      Hi, K, I too have suffered with CFIDS (early 90's), Fibromyalgia, then in 1999 when I started menopause my husband left me for another woman, so I imagine I got a double dose of depression. Here it is 10 years later, I have been on bio HRT which did help the hot flashes that were so bad I thought I would faint. Rest and sleeping have evaded me for years. I'm back at my health & wellness doc for a recap on my HRT because I have gained 20 pounds, am still depressed, fatigued, emotional and can't seem to get my life back. My doc's answer is get off caffeine, diet sodas, and get healthy. And she's supposed to be a women's menopause expert. Right. $1000 later, her answer is my DHEA is low. Just a couple of days ago, like you, I felt like this life was too exhausting and lonely. Let's try and hang in there. I would hate to go out on a negative note. I'd rather finish this play on a high note, wouldn't you? Let's hold out for the good to override the bad. At some point, it has to. I'm thinking I might go try some pregesterone cream, even though there is progestin in my HRT. I suppose we have to keep on trying everything we can until we find what works for us individually. Thank you for sharing your story with all of us. I'll bet you are a very compassionate and loving person and I sincerely hope you feel lots better each day. This is real pain and our bodies are playing tricks with our minds.

      From nanabc March 17

      Glad to see that you are feeling better. I know how you felt about suicidal thoughts plus I was on zoloft too and I know thats what made it start. I am glad I found something also that made the depression and anxiety go away. {{{Hugs}}}

    • Prayer

      From Teency February 27

      hang in there please. I know that depression can be hard to deal with. But please reach out to someone in a church, or maybe someone at work can help. You need to be here for your child. Please let us know how you are doing.
