Open Question: I am having a hard time finding a way to deal with my depression issue.?

7 January 2009, 12:10 pm

I have not actually ever had it diagnosed but I have seen a therapist that could give me his opinion and that was that I suffer from both Major Depression and also suffer from Bi-Polar, in his opinion Bi-Polar 1. I have been looking for ways to get help but both my city and state agencies are taking forever to help me out in giving me any type of medical assistance. I have been going through very severe ups and downs as of late and it has been hitting an all time low. I have attempted suicide before and have been honestly considering it again because I am at a point where I don't want to disrupt my families lives anymore. I am nothing but a burden. I am just wanting to see if there is anything that I can do. Any agencies that might be able to help me out in the state of Oregon. Preferred to be in or around Keizer. This is just about my last ditch effort to get help, after this I give up. One thing, I have been calling around seeking a doctor that acts on a sliding scale but I have had no luck. And most of these have told me that they do not know of anyone that works on a sliding scale. Again, I'm 22, male, and I do not have family that can support me and I have no job nor money. Thanks for your time, Drew To add. I've gone down to my local PCC facility here and also had to be admitted to the local ER when I had attempted suicide but they released me in no more then a few hours as they deemed me not a high priority or risk. I would also like to reply to guerrero82's post, I understand that I need money, and a job, but I actually get worse at a job. Right now I'm in an, up, and I am feeling ok but the stresses I feel at work, I don't know how else to explain them, they make me get so down that I end up just breaking down and crying for hours. I am unsure how to go about everything and am just at a loss of where to go in my life and how to get better. I would like to get better but I am just tired of it being the same thing over and over.... Read More »
