Depression and Anxiety and Autism

[Rhidia]

I have been dealing with these issues for the 30-odd years. I have been on antidepressants since I was, if I recall, my early 20's. I have been diagnosed with severe Depression and Anxiety and have horrible difficulty dealing with it, despite medication, as a result of being on the Autistic Spectrum, Level 1. I am getting help, but, especially after a mix-up with my medication which put me in a psychiatric hospital for almost last year? I am reaching a horrible situation where, every so often, I hit a "down" and ending up wanting to die. Sometimes I feel better after a while, sometimes I don't. Any and all helpful suggestions, please?

I'm sorry you feel bad and been hospitalised. Are you out now and living independently, and do you have support? My suggestion is to get active, to walk or swim or jog every day.
