Depresión. Y fatiga

Salud mental

Hi guys

I am currently going through a real bad time.  I have trouble getting out of bed. Feel like my mind wants to but my body feels tired. In the evening I can exited about what I may be able to do tomorrow but not sure I’ll be able to.  

So in the morning I wake tired

And then I get angry as I close my eyes and want to do all these things. And seem like I can’t do em? My legs feel heavy. I do still manage to get about but I have to beat myself up

I do wake with anxiety at first then start thinking about how tired I am today

I hit my head with my fist as I get so frustrated. And all simple issues I find hard to deal with.  I’m not sure what I’m going through? But it’s not good

I need help. Gp is unsure?

Hi. You're not alone I'm going through similar at the moment. Just want to stay in bed but can't sleep. Doctor has given me sleep tablets but they don't really work 😓 I've been on citalapram for 3 weeks now and it's starting to kick in and make me feel a bit better..maybe go back to your gp?

i started Lexapro 5mg for this reason I wait 3 weeks to see if I improve , have a lot of depression and anxiety esp in morning , gets worse in winter months . see how it goes in a few weeks, .I don't want to put on weight on it as I read on here that it causes weight gain ,

Casi no me levanto de la cama y no puedo dormir por la noche, así que termino durmiendo durante el día. Es como si estuviera pegado a mi teléfono. Estoy enganchado a navegar por internet. Bueno, ambas cosas están relacionadas. ¿Fatiga crónica? Como apenas empezaste, quizás sea la depresión la que causa la fatiga. Cuídate❤️

Hola Olpallix, mi nombre es Diane y lamento mucho que estés pasando por un momento tan difícil. Sé por experiencia cuánta ansiedad y depresión pueden agotarte y cómo afectan todas las áreas de tu vida. Como tu médico de cabecera no sabe qué hacer, te recomendaría que lo/la pidiera derivarte a un consejero. Es posible que necesites un antidepresivo, yo he tenido muy buenos resultados con ellos. ¿Nos podrías decir cómo estás, ya que han pasado varias horas desde que escribiste?? Diane

I also feel like this for years , don't know why? I'm 49 now , and in perimenopause , also had a lot of stress all my life , can never relax fully, so I'm feel tired all time . taking it a bit easier now , and do things in my own time as much as I can. getting addicted to staying in bed too long on laptop in morning unless I have to get up.

Yeah sleeping pill don’t always work.  Took one last nice. Don’t always do as it’s adictive. It did help but you wake up worse and even more unmtivayed

I’m glad citalopram is helping you. .  Keep going

Yes it might put on weight.  Let’s hope not in your case.  Well done for going the drug route.  Hope it sorts u out.  I’m worried about them too

Hi Diane.  Still feel awe full.  Thanks for support.  I need to take ad.  But worries I’ll get worse.

Thanks for your support. I’ll keep u posted

Thanks Sharon.  Sorry you sufferer so long. Long do you force yourself? I do.  And then can’t stop?

But do you guy feel like it’s no energy in the morning. Or can’t be bothered depression type stuff.  Cause I get up and try. But feel drained? I’ll feel better in the evening luckily at least.

He he estado tomando Lexapro por mucho mucho tiempo y no he ganado peso. Todos somos diferentes, pero yo estaba más interesada en deshacerme de mis síntomas que en ganar peso. Si lo hubiera hecho y mi depresión hubiera mejorado, sabía que podía volver a empezar a hacer ejercicio y caminar🚶. Diane

Yesterday I really wanted to be at work and get on with things.  Was exited about it but was so tired I started tending up. And then could sit down again. So I don’t get it I didn’t feel depressed wanted to be there but felt aweful?  Only in evening after dinner I managed to relax.  

This morning I’m so tired my legs hurt.  Didn’t sleep well at all too so doesn’t really help either

Did your symptoms get better.  Did you feel like your body felt heavy?  

When I sit down for an hour I get up and sometimes feel much  heavier after and feel like I can’t get up.  And then my whole body aches?

How much lexapro u on?

Cheers

Sí, mis síntomas mejoraron, pero recuerda que cada persona es diferente. Antes de tomar lexapro, estaba tomando otro antidepresivo, por lo que aún lo tenía en mi sistema y el primero funcionó muy bien durante años antes de dejar de ser efectivo. No te rindas, trabaja con tu médico. ¿Has visto a un psiquiatra? Podrías intentarlo ya que estás pasando por un momento tan difícil. Por favor, haznos saber cómo te va. Diane
