It seems to me there's not another person or place for me to turn to. The reason I keep going is for the sake of loved ones and the hope that sometime in the near future I might find something that will give me a reason/will/drive to live. What does one do when they've exhausted all resources available? I've tried therapists, medications, been in mental hospitals, have had periods of exercising and engaging in other hobbies. Right now I'm on medication again (despite my lack of faith in them and just therapy in general) as I reached a very low point again. Whenever I look for answers on how to overcome depression, the answers are usually the same- reach out to loved ones, talk to a therapist, get exercise, etc etc.
I don't feel "ready" to give up yet but everything does feel extremely pointless, even more so when the main reason you're putting in all this effort is for others, who do not bring you any solace.
Is anyone else alone in trying to get better?
