The last couple years have crushed my spirit....I had to be put on a very powerful anti-psychotic just to cope with my sad reality. I really don't have anything left at this point, not even my dachshund. I have to wonder if the people around me had any idea how much I was suffering, or if they just couldn't imagine it at all. Either way, they weren't of much help. In fact, their involvement might actually have slowed down my progress. False promises, gaslighting, misguided moral imperatives....Some of them even said it would get better. It never did. If anything, things in my life are in a worse state than ever before. I tried, I did everything I could, everything I was supposed to do, I gave it my all....And I am still not having a good time, nothing even resembling a good time.
You should probably speak with whoever is prescribing the anti-psychotic and let them know that you aren't doing well on it.
That's all I've got. I have tried with you in the past and been burned. I can't expend any more energy on someone who doesn't seem to notice the effort.
Get professional help. None of us here can help you until you help yourself. At this point, helping yourself sounds like asking the right people for assistance.
