Depression and sucidal
I have been going through depression from more then 3 yrs now and tried to contact a doctor who gave me meds and I am scared to take meds as m going through other medical issues as well. It's been 6 months now that I visited doctor and never had meds and never got strength to meet doc again. I want to talk to someone and explain what I feel as my bad and negative thoughts overcome me day by day. I try to control my thoughts all the time as I m only person to care my mother. But controlling myself with patience now is getting over inside me and all the time I feel suicidal. I am going through this from 3 yrs and it's a story of 10 yrs that stood me at this place that I want to talk to someone and can't find a doc to take long session to understand me I do not want to take medicine unless someone listen to me with patience. It's just pushing me to bad day by day.. any doc who can take a entire session to listen and help me?

Hello, I hear you and it feels like you have been going through a lot. What i can understand is you want someone to listen empathetically to you. You have been patient in dealing with this and you do not wish to take medication and that is okay. Whenever you get suicidal thoughts, just take a step back from your thoughts and try to seperate your emotions from your actions. It may seem like the best option at the moment but there are other options too. You can book an appointment with me via practo Some of the suicide helpline numbers are:

Hi! You need to consult a clinical psychologist who will explain u the meaning and relevance of ur symptoms as well as give u therapy. Depression is extremely debilitating esp when it is severe. So I ustd what u might be going thru with no knowledge of why it is happening. At the same time do not be afraid of medicines. Medicines help u get back on track by lowering the intensity of ur symptoms so that u can start applying the learning’s of therapy. Gradually as therpay progresses medicines are tapered.
Next Steps
Visit a clinical psychologist asap

Hi Dear.. I can understand your situation. You were perfectly fine before 10 years, and you were moderately good before 3 years. And now the situation has taken control over you. Your past vulnerable experiences and thoughts took these many years to ripen and to gain strength to deteriorate your mental strength.It is good sign that you have realized that medicine is not the permanent solution. Your suffering is because of significant change in your thought pattern in an disapproved way. Setting up your thought patterns using multiple methods again in a right and appropriate direction is the only way to see yourself happy and contented.
Good luck.
