How's Life in Lockdown

You can try cholecalciferol-D3.
I know it will not have equivalent effect but taking it will help keep you float for some time more just above the waters....
Also,I suggest you to get nexito plus or any generic equivalent.
Well,I am not a doctor but been through depression and doctor suggested it as alternative to a patient suffering from anhedonia. Try it out...d3 is available to anyone and is not addictive...
PS I am not a doctor and this advice should be considered my personal opinion.Please do not consider it as a substitute to medical prescription by registered physician.
 
Yeah, I have vitamin D3 which I regularly take.
I have close to 30 antidepressants/sleep medicines/antipsychotics/brain chemistry altering drugs mostly lying around
Have tried SSRIs, SNRIs, TCA, antipsychotics, lithium, Lamotrigine and some natural supplements/aids mostly in combo(augmentation.)

Was suggested ECT but I denied, also got to know ECT is not allowed to be used on minors in india.
Have tried rTMS though

Currently taking MAOI tranylcypromine, known to be most powerful approved antidepressant, can't comment about ketamine (I was/am the first and only patient in RML given this medicine)
Can't take SSRI, SNRI with MAOI, doing so will almost certainly put me in hospital.

Been to 15+ doctors from top private hospitals in india, but the best doctor I went to is from RML, nice doctor, even allows me to come without appointment, don't have to stand in long lines to get the stamp, have to only spend about 15-20 minutes in the hospital to see the doctor.

MAOI+methylphenidate is just on another level, nothing comes close but are close to impossible to get prescribed and reserved for severe treatment resistant cases.
Apparently my fucked genes are to be blamed.
 
Sorry, didn't wanted to hijack this thread, but I don't have anyone to share it with, most of my relatives don't allow their children (cousins) to hang out with me because apparently being suicidal makes you a Bigrel(bad) kid and because I am just a lowly person who is dumb(don't know why,I was smartest person in school, coaching according to my teachers. estimated non algebraic functions through Taylor series from scratch and made a program to verify it when I was 15).
I can't imagine the sin I must have committed to deserve all this. Lockdown can take a serious toll on someone like me.

I understand @Rehan Kumar . Every single person has their own fields in which they excel, and some where they don't. One just need to find out your strong suits / interest. Unfortunate that some people don't understand depression. 🤦‍♂️

I don't know if my suggestion is of any value.... but you seem to be a person with strong will...
if not tried meditation & yoga.... try it...

Yes..... although, it is a long term therapy and may not give instant relief but if there is no other option..... give it a try....
 
Watched Ramayan at 9 today (tried to) left the room after a few minutes. Watched Mahabharata at 12 today but had difficulty sitting thru the entire episode. I guess Samay then was different & v different now ☹️. U can never turn the clock back.
 
Now in my state from tomorrow onwards shop timings are reduced greatly to 6am to 2pm instead of 9am to 6pm causing more people rushing to the stores. Such a foolish decision. Despite after government announcement, many vegetables, provision shops are shut.

If timings are reduced more people will gather to buy things in short period of time
