Hi I am sorry for everyone mental pain on top of the physical. I can very much relate. I do see a psychiatrist and on meds. Also doing biofeedback. I do feel these things have helped to a degree. I overall cope better yet of course when I feel physically so bad and more physical symptoms mentally it is hard.
On my own I have been trying to stay in the day and get through it in the best way I can. I worry and fear a lot of the future and the what if's. Now when the thoughts creep in I try to stop myself and say worry about today and getting through it in the best manner. My pain doctor and I know I have said this before but says on the bad pain days do the best you can and on the good pain days do the best you can.
I agree with others that one goes through stages of feelings through physical conditions. To the OP have you taked to your doctor about trying another med for depression or maybe a combo? I am on cymbalta but with other meds. I am not sure how beneficial I feel Cymbalta has been. Of course everyone is different.
I also developed my condition at 28. I do wish I could do normal things like people my age but what I try to do now is work on ways to find things I can do. Of course it is sad and hard to not be able to do what others can but finding things you can do with your limits may help feel less of a loss. None of this is easy trust me. I am going through a very down time again so these are constant things I need to remind myself. Just hoping better will be ahead and trying to get through the best I can. I wish the same for everyone here too
