Boring Post, But I Need to Know....

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that it's common to have blurred vision during depression. Or maybe I just dreamt it.
Has anyone had this happen during depression? I can hardly see anything today and my depression came on this morning like a ton of bricks, all in about 10 minutes.

I sometimes have blurred vision but then I wear permenant contact lenses so I guess that could be it.

I get blurred vision but I also have rosacea so not sure if it is connected or not.

I'm pretty sure that since I started taking Effexor my vision has started getting blurry. Then again when I'm depressed, I don't see anything so well; my eyes seem to be half open.

My vision's been getting worse since I've been on Abilify. But depression's worsened too, so i can't tell what's causing what.

It's the side effect of a few medications.
Doesn't help being on DS fo 90 hrs a day either.

i couldn't read during my deepest depression.

my vision wasn't exactly blurred.

but it seemed the words were scrambled on the page and it all came out to nonsense.

My eyes sometimes cross too and I get headaches where its hard to hold focus.

In the horsey world we eventers do not cry, we just swear. And laugh at the show jumpers, because they cry at everything.

Dobies don't cry, they get even.

When I get really depressed sometimes I get so tired that I feel like I have weights on my eyelids and it's hard to even keep them open. Yes, my vision did get a little blurry.

I never really thought about it before. But when I'm depressed it is just like being in a fog for me with a huge weight on my body.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
