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.

This was VERY helpful, actually.
I feel much better knowing that it isn't just me. I've requested Prozac from my doc... I have no problem masking the effects with another drug. I can't function like this!
