So low

Hi all,
I just wanted to reach out and try and get some advice.
I'm currently a stay at home mum and my baby is 18 months old, I have lost all sense of who I am.
I feel so depressed I just want to sleep the day away which isn't an option.
I have been on medication for a while but it doesn't make me feel any different.
I can't bring myself to go to groups or generally leave the house! I feel like I'm completely alone in my misery and I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel! I just have no energy for anything at all! I am so very low at the moment.
Sorry in advance for the outbursts all.

God I felt the same when my DS was that age - its hard! I was on anti depressants and they did help a bit so may be worth checking with gp that you're on the best one for you. Perhaps you just need to try another type? You sound like you are still very low Sad Have you also had all the blood tests you can that check tiredness ie check for low iron, thyroid etc etc?? I found I was low iron and my god, the difference after a couple of weeks supplements was bonkers! So, my advice would be, go back to gp and talk it through. Good luck x

Go back to GP. You might find a different AD helps or there might be something else going on. You needn't just suffer.
