I don't know how to put this but I feel like a failure
at everything I try to do. I'm very critical of myself
and have very high expectations for myself; and inevitably
it opens me up for depression and anxiety, etc. I'm not
taking meds for depression, do take some xanax inconsistently.
I was a database administrator and now am a data security
mgr. as my job responsibilities changed; not to my liking. I have
been hard on myself about that but I had no control over it.
That's the way most of the stuff is that I beat myself up
over; I have no control over it. I never learn the lesson.
I see a psychologist now but I think we are getting nowhere.
Is there some med out there that may help self hating types
like me? I've tried some of the a/d's but I quit them
due to the side effects that made me feel worse about
myself. I feel like I'm in a vicious circle w/ no way out.
Growing weary with life. HELP
