Debbie,
Your story sounds hauntingly familiar. Are you saying that the depression lowers your productivity, which in turn creates anxiety and feelings of guilt over wanting to do your best and not wanting to let others down? It's like a snowball effect that can make anybody end up feeling overwhelmed! Hang in there! This happens to me, and when I come out of the depression it's difficult because I then have to "pick up all of the pieces". At the end of last school year, my Pdoc prescribed Provigil to help with my fatigue. This really helped me with my motivational problems and I was then better able to cope.

I totally understand about staying up at night!! I sometimes wonder if I would be better at a night job You are definitely not alone.
