I’m in the same boat. I was off my meds for a few months because I didn’t think they were working & found out that I was even worse without them. My doctor added 25 & 50mg to my dose and I’m feeling much better! It was a good 4/5 months that I was struggling though, so I’m hoping this is a good fot

I am 29 years old and make a lot of money. I feel very guilty when I see people on social media who can’t afford the same things I do. When family or friends ask me what I do I downplay what I do by saying “I’m just an accountant. it’s not all that great” when in reality I love what I do and I love the lifestyle I have. hopefully not a humblebrag because I’m assuming a lot of people here are at or near the same earning level and can relate.

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?
