I am very sorry you are in such distress. However, if you reject therapy and have little hope for meds, it's not clear what advice to offer? Still, you are welcome to write and receive what support we can give on a forum like this.
Have you tried other ways to deal with emotional distress - exercise, meditation, yoga, group therapy, volunteering? Would you consider these?
