How can I pull myself up from the depths of depression?

[LifeIsFutile]

I'm at the very bottom right now. I've been on a new antidepressant the last two months, and they just doubled the dose, and I'm feeling worse.

Therapy doesn't work for me. I've tried it for years.

Some of you on here know me. I've been around a while.

Nothing gives me happiness anymore- video games, creating art, writing...

I can't do anything about the one reason why I feel so terrible about myself: my endowment. I was born with a rare reproductive disorder. I'm so lonely.

What happened to you? It's usually have something to do with the loss of something or someone that got you to where you are now? Either that or some other health condition. Was it because of a loss of a job, a close one, such as someone close to you like a friend or family member or relative that had recently passed away, or is it the loss of a recent relationship such as a really awful breakup for whatever reason?

It's in the update. I'm the original asker. Having had a recent breakup isn't helping.

You're right about one thing. Life is futile. In fact it's a complete NO-WIN situation or LOSE-LOSE situation.

Don't be so hard on yourself for the breakup. It can and will happen and that's the bitter harsh reality of it. No relationship or even marriage are ever absolutely guaranteed to last forever, regardless of what you do. Things change, circumstances change, people change, etc. and therefor it has effect on your relationship's outcome.

Just be grateful that you're still alive and that NOTHING is Absolutely Over yet.

Thanks for MHO btw!

Challenge yourself
Get responsibilities and find someone you can be responsible for. Try to achieve something. And don't give up before u even tried it. Do u really want to overcome depression?
Are u good at something?

Get a piece of paper and write on it
Goal: I will overcome my depression in one year. Then think of many smaller goals
