Depression Support Group
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.
It seems like every morning I feel just horrible. I don't know if it's the lexapro at its weakest or what. But I'm here at work feeling like I'm fighting back a total meltdown.
Ugh, I need to be able to concentrate on my work, but I'm in such a struggle.

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...
I wish I could help but I'm stuck in it too, so I'm not sure what I can say. I'm trying to meditate, or listen to a relaxation tape when I get up. It's helped a little.
I hope you feel better soon. *hugs*
Speak to your doctor about changing medication that suits u better. I have been on about 10 different medication until I found one that works.. I am on Prozac.
It is a anti-depressant whcih u take in the morning and it does not give you that tired feeling but keeps you awake... Found it really good. The generic brand is Lovan.
It is not good to feel like this so talk to your doctor to change the medication....
My stress morning also includes an occasional 3:30 am wide away stress about money (job hunting) and that is awful.
DO NOT TAKE SLEEPING PILLS by the way, I did " once " and it was weird. I lose a job last year, stressed so bad I could NOT even sleep so I took one (1) Sominex. You don't even sleep. It just send you to zombie land and the wake-up is dreadful.
