Does anyone else with severe depression cry all the time??

[dust-in-the-wind]

Sometimes I can go days without crying even though im still severely depressed. Other days I cry constantly. My depression is chemical and treatment resistant. I am 57 now and my life is essentially over. The only reason I made it this far is some meds would work for years so I could at least function. Nothing has worked now for 3 years. But the crying is the worst. I really need to end it but I'm so afraid. I read depression takes 20 years off your life so I must almost be there.

I'm so, so sorry, I wish I could offer you some comfort.

But yeah, I cry every day too. Just lying there, wailing. It's the worst.

I should be crying all the time ... but I never do. Like ever. I'm unable to cry for some reason. I just feel like an empty void.

I am sorry to hear about the pain you are going through :(

I cry a lot. Especially in bed at night thinking about this unfair life or while arguing with family.

yes, i cry as soon as i wake up. i cry while im making coffee. i cry on and off all day because im so tired of living but also so afraid to go through with it

Last year I cried multiple times a week, but this year I just feel kinda dead and empty inside. Now I probably cry like once a month at most, but I just have the constant feeling in the back of my mind that something is going horribly wrong or on the verge of collapsing. It's hard to describe.
