Thanks for the input everyone, I really appreciate it!
I went through a heck of a time (over a year) with my Pdoc trying different meds, none of which worked. Some made me feel sui, some put me to sleep, others shut down my body in other ways. We finally found one that didn't make me sick/tired/sui, but to be honest, I never noticed feeling better, I just noticed the absence of all those other feelings, and I felt like I could handle the depression as opposed to prior to the med parade, where the depression was consuming, and ruining my world.
Now, I just feel flat. I'm depressed constantly, but I'm still functioning. So I'm wondering if it's even worth it to be on the meds anymore, since I don't actually feel any less depressed.
@LucyG - thank you for the links! I'm a fan of holistic support, as long as I can afford it. I actually am on a Vitamin D supplement that is absorbed nearly 100%, and am searching for a vegan fish oil or some sort of Omega 3's as was recommended to me by my dietitian. I hope that works. I'll ask about amino acids, too. I have a very odd diet due to severe food allergies that limit my intake. Unfortunately, some of the meds/supplements are also on the allergy list.
I am just tired of feeling like crap 24/7. When I'm at work, I'm busy and distracted and therefore feel fine, but as soon as I leave, I fall apart.
