I've been feeling really well for 6 months now and this last 10 days I've started to feel like I'm in the fog again. Everything is a struggle, I have no enthusisam and I just want to sleep. I don't want to tell dh as he will frog march me to the docs who will just increase my medication. Any advice please on how to lift this. I haven't quite reached the crying non stop phase yet but I know once I start I want be able to hide it any longer.

Have you tried any sort of alternative therapy? I feel a bit like you today, but mine is due to my fibromyalgia, i have pain of some sort or another 24/7, and DH was on the phone last night ranting and raving at me about how he couldn't just give up his job - when all I had said was that I had a migraine.
I have tried those Bach remedies in the past and found they helped, and my friend who suffers badly with depression swears by those Kalms you get in teh chemist, and she takes them with her ADs.

Thanks I do take the rescue remedy but I'm finding I need to have the whole bottle at the moment!

Hmm, not sure what to suggest. Sometimes whne I feel like this, and the pain isn't too bad, I go on a cleaning purge through the house, throwing things out certainly helps my mood. A bit drastic though.

Would it be so bad if your GP did up your meds, even for a short while?

I suppose not just want to sort myself out. At work at the moment so cleaning not an option think work is a bit of the problem!

I'm feeling exactly the same at the moment. I came off AD'S 3 months ago but I am honestly considering going back on them again. I hate feeling this was and wonder if they'll ever be a day when I don't feel crappy!
