They think I can just "snap out of it" and don't understand. Not that I want to die, just can't take this pain anymore. I want the old me back- the happy 1.

No you can't just snap out of it. People who say this to you have not lived in their own personal hell--yet. Seek out a counselor or check out the Experience Project to talk to others going up the same road. The old you will be back, or a variation that you enjoy being more than your old persona. *hugs*

Op here- thank you. I have tried so many things, counseling, meds, acupuncture, hynotherapy, herbals, etc. Feel like I will never be back to the old me. Checked out the Experience Project before. And I wouldn't wish it on anyone...at least I used to feel that way. There is one person...it's mean, I know, but I hope he goes through it and more, for good reason. I had everything I needed- air, water, etc. and was so thankful for my health and all my blessings. Never asked for anything and enjoyed and appreciated the little things. Now? I enjoy nothing. Leave it in the past? What is the secret to doing that?

I feel the same and would like to know the same. How do you get over something (or somebody) that turned your world upside down? How do you find right side up? Ive been in counseling too and on medication for major depression and anxiety. I cant let it go.

Look for tap therapy on Youtube or just watch here http://www.powertochange.me.uk/television.htm It can't hurt and I've known it to work for people.

I am experiencing the same thing. It was worse about 3yrs ago. Thankfully, it has gotten better, but I don't feel the same as I once did, happy and "alive", and I am afraid that I will never be the same. I never imagined that I would be a person who feels so low. In one sense, I am glad that I am going through this, as it is allowing me to understand those who are truly in pain and depressed, on the other hand, it scares me. If I could just "snap out of it", I would. People who have never felt this way just don't get it. I don't want to be like this for the rest of my life. I have hope that it will get better. Don't give up. Just hang in there, as lame as that may sound.

Thanks but I just can't take it anymore. Don't know what else to try. I am planning on going away and will not be coming back.

I know how you feel. It really started last year after I lost a really good job because of some a-hole that was my supervisor. I loved my job, I was good at it. I have not been able to find another pizza delivery job because of him.
