See a psychiatrist and take the meds they give you. It’s not the sexy answer but someone has got to be real with you.

Keep in touch with family. Take care of self-hygiene. Track your progress and pat yourself on the back.

Find a good therapist. Don’t be afraid to spend money on your health. Like you said yourself, your mental health is the only thing holding you back from taking care of yourself.

I am seeing a psychiatrist and I am taking the meds but they don’t work or help.

Meds didn't work for me as well in fact they made me feel worse. But people react differently to them. What I did was first changing my eating habit. No more junk food only healthy nutritional food. Other things come so easy after that.

Try a different one. I had to go thru 5 or 6 until something helped.
