Have you been to your regular doc for blood tests? You could be anemic or something. Just a thought.

I didn't even think of that...I used to have chronic anemia, but it's been under control for a couple of years now. Maybe I should go see my GP....again. Thanks Alice.

*hugs* I'd go for blood tests too just to make sure there's nothing underlying. Hope you feel better soon xox

I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. I agree about going to see your GP just to be on the safe side.

When I started exercising again, I started off very slow. I would do about 5 or 10 minutes on my eliptical, not to overdue it. Then I built it up from there.

You are going through a lot right now. Perhaps your anxiety over it all is playing a part. When I get anxious I get so tired, I have no strength or motivation to do anything. Just a thought.

I hope you feel better soon. Take care. Hugs.

Definitely go see your doctor. I hope you can get in to see him/her soon. ((((HUGS))))

Hanna, when I am in "major depression" I feel the same way. My joints ache, I am extremely weak, I am sleepy, lethargic etc. It doesnt hurt to get the blood tests to be sure. Vitamin B-12 and B complex might help you regain some of that energy. It is almost impossible for me to exercise when I feel like that because just walking across a room takes everything I have.

Sweetie, please find a new pdoc and get in to see him about your meds. I truly do not think they are doing for you what you need them to do and you cannot go on like this much longer.

I am so sorry that you are struggling so much. Hugs

Is it b/c of depression? I know I've felt lethargic from being depressed, but I don't think I've ever felt this weak. Any physical activity is just too much.

I'm eating some oatmeal now just so that I know I've eaten something good for me today. I really think I need more protein in my diet....but I'll definitely err on the side of caution and have my blood levels checked...and I'm working SOOOOOO hard on getting a pdoc.

I spent all day yesterday trying to find one and I got nowhere.

ok, you need some carb (not too much) to build muscle...also magnesium zinc supplements assist with this too.

You can so do it, hannah & you'll feel terrific x

C'mon, maybe you catch the flu.

Must be BP the cause of all our problems?

Hanna my dear--As you probably know, our mental health so much affects our physical health and as you are going through a difficult time right now you are just being drained on both ends. I hope and pray that God gives you the strength to go on and do what you need to do for you and your family. Much love.

Maybe you are coming down with something....but it's best to check with your doctor if you have been eating right and taking vitamins....

I agree with everyone that you should probably see about some blood tests just to be safe. I suppose you could also have the flu. But I also really agree with Shelly and Zany--you have been through a lot lately and your mental state can severely affect how you feel physically. I know that for a fact--at least with me. Hope things get better soon. Hugs.

I feel like a worthless piece of dog poop. Does that answer your question? =p

could be a reaction/ side affect
to medication

did you ever get your insurance straightened out so you can get on your meds? i really hope this gets better. i get that way when i'm depressed. i get so lethargic feeling to the point where i can't even lift my arms to make breakfast. definately talk to your doc. i really hope things get better. hugs.
