Struggling with Medication: Is There Any Hope?

Im feeling really discouraged. I’ve tried maybe four combinations of different medications for my issues and none of them have helped me. Will I ever be better? What if there’s no hope?

i'm in the same boat tbh, but at least research is still actively progressing in this particular field, especially towards non-pharmaceutical treatments for mental health conditions

look into genesight testing! It helps you/your doctor know which medications will probably work best and which will probably give you side effects. It really helped me

there is hope!! over the course of 10 years i have tried so many combinations of meds and none of them worked. got so frustrated. i realized that the dosage means everything. they were always trying to put me on a high dosage when really i only need a small percent, made all the difference! it does take time and it's a painful process. don't give up just yet ❤️

Unfortunately, sometimes finding the right combination of meds for a given patient is a long game. But there IS hope, so please stick it out. Do you have a therapist to help talk things through?
