out for help, is such a huge step for yourself, it just means you are brave and strong and are willing to make a change for the better ☺️

Welcome, Ted, we get it here. I’m glad you’re reaching out! I’m going to a psych appt next week to get more help too. The world is tough. Brains are rough.
