No energy with anxiety and ocd on top of it. Trying to work out the medication with my doctor. I feel like I can barely get Anything done lately.. Lack of interest. Not sure how to fix this- also when you factor in the anxiety- hard to tell what's causing what..

I can't tell you how many times I've felt the same way. Usually I know a bout of depression is coming up when I start losing interest in everything and can't stick to one diversion for longer than a day. I also have anxiety and yeah, it's hard to tell if the anxiety causes depression or the depression causes anxiety!

Hang in there! Maybe try relaxing and doing things you don't usually do. Read a book or start a small garden or something. I hope you feel better soon.

I know how bad that feels. Do you have people in your life that you spend time with? I think too much time alone can make these problems worse. Today, I spent hours working up the ambition to just do the dishes, which is a task I don't particularly mind at all. But what a time I had getting started. My house is a mess, and I get paralyzed trying to decide where to start. I know how it is.

Anxuety and depression are a viscious circle. They feed into each other.

Maybe if you took something specifically for anxiety. Are you getting enough sleep at night?
