I'm so sorry. I hope that you find help to overcome this. I feel the same but have very severe narcolepsy in addition to depression. Neither helped much with meds.I spend every day in bed, rarely get up for anything. I have no energy to even speak to anyone let alone see or spend time with anyone. 100% isolated and alone 98% of the time. I have a boyfriend of 19 years, we rarely speak Idk why he is still around. When I see him I'm too tired to do anything including talk, haven't had sex in a few years either. . My daughter talked non stop, had a lot of caos, was an alcoholic. She begged me to talk to her just for a minute, she was in the hospital, I still couldn't. Now she's gone, died from alcoholism I feel like the worst mother, she was so alone and needed me so badly I couldn't be there for her. I have a son who is struggling too and rarely able to speak to him. My mom is gone and have nobody else. I lay in bed wasting space, have for 10 years. Contribute nothing to this world. I go to a dr appt once a month, thats it. Friendships all faded away. I don't shower or take care of myself, just too tired. I wanted to be a respiratory therapist but couldn't get through classes, my narcolepsy prevented me from accomplishing much of anything in life. I held hope something would work, help so I could go back to living, I want to live life so much. at 58 its not likely to ever happen. This is a terible way to live. I really hope you can find the help that can get you feeling better. .

I function, barely. I'm 50. I can't accomplish anything. Keep losing friends. It's hard to be sad and tired all the time. It sucks. I can not think of any worse feeling. Questioning why you continue.
We do…We just do. If we do. If we communicate openly maybe we can help prevent more people from feeling this way!
My heart is sick for you. You are doing great. Just sharing your stories helps. That in itself is purpose. Rest and try again. Keep trying! ❤️
