sorry to hear you've been struggling. I was in the same point of my life, as well, and I know how scary it is to have no control over your health or really any part of your life. I've been diagnosed with depression, bpd, and panic disorder and the bpd is most debilitating. It's been years and over 30 medications before finding the recipe that works best for me as an individual and yes, I thought the same thing about my psychiatrist just pulling at straws but unfortunately that's how it works sometimes. My suggestion is to keep trying to find support like a support group at a behavioral hospital or something. I'm not a doctor but maybe talk to your psych about other options like inpatient, IOP, or day hospital if you're really struggling. that's what I had to do to remain stable.
once again, bring all of this stuff up with doctor first and foremost.
