It’s so hard isn’t it. I try to keep ontop of things - especially in the current climate, but once I’m lost in my own thoughts it’s a case of F it, I don’t care, it’s never stuff for me either! Always on others.I’m a spender too. I’m deep in it at the moment

Same. Last time was a trampoline for the kids. Then late last night I ordered a climbing frame that I really can’t afford
[ I just want to tell everyone to go away, and then I feel guilty and ungrateful for thinking that, and so on and so forth… ugh.]
If it's not the best thing for your or mental health I would say no. Don't go into long explanations, just be firm. The more you do it, the less guilty and ungrateful you'll feel. If you keep giving, people will keep taking. Change the script and people will actually respect you more. Please put yourself first.

I’m in a depression/anxiety session. It’s similar to my breakdown 2 years ago but Borderline on the edge of having it/not having it.
everything is overwhelming and finding life soooo hard at the moment. And feeling like I have no friends, going to be single forever and I’m wasting my life!

Me too
. Especially when I can't sleep at night (which is almost every night), I just browse on websites like ASOS and buy s*** that I don't need.And now i'm stressed about my financial situation, but feel like I can't stop spending.
I'm the same , just totted up my amazon spend E500 last couple of months and not a lot to show for it
Hi
I was put on aripiprazole to help with my depression I’m also on five other meds for it but I had to stop taking this as I was getting tardive dyskinesia and couldn’t sleep the issue I have is that was the first med to really help me! I have a review on Friday I just wondered if anyone else was on mood stabilisers/anti psychotics that work and don’t have that side effect so I can ask to trial it. I really haven’t felt so well in a long time that when I was on it… so frustrating

I take Aripiprazole, luckily no side effects, I have taken several other Anti Psychotics and they have all caused extreme weight gain. A good mood stabiliser for me was Lamotrigine. I came off it last year when I started a different med as they contra indicated.Hi

I take Quetiapine alongside 2 antidepressants and the Quet has helped the most since it was added. It’s an antipsychotic which can be added to help with mood.Hi

I haven’t had issues with side effects - whereas with mirtazapine I gained loads of weight, and with venlafaxine I became totally detached.
It might help you to have a full review with someone totally different, if it’s possible? My GP asked for me to see a different psychiatrist, and he has been amazing. Totally reviewed my meds and we’re switching them all (apart from quetiapine!) mostly to ease side effect burden.
Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes helps.
Good luck x
Mirtazapine was evil! I couldn’t stop eating carbs, craving toast at bed time etc. I had real munchies on that. Quet and Olanzapine also caused huge weight gain for me.
I currently rattle with the amount I take and although in a real low at the moment I’m hoping it will pass as I can’t face anymore chances as think I’ve tried everything
.Might be worth seeing if the levels could be adjusted of what you’re already taking? Sometimes that’s enough to help usMirtazapine was evil! I couldn’t stop eating carbs, craving toast at bed time etc. I had real munchies on that. Quet and Olanzapine also caused huge weight gain for me.

I wish I could but unfortunately I’m on the max of everything. I’m waiting to start a TC for my EUPD but the lists are just so long. Luckily I have regular reviews with CPN & Psychiatrist. I just take things hour by hour. Sending love to youMight be worth seeing if the levels could be adjusted of what you’re already taking? Sometimes that’s enough to help us
just had my PIP assessment over the telephone. for depression/anxiety and severe eczema. The lady was nice on the phone I didn't feel like she was badgering me or trying to trick me out. She says decision will be made in 6 weeks
Wishing you lots of luck for the right outcome. Those assessments can be awful.
That’s good! Well done
I’ve been encouraged to apply because of PTSD and depression (been signed off work 2 1/2 years so far
) but I can’t do it for some reason.There’s plenty of online resources to help you apply. Or the CAB can help too. There’s no harm in applying, it helps with additional costs. Mine helps with heating etc as my physical health is worse when cold.That’s good! Well done

Please apply. I put it off for many years and my support worker finally pushed me to take the jump and apply. The form is annoying and the telephone assessment was jarring (not sure how I would have done if it was a face to face assessment.) Definitely worth a try!That’s good! Well done

Sending you good thoughts and hope your feeling a little better xx
I feel your pain I'm gambling alot at the moment
I had the same, I was in a psych ward at the time and they rang me out of the blue with no warning! The assessment only lasted SIX minutes, which I was sure I had failed. However, a few weeks later I did get awarded PIP and i'm so thankful.
Edit: I didn't tell the assessor that I was in a psych ward, just that my Quietiapine had been increased.
Yesterday I felt great, today’s a klonopin taking day. Mental health is a ride 
Also the spending discussion has me side eyeing my behavior. I need all the things I purchase I think lol
