Struggling and so alone

Hi. I'm going through a down time at the moment, can't snap out of it. Don't know what's wrong with me. Had depression in past but came off tablets few months ago.
I'm exhausted all the time, work is hard. I'm a single parent to 3 children ages 6, 14 and 18, my 18 yr old does help. I don't have time to do housework which stresses me out, I can't keep on top of it.
I'm putting pressure on myself to lose a stone and go to the gym but there's never enough time.
I'm drinking a bottle wine most evenings which I really want to stop. I have no one to really talk to and I feel so alone, I don't know what to do. Should I go to doctors or just hope that it's hormones making me feel like this.
Thank you for listening x

Was your coming off tablets managed properly? My husband came off his medication for depression and it really set him back and he needed to go back on it. He was disappointed but his medication is what allows him to achieve other things like going to the gym and jobs in the house and socialising (even on the phone),
. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe worth a chat with your doctor again as it might kickstart things for you. Hope things get better for you Flowers
