TV HIGHLIGHTS

ROBERT VIGLASKY/HBO
Catherine the Great (HBO at 10) The historical drama stars Helen Mirren
as the titular Russian empress, who ruled for much of the 18th century,
focusing on the later years of her reign.

Adapted from a

recent online

discussion.

Dear Carolyn: I

suffer from

depression that

has been fairly

well controlled

until recently.

The past couple of weeks, I’m

having a terrible episode, to

where I’m really not sure I want

to go on living. I know I need to

see a therapist, but I’ve gone

down the list of therapists in my

insurance provider’s directory

and I can’t get anyone to return

my calls. I’ve called and left

messages for over a dozen so far

and I can’t get an appointment.

I no longer live in the state

where my original doctor was

years ago, so I can’t see her

anymore. I can’t afford to pay

out of pocket. I don’t have any

friends or family who can or are

willing to help me make calls

and find someone.

It was so hard to get

motivated to do this to begin

with, and I’m at the verge of just

giving up entirely. Is there

anything else I can do?

— At the Verge

At the Verge: I’m so sorry you’re

in the midst of a bad episode.


You can send a quick text to

741741 — the Crisis Text Line —

to be connected to a volunteer

staffer. There’s a more detailed

explanation here:

crisistextline.org/texting-in.


If you have suicidal

thoughts, then please call the

National Suicide Prevention

Lifeline, 800-273-8255. Keep the

number handy.

More information:

suicidepreventionlifeline.org.


Don’t wait for a therapist;

call your primary care doctor.

Right away. Request a sick

appointment — i.e., immediate

— get an evaluation, learn what

treatment options you have

while you look for a therapist.


Your regular doctor may

also be able to get past barriers

to your seeing a therapist. I’ve

experienced it myself: I call

specialists, and they’re

scheduling six months out; my

doctor’s office calls for me, and

I’m in next week. It’s not true

every time, but enough to make

it worth trying.


If you haven’t called your

out-of-state “original doctor,”

then do so. Some practitioners

will do video consultations with

prior patients.


If this is all too daunting —

health care is a lot to manage

even for people who aren’t

depressed — pick one contact

and try it now: your primary

care physician if you have one,

the crisis text line if you don’t.

Finally, so important, don’t

let yourself forget that

depression responds to

treatment and you have

managed yours successfully in

the past. Do not treat as

permanent a crisis that is

temporary: It is a symptom of

depression to believe it won’t go

away.

Take care, and trust yourself

to get through this.

Re: Depression: I feel for the

person struggling to find help

because I’ve been there.

Depression has a way of making

even the most basic tasks

insurmountable. Frustrating

tasks like finding a therapist are

even worse.

I don’t have any silver bullet,

or even any actionable advice. I

just want them to know they are

not alone. That there are people

who understand what you are

going through. And I hope they

can see that every time they

make a call is a triumph over

the illness. Some days, that’s all

you can handle, or you might

not be able to handle even that

much, and that’s okay, too. Some

days you have more spoons than

others.
