For a person (my daughter) who has tried everything under sun (except ECT and psilocybin)for depression and OCD and nothing ever seemed to help, what is the latest on treatment horizon?
Personally, cold exposure + lots of coffee + engaging work w/ others has been more effective than anything I've found in the healthcare system. Commit to daily work/social obligations, then drink enough coffee until you can will yourself to go everyday. Once it starts to become a habit is when my depression (slowly) will start to lift. If I stop for too long I fall back into the hole.
Self-diagnosis is generally frowned upon but I think everyone owes it to themselves to at least try to find explanations that they can discuss with professionals.
i am thinking we will self pay an MRI.
