I have chronic back pain and my GP doesn't know why, although I have been diagnosed with MS. I take morphine for the pain but the morphine is making me itchy, sick and tired, don't know if that's side effects or not, been on it two years, take 100mg+ per day. I also have started to feel severely depressed, is this the morphine, the back pain or me? Depressed to the point where I can't get out of bed and face the day, I have spent the last few weeks mainly sleeping and exhausted but also feeling very tired and ill, how can I start motivating myself to get up and face the day and is it the morphine that is causing this terrible crushing depression? I have never felt this bad inside before and fear that I can't hold it together much longer.
