I'm so lost. I think my mind and my body are fighting with each other so to speak. I take anti depressants so my mind is wanting me to be in a better mood but my body is so tired and all I would want to do is to lay in bed all day. I almost wish that I could feel depressed because then I would at least feel something. Right now I it's really hard to describe how I feel. That's what's so frustrating! I'm not happy but I'm not depressed either. Anyone ever felt this way?

That's exactly how I felt on Zoloft, apathy and tired. It never changed for me, that along with dry mouth, constipation and sexual dysfunction. I refer to it as a zombie pill. I stopped taking it. I'm on Wellbutrin now and love it, but it's not for every one. We are all different. SSRI's don't work as well on me. Hope it gets better for you!

not a fan of SSRIs either. They got me to the lowest point I've been. On SNRIs now. I think they work for me better but my jury's still out. I'm still not happy I just feel void. With the SSRIs I couldn't sleep and was ****ed beyond belief. Now I'm just detached and a cardboard cutout of myself. I feel like I lost my mojo to quote Austin Powers.

Deep apathy and lack of motivation, rather than outright sadness, are primary ways I experience depression. How much of that is the underlying illness vs. the meds I don't know.
