Just want to sleep my life away

[Bottomplasters]

Really struggling and not sure why. Struggling with motivation to do the simplest tasks and stuff I used to enjoy. On my days off, I just want to sleep and sleep.

I can’t stop over eating and struggling g massively that my 13 year old son is now much more independent and doesn’t need me as much. Being a mum is a role I love. Fertility issues so no more children.

Life just seems such a hard plod.

I am on a high dose antidepressant, anyone felt like this and got another antidepressant that worked? I am on cotalopram 40mg?

Could you be anaemic?

I’m not sure, maybe I should get tested

Get your thyroid tested op.

Have people felt like this and it was thyroid and felt better?

Yes, me - fertility issues, waking up sleepy despite going to bed at 9pm, weight gain, depression...

I’m now on Thyroxine and 90% better.

Oh wow! I’m going to make an appointment.

Feel like I’m going through treacle and things will never get better
