I have been very depressed for many months now. Recently I am having a surge of energy. There has been no changes to my meds or life situation other than being thankful for what I have as a life, albeit a very limited one. (I keep telling myself life could be much much worse). I actually have been getting things done, even (gasp) cleaning parts of my house. I do not know where this is coming from.

I was going to start a new med but I am not so sure if I should continue to stay on my current meds. Can meds take months before their full effect can be felt? Or is this just a cosmic joke on me where depression will return with a vengeance? Or is my mood finally swinging back up? Right now I am having problems sitting still. I want to get out of here and do something. I am more focussed. I am beginning to deal with problems with others more productively. My daughter even notices the change.

Too good to be true? This has been going on only for a few days. It is just that I usually do not have a turn around like this.

PS: I have taken showers two days in a row now.

PPS: the first change a couple months ago has been my ability to start remembering details of my past that for quite a long time now I have not been able to recall. It's as though large timespans of my past has been missing from memory.
