Thanks for the replies everyone

I actually already taken Prozac 10mg everyday. It helps a lot with my anxiety and extreme irritation that I get. I currently don't have a pdoc because we just moved a few months ago and nobody in my area is taking patients without insurance (which is another question all in itself... My boyfriend and I have decided that when I do get insurance, it would only be for emergencies and yearly check up and pay the rest out of pocket.. So I'm wondering if that still counts as no insurance when I talk to mental health people? Oh well.. We'll figure that one out soon enough, I suppose.) In the mean time, my old doctor gave me enough refills to last me a while, though I"m going to have to call and ask him for a few more since getting a pdoc is so hard out here...

The last time I had my blood checked was in the spring, and they told me I was anemic. That's the second time I've had my blood taken and been told I'm anemic. I assume I'm probably still anemic because in addition to being a girl, we don't eat a lot of red meat or other iron rich foods (I hate spinach and only mildly tolerate broccoli). I think the iron pills are helping, though. Friday I was actually feeling a lot better until the PMS set in, lol!

I do try to get exercise a couple times a week. I try to go to ballet every week. Last week I went twice instead of just once; hopefully next week I'll be able to go three times. I also try to go to some water exercise classes and a bike ride if it's nice out. I'm trying to stay active. Slip, you're right though, on days when I just force myself to do something I don't feel like doing (even going to ballet can sometimes be a struggle) I always feel so much better afterward. That was kind of my line of thinking with getting two jobs... force myself to get out of bed (money and keeping up the resume are two good reasons). I also usually bribe myself with similar things "Okay, get to work and then you can come home and take a nap."

Thanks for all the support; it really helped. Especially just to hear that I'm not the only one fighting against these issues. Also, thanks for reminding me to not be so hard on myself --I REALLY struggle with that. I guess I was just worried about getting depressed and needed some fresh ideas to help me keep it at bay and to be reminded I'm not alone in this. I'll definitely try some of those things; maybe try to take a walk in the evening with my boyfriend. I really like the idea of doing nice things for people; I'm starting to work on a whole bunch of Christmas presents that I'm crocheting/sewing, so that should fit in nicely

Thanks again!
(One for each of you!)
I love you guys!
