I will be taking my 13th injection tomorrow. Oh the emotions.............I have been awful. I am generally a very level headed non emotional person myself. Now I can't listen to certain songs or watch certain movies. I even just start to cry for now reason.
I am not sure what it is. I was dx'd in February so I am sure I am probably still going through the emotions of a dx and the disruption it causes.
There is also my age and the hormone issues that can come with it. So, who knows. Avonex can cause depression. I have never had trouble with depression. But maybe that is what is going on. It is difficult to know.
I hate throwing other medications into the mix just to deal with the side effects of a med I am already taking. That makes me crazy!
The thing that helps me the most is making sure I get enough sleep. Not just rest but SLEEP.
I know I didn't help any but I can sure relate.
