Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I do understand that everyone experiences depression differently and each experience is unique. I started suffering with severe anxiety followed by severe depression and i was also diagnosed with a prolactinoma so i think the hormone imbalance does have something to do with it.
Well i was put on prozac which is working really good for me except for that fact that i kinda crash when i get my dose increased but then i come out of it and im ok. My prolactinoma medicine is straight up dopamine and i makes me depressed and there isnt really anything i can do because there are only two meds for that condition.
When i get depressed the first thing i feel is a very heavy opressive feeling, then i lose my feelings of love towards my spouse, and i feel like i need to be alone. Can depression take away feelings of love because this is what really disturbs me. We have been together for 13 years and i am 29 now. Im also wondering why depression and anxiety make you question everything about everything? The only thing im a thankful for is that i only have to take my prolactinoma med once a week and by the time i have to take another one i feel pretty good, almost normal. So i guess has anyone else had these feelings with depression?

I kinda took out my depression on the one I was with, getting pissed off if he couldnt or didnt help, even though he didnt know what to do. I started resenting that there was no help from him and I think I did lose my feelings of love for him because of this.
Not nice at all and I would try to get those feelings back knowing that I was doing wrong, but once they were gone all that was in their place was anger and dislike.
