dd is now 2.5 and i had pnd when she was born, have been off th AD's since she was about18 months and have had ups and downs but lately seems to be all down

i am so tired all the time, its getting me down. the reason i ahev not posted this on the feeling depressed forum is because i do suspect it might not be depression causing the tiredness rather the tiredness making me feel down

but i cant really work out why i am so so tired all the time, rests (when i get them) seem to help very temporarily but then i am back to square one

i do work 3 days a week and look after dd the rest of the time, as dh is doing up the house at the moment, but when i look at how much sleep i get, it's not that bad so i am considering going to GP

our sex life is non existant, i am grouchy almost all the time, feeling fed up about work, snapping at dd and dh - basically feel i am doing a bit of a crap job at the moment

do worry that the gp will just assume i am still depressed and put me back on AD's which i dont think i want,

hi gingernutlover, hope your extra vits etc help. i went today and they did bloods to check my kidneys, liver, thyroid, anaemia and blood sugar i think. won't hear unless there is a problem. she also suggested more exercise and possibly even LESS sleep! she did also say that it may be down to work stress too.
hope you're feeling more energetic soon.

surprisingly to all of us , but I think , recently after this covid thing people started to feel exactly as you describe . Weak , exhausted , unmotivated . Seems getting reasonably enough of a nights sleep , still feeling and body aches , and sluggishness. While moving you don’t feel that bad , but once sit down for a 5 minutes to see the TV , looks like you can’t get up anymore . Personally myself I did exercise a lot before , I love the sports, I’ve been super active , and now , I still do loads of things during the day because I got used to that but with terrible difficulty. And indeed it’s not a depression. Mentally I feel very good and positive , but something is sprayed into the air that people started to complain of being exhausted. I’ve heard from many of my friends and people from different countries the same story . No matter age , no matter race . One of my friends is working in a pharmacy in America , and said that nearly 90% of all customers buying depression pills . Youngsters , adults , elders , no difference . People are not mentally ill but feeling simply super tired and weak . So they think this tablets will help them to cope with situation . Britain is not far from it . As I said it can be simply something in the air that effects people . You never know what do these governments are up to .

Why did you resurrect a zombie thread to post this nonsense?

Have you moved on from being worried about what's in the water?

you think you said something dramatically funny!?
google bottled water effect on health, get some Alevels education in national affairs , and picture will clear off for you .
only recent bombarding in Eastern Europe , fully destroyed electricity grids and power stations , exploded gas pipes , toxic dust from explosives …you think it doesn’t effect quality of the air !? We are just around a corner from them …
