Just don't feel good...

I've been off Seroquel for 2 months now. I've lost some weight so that's good, but I still feel so bad. I had the flu, now a leftover cough for 3 weeks. Now an ear infection and my doctor wants to test me for asthma. I feel anxious, but it levels out a little bit when I take a Xanax.
Besides the physical stuff, I am depressed. I don't want to go anywhere. I force myself to go to work. I force myself to go at least one place on the weekends, but I don't like it. Anti depressants have thrown me into a manic phase in the past. I see my pdoc on Thursday, so I don't know what he will want to do. Last time, we discussed upping my Lamictal, but I don't know if that will help. Any ideas?

I let my problems go for so long with out getting help and I finally went and seen some one and my social anxiaty turned into agoraphobia.... so I hope you can get the proper treatment

Went through something similar. Upping Lamictal and Lithium helped me. I hope you get some relief soon.

Have some compassion for yourself. I'm going through similar stuff myself so know that you're not alone. I have my pdoc appointment in an hour (i'm shaking right now lol) and I have no idea whats gonna happen. anti depressants make me very sick, manic, suicidal, dissociative.

I forced myself to go out yesterday and it got my mind out of the puddle of awful it was in, at least for a little bit. Its goo your trying to get out, keep looking for things you like to do. maybe join a support group IRL so you can use that to get out of the house and socialize with people who understand what youre going through.

Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. I've actually been looking for a support group IRL, but there don't appear to be any around. My pdoc doesn't know of any, neither did the hospital where I went for inpatient. I'm going to keep looking. I think talking with people on here is a help, but IRL always makes it seem, pardon the repeat word, more real.
