Between work and school I feel like I've been stretched thin to the point where I cannot concentrate on anything. I feel like I've retracted mentally and I cannot function. I can only spend my time idly doing things that I barely even feel like I enjoy anymore. I do not know what to do with my life. What am I supposed to do?

I feel like I am panicking right now and I do not know what to do or where to get help. Why am I freaking out? I've been taking my medication...

Ugh.

I would call my doctor as soon as possible. You may need an adjustment to you medication. Sorry you are so stressed out but I understand how you feel. Take care.

You might want to run by your regular doc too. A blood test can rule out all kinds of things from hormones, to infections. I hope you feel better soon.

I spoke with my doctor about my mental health last month, who suggested I either increase my dosage of cipralex to 30 mg (I'm at 20mg) or use bupropion as a supplement. I haven't increased my dosage because I had a bit of an up since seeing him (until recently). I think maybe I should go to 30.

I just came back from an exam and I think I may have scraped a pass in that course. I'm not sure what I will be doing with my life because between my depression, anxiety, and inability to deal with stress it seems like I will have very little success in things that will be required of me. =(

Thank you for your suggestions.
