mmm... i don't know what advice to give you.
i guess you should be fortunate with what you have, there are so many people out there that are worse off, i mean.. my friend at the gym is a marathon runner and she is in her late thirties and has recently been diagnosed with that disease where you can no longer feel your legs, and eventually she'll end up in a wheel chair. that probably doesn't mean much to you.. but work with what you have and appreciate yourself. we're all different for a reason! i bet you have awesome qualities that these other people don't have. play around and see what you come up with.. i hope i helped?
You need to find a way to believe in yourself and stop feeling sorry for yourself. The world is full of people that are smarter, better looking and more succesful than I am but that hasnt stopped me from creating my own place in this world and I am a very heavy cycling bipolar.
Just look at your username!

Believe in yourself. that's the most important thing u need to do. I know u can do it. I wish u the best of luck.
I don't know if I can offer you any advice, because I think that therapists can be the most effective way to manage mental health issues. But can I ask why you don't believe in them? If you would add that information, we might be able to understand your situation and answer your question better.
Judging by your screen name, I would assume you've been here before. I'm here to tell you, YOU WILL SURVIVE!
If you had diabetes, would you take insulin?
If you had step throat, would you take antibiotics?
If you had epilepsy, would you take anti-consultants?
Hopefully you answered YES to these questions! Most specifically the one about epilepsy! If you answered yes to that one, try and keep an open mind to what I am about to say...
Millions of people have epilepsy. There are different degrees of this disorder. For some it can go undiagnosed, while others are aware of their condition but have yet to find an effective means to control the symptoms.
Having epilepsy can be debilitating for many people. There are also many who have found the right treatment to manage the symptoms. And still others who seem to "out grow" it.
Epilepsy affects each person in a unique way, so there are often several attempts at treatment before a successful one are found. It may take some trial and error but, more often then not, it can be controlled.
I have epilepsy! I hate doctors and I really hate taking any type of medication! For the most part, it didn't really affect me so I ignored it. The only effect it had on me was making me tired. If I had a seizure, it was usually in my sleep and I only knew I had one because I was achy the next day. As time went by, the "achy" days were becoming more and more frequent; I still refused to take medication. I just didn't believe in it! Before I knew it, the symptoms of my epilepsy became so severe, I lost my job (I missed a lot of days because I was too achy to work), my wife and I were constantly at odds and I was nothing close to the father I wanted to be. I couldn't understand what was happening to my life. I could see it slipping away but could do nothing to stop it.
After a lot of pushing on my family's part, I finally agreed to go to the doctor. After the first 2 different medications I tried, not only was I not any better, I was 20 lbs heavier (thanks to the side effects). Getting me to try a third medication was like pulling teeth. But, for the sake of my kids I tried it. I didn't really notice any difference until I realized one day I was playing with my kids, I was not "achy" and I realized I hadn't been in a few weeks.
It still took some tweaking to get the meds just right but I gotta tell you, I am the man I once was and my life is better than ever!
Does this story make sense to you?
Doesn't it seem obvious? I should have started getting help much sooner?
Now go back through the story and everywhere you see the word epilepsy, replace it with depression.
Everywhere you see mention of "achy" or reference to symptoms that was the effect my depression was having on me.
THAT IS MY STORY!! HOPE IT HELPS!
