The past week or so my depression has been worse. There are times when I feel like my meds and therapy are working and I can get out of the house and be productive (I also have agoraphobia), and then I crash back down again. I've just been sleeping for days straight. Any small activity requires me to rest afterwards. I take a shower, need to lie down, eat breakfast, need to lie down, walk the dogs, need to lie down. I'm just so exhausted of everything. I would like this particularly bad spell to pass already so I can at least stay awake a full day.
Just had to get how I'm feeling out there. Thanks for listening. Seesaw |

I'm sorry you are struggling. It really sucks. Maybe allowing yourself to rest when you need to is a good idea. There is no sense in asking more of yourself than you can give.
 Let me know if you ever want to talk. |

There is hope. I was in the same shape and then with my last med change and lowering my stress load I have come out the other side feeling really good. Hang in there it can get better. You may need your meds tweeked.

Thanks all. Gayleggg, I'm going to see if I can get help with a med adjustment today. Hopefully that will help me feel better.

Update, I don't know if it's because I had an early morning appointment with the pdoc or not, but I dragged my self our of bed at 730am and got to the mental health clinic by 9am, the time of our appointment.
Pdoc adjusted almost all of my meds and I am very hopefully this is going to all me to start helping myself more too. So I can get out of my own way and do all the things I need to do to fight the depression from my side Get outside more, get more exercise, try to find more joy in my life. We've been trying this particular route of meds for many months now and it's just not working. So I hope over the few days I start to notice some shifts in my mood and energy level. At least I hoping for it. Thanks everyone for sticking this out with me!!! |
