Answer 2

If the same medications don't work tell your psychiatrist. Some medications are not always the best for everyone. You may want to ask your doctor about group therapy for people who feel the same way as you do - strength and ideas in numbers! Don't be alone. Go anywhere, if even for a walk, to see people, or to do something you like. A few steps at a time is better than too much, so take it easy until you know what you can tolerate. Best wishes.

Answer 3

I would not want to be taking any meds that made me tired during the day. I am trying a new one , but I am taking it at night along with my klonopin as that makes you tired too. And all the meds. out effect everyone different. And being able to talk about your problems openly will help you too, at least you are getting it off your chest. I do suffer from depression myself.

Answer 4

I would see my doctor explain that you aren't as active as you would like he would be best to advise you on meds as for stopping depression avoid drugs alcohol abuse take extra care of yourself i.e good foods regular exercise keep away from negative influences and look at the root cause of your depression and take therapy/counselling if you are ready to but do discuss this with your doc. hope this helps I suffered for ten years and found meds alone pretty damn useless in fact I don't agree with the long term use of these.Most made me worse after initial usage.

you could need iron pills ..it could be a thyroid problem, it could be from the depression ..go to a doctor and tell him what the problem is .... you will get a lot more help from him
and gettting over the depression will be a lot easier for you once you start getting out and about in the community ..its honestly gonna hurt ya a little the first few times but once you start you will feel sooo much better ..i promise

Answer 6

If your on meds they might not be working for you all that well see a dr tell them how you feel they might change them or your body is used to tha dose and might have to go up a bit to get you motivated I was just on paxil 20 mg and worked my way up to Effexor XR 150 mg ya big jump but there working and get me going everyday.Please see a dr and tell exactly how you feel they might change your meds to your needs hun.

Answer 7

i suffered with bad depression, and all kinds of symptoms appear, and went to see the doctor often, always the same answer, anxiety and depression, and stress.
Untill i realised that pills just help temporily, and the problem is in my own mind.
i slowly weaned myself off the depression moods by becoming positive, and active in things i like doing- less time to ponder and stress. being idle is bad for us.
Have faith, become positive, and shake off the bad energies, stay away from negative people.
Heal yourself with your faith.
