I feel like I'm just stuck in depression lately and it sucks. Getting out of bed is hard to do and normal daily functioning isn't happening. It seems like a hole I'll never get myself out of. Blah

It's times like these I wish for a high to come...

I know how much it sucks. I'm barely out of my own depression... Was just depressed for 2 or 3 weeks & now I'm in a dysphoric mania. Hope you get out of it soon & feel better!! Sometimes if you push yourself into doing things you do when you're "up", you can actually convince your body & your neurotransmitters into functioning a little less depressively. You might feel better! : )
Thanks for this!

I hate that feeling so much. I would have to second the recommendation to doing this and seeing your pdoc asap if you can't.

I've been stuck for most of the summer. Cannot seem to make myself do much of anything. I am sorry that you are in this place. Can seem like there is no end to it. Hope you get some relief soon.

I was doing fine then a few weeks ago felt like this depression sort of wrapped around me like a python. Or maybe an oil spill.

I don't know why. No "thing" happened. I woke up very early one morning and felt like it was the beginning of the end of the world.

My pdoc saw me the next day. Great, right? He added Abilify that day to Cymbalta and topiramate. Terrific, huh?

Three days later I had not slept at all. I wasnt anxious, just at attention. I called pdoc. He said I'd have to wait two weeks before i can try something "like" Abilify. It's a week into those two, I am more depressed than ever, sleep still mostly evades me, i'm angry, I don't want ever to get up again!

Yeah, SingDanceRunLife, I know how you feel, feel the same way pretty much myself....& don't have the very shadow of a notion what to do about it.

It just sucks.

At least I worked today and have 2 other days of work this week...work helps since it gets me up and out of the house, doing something productive.
