Sorry to hear you are having a hard time at work. Sometimes the rough times are out in the open and sometimes they are behind people's backs. Talk to your doc and tell them about the symptoms and what other combinations might be helpful.
There are not any easy fixes, but sometimes there are lifestyle changes that can be made that do make a difference. If any of these I tried appeal to you, they are simple solid ways to help right the boat. Hope you feel better soon.
Here are lifestyle changes that may not solve your problems but may help to keep them from getting blown into bigger ones than they need to.
Food can be a source of health or it can be fuel on the fire of depression. A high protein diet, either or both vegetable (tofu, soy products) and animal (yogurt, milk, eggs (the whites are all protein, the yokes are all fat, chicken range fed preferred, wild caught fish) Cut down or cut out carbos and feel the difference. Fruit can be subbed for desserts. Nuts can be a sub for snacks.
Yoga (youtube.com) exercise or walking, meditation (follow the breath 5-15 minutes on awakening and before sleeping)
Listen to soothing music and you may find yourself relaxing. I like new age or soft jazz instrumental help me relax enough to go to sleep - a very important part of staying in balance. (I notice you have the Titanic smiley - keep bailing the ship will not go down-lol)
Thanks for this!
