Hello all!

I have those meds to take that are listed in my sig line. I am suppose to take Olanzapine twice a day. I have been taking the whole dose once a day. I am suppose to take the Buspirone three time a day. I have only been taking the first dose in the morning. Even though I am supposed to take the Lamitrogine once a day, I had been splitting it up between three times a day. Now I have been taking the full dose in the morning.

I have had this new schedule of meds for several days now. Today I had waves of lethargy. This was manageable. But I have an overall depressed mood for the past couple of days. I have been lazy and avoiding work of any sort, not able to focus for too long, and easily bored. I have stopped showering everyday. I have not been able to structure my day and I find myself up past midnight. I am preoccupied with things that avoids anything productive, like being on the Internet all evening.

Is this depression coincidence? Did my taking of meds have anything to do with it? Maybe this is temporary? Maybe I need a med change if this continues? Is this normal cycling?

The reason I ask is I have not felt this way in awhile, where I feel just simply depressed. This low grade depression is uncommon for me. I had been in hypomania states, sometimes happy, and sometimes irratible.
