I want to give up
I was diagnosed with dysthymia several years ago.
Medication helps, but I'm really struggling right now.
I also have several chronic medical conditions that are making things worse.
My psychiatrist thinks it's peri/menopause.
My gyno thinks it's mental health.
I'm going around in circles. The gyno has agreed to see me, but not until May.
I have to keep going, I have kids, responsibilities. But I just want to stop.

Re: I want to give up
Welcome, @tf37 , I'm sorry to hear 😢
Do you have a psychologist to talk through things with? (Or maybe your psychiatrist does that?)
I can definitely empathise.
A handy forum tip to tag someone is to type @ and then click on their name in the drop-down box - that way they'll get a notification that you've replied to them.

Re: I want to give up
How are you feeling this morning @tf37?
I wondered if there are friends who you talk to about your struggles, or family? People who can lighten the load?
