| Another Major Depressive Episode |
Anonymous |
04/28/07 |
Hi, Once again, I am experiencing another severe bout of major depression. I have tried so many different medications. They work for awhile and then become ineffective. I am now feeling absolutely hopeless again. I can't think, the simplest things are too much for me. This is what always happens. I can't think to operate anything,think on anything that requires much thought, or read the paper because I can't retain anything. I am completely exhausted. I am in a fog, tired all the time, and still taking my antidepressant. I am frightened once again, I want to lay around and sleep because I am so wiped out from trying to think when I can't. I'm confused and feel like my brain has shutdown. I can't cope with daily life demands. I wander aimlessly around the house and at work, feeling completely dazed. I don't feel at peace when laying down either, because I know I am one sick person. I know if my husband wasn't here, I would have to be institutionized because that is the only way I can stay at home. I am so relieved when the depression has lifted in the past, but why can't the medications stop this. What should I do, I hate to drive under these conditions and that is exactly what I have to do when I need a medication adjustment to make it to the doctor. Do you think there is a reason why the anti-depressants stop working? Is there something else going on? I've also been diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and that isn't helping things either.
Thanks. |
