My OCD is getting horrible. Normal, everyday things to me such as getting dressed, basic hygiene, sitting down, going on a car/bus ride are constant struggles. I want to fall asleep and never wake up again.

I was prescribed sertraline hydrochloride (zoloft) to treat my OCD it's been about 1 week and I feel sick, almost every minute I feel like gulping down my entire bottle which will probably kill me since I'm so young. The only reason I am hesitant to do this is because zoloft overdose sounds really painful.

I can't do it anymore. Any advice? Do any of you have any experience with zoloft overdose.

Please whatever you do, do not take all of the medicine ): That would make me sad and I am sure it would make everyone in your life sad as well because they love you. Please tell your mother or father, or whoever is closest to you that this medication is making you feel ill and you don't want to take it anymore because of that fact immediately please, for me and for your own self. Life is a great thing to experience, and I want you to be able to experience it, just as everyone in your life who loves you does as well.

I recently had a student who goes to my school commit suicide, and the whole school was in mourning and they really missed him, and I personally didn't even get to know him but I was very sad, and imagine if the same happened to you, everyone would be so upset to not have you in their lives anymore, they would miss you so much and they would be heartbroken to not have you around anymore because they love you a lot.

I wrote all of this because even though I do not know you personally, I care about you, from one human to another, your life is valuable and you should not throw it away <3

Although I am a very intelligent child, and I would probably have a good future ahead of me if it weren't for my conditions/disorders, I feel life isn't worth living anymore.

I dread waking up and living everyday life everyday. I can't do some things I love to do. It feels like a waste of life to just live in order to please my immediate relatives and my peers (most of whom I can't stand).

Every single day is a constant struggle and I can't deal with it anymore, even though the medication is supposed to make it better eventually, I feel as though I can't wait that long.

Whether it seems to or not, your family does love you, even if they are the most annoying people on the earth, they love you. Your friends look forward to seeing you everyday I guarantee it, even if you can't tell.

You do have a good future ahead of you, your parents are trying their best to help you along the way to that future. They are helping you get treatment for it, while some kids parents wouldn't even do that, or can't even afford to do that. They are doing all of this because they want you to have a great life, they aren't doing this because they hate you or anything, they love their child and want you to feel better. You just need to explain to them that this medication is not working, and if you could try another one.

I was in this same boat, going to and from one medication to another, and they made me feel all drugged up and depressed all the time. I slept for 20 hours a day because I didn't want to wake up because I was scared of what was to come. I remember those days and they sucked, and I can't even imagine what you are going through now. That was years ago for me, and it was one of the worst things to ever happen in my life because I was so doubtful of the world, and now I am so happy that I am fine. I want you to experience that happiness just as I did a few years back, I want you to enjoy the world alongside everyone. And one of my biggest regrets was missing out on my life at that point in time, it's my biggest regret ever because I never asked anyone for help, and then I finally did and I got the help I needed.

Please tell your parents that you need to see a doctor immediately because you are afraid you might lose that precious future, and don't feel ashamed to say any of this, there is nothing to be ashamed of with asking for your parents to help you, they want to help their child and they would do anything in the world to save you from danger.


They love you, reach out and let them help you. For me and your own self, you will be happy you did, life is magical although it doesn't seem like that right now, I know I felt that too.

They want to help you but currently they don't know what to help you with because you haven't said much, they aren't there to hurt you, tell your parents or someone close to you.

No one is really close to me. It's been a week and little has changed. The depressing thing is, my body is probably too use to Zoloft so it is probably too late to commit suicide successfully unless I take alcohol with my Zoloft.

I just want all the anxiety to stop, I can't stand it.
