depressed, physically sick, and totally falling apart
I am feeling totally out of coping skills. I have drained my coping skills. was
on empty. prior to my current physical challenges Hep C. HIV, bipolar with depression, etc etc etc. started HepC treatment the 5th. having a lot of physical issues but do not know if it is from the meds or just my normal issues flaring up. having headaches. acute upper respiratory issues, depressed which is an ongoing problem .for me however it has been years since I have been this depressed. have no thoughts of self harm. just not enthusiastic about life. all the meds I am on all have side affects of depression.have spent the last two days crying for no logical reason. have lost 10lbs in 10 days. which is not good. I am glad I was able to get back into daily strength as I don't feel alone. I am a Christian but have been unable to go due to illness. found some online bible study which I am going to do one on dealing with stress . I think I am doing isome positive behaviors to help myself out of this space. thank you for letting me dump. I also need to work on being more respectful to people that responded . i apologize to anyone I afended by not responding to commens. hopefully I will be given a second chance.

Squeaker: I am not sure what treatment you are on, however I was in a terrible state when I did my treatment SOV/Riba. The Riba was the hardest, but Sov has it\'s side effects also. I tried putting all my trust in the Lord also, but I still had a difficult time. I ended up in the ER as my body had a hard time fighting simple colds, etc. Also had strange UTI\'s and other ailments that my Doc finally decided it had to be the treatment I was on. That Doc being my PCP as my Hepatologist kept referring me back to my PCP. It was a long 24 weeks and then waiting for the meds to leave my system afterwards. I also take a lot of other meds similar to yours, so those have effects on me also.
