Yes depression makes me feel bad physically and makes other problems worse for me.
I get body pains and my joints hurt. Also my posture has become really bad over the past several years - I don't stand straight and walk slowly.
I blame all this on the depression which has been bad for the past several years despite med changes.
All this makes getting exercise very hard because I'm not motivated and in pain overall. It's even uncomfortable taking a shower.
Depression is really awful and I hope you find your way through it soon.
