My first day on Daily Strength

It's been 4 years of living with full-blown Meniere's.  Thank goodness the Meniett machine has really helped with the vertigo.  But every spring I go through the same thing.  My symptoms start getting worse as the pollen comes out.  And every spring I get depressed.  Just when it becomes so beautiful outside, all the arts & crafts festivals are happening, I want to be hiking, running, camping, swimming, having cookouts, so many of the reasons I moved to the desert in the first place, and I have to stay indoors.  I'm already on an anti-depressant, and I suppose it is helping because instead of giving up I am fighting the depression every day.  It's hard to tease apart how much of my need to sleep is the effects of the meniere's, and what is from depression.  If I did what I want to do, I would spend all day on the sofa, sleeping, reading, eating and watching TV.  But when I give into this urge for even half a day, I feel horrible.  So I force myself to do things around the house.  There are projects I want to do inside, and I do have my pottery.  The pottery is physically demanding and can affect my ear, which makes me hesitant to do it.  But I do feel better when get something accomplished.  When I go back and read this, I realize how depressed I really am.  I think it's time to take the bull by the horns.  I'll schedule with my PCP to discuss medications.  And I've got to build exercise into my days, even though I hate that it has to be indoors.
