you need a certified therapist not a psychiatrist necessarily. The medications you taken are just a coping business they had on you, the have no obligation to get you better because if they lose you as customer where's their money?

I'm no longer single, root cause of all of this is due to relationships. So both of us going to see physiatrist together next week to solve our problems.

True also. I was shocked when I made the payment. Consultation fees cost RM200. Medication RM300. But I know I need something to stop the monkey mind first. Thanks for the suggestion, will look out for therapist see if helps.

there are many areas when it comes to therapy. Find a person to identify your symptom you will need a prolonged session ie trauma release when it comes to self limitation kind of thing, dont pay money onto something that didnt serve you just because of sunk cost fallacy

How old are you TS if mind asking ? Early 20/30 or late 20/30.

By the way as another member said you need a psychologist/counsellor/therapist because physiatrist will just keep giving you pills to temporarily rest your mind. You need to solve the root cause to this. If relationship is the issue, perhaps look for couple therapy. I wish you well.

I went to my usual GP and was prescribed Xanax. I am almost to the point of abusing it because the dosage given to me no longer works. I don't really depend on it now because I still have to face my issues the next day.

I am in my late 30s here and dealing with stagnant life (in every aspect)
I feel like I have to live this way on autopilot until my last breathe for my sanity. Sometimes when the body and mind can no longer take it, you will be numb automatically as a way to cope.

Agree. Medications can be a cope
my relative had depression over 2 decades and they still havent changed themselves completely aka being a victim in every aspects of their lives. Lose money, lose respect lose job lose friends as well

A total delusion and downward spirals
