Struggling with simple everyday life tasks
Hello, I've had MDD since the end of 2023. I've been on so many different psychiatric meds, been hospitalized twice. I was a HS teacher and worked on a very toxic environment. I left it and for a few years managed to work part time doing other things. But the financial load was eating me alive supporting a family of 6 and my partner didn't work. I returned to teach HS but I only lasted 3 months.
I can't sleep, just toss and turn all night long. I forgot the last time I slept for three straight hours. Besides chronic insomnia for which nothing has worked, I have chronic constipation. I have tried everything and nothing is working.
A few months ago, my partner left me and divorced me. I am now homeless, couch surfing in an older brother 's home. I barely even have anyone to talk to.
I don't know what else to eat. No appetite anymore. No bowel movements. Life just hurts.
People I talk to just tell me I need to have faith, be positive, stand up. But with all these physical health issues, I don't know what else to do. Showering is tough.
Anyone going through a similar situation?
