I'm sorry you haven't had a response until now. to be perfectly honest I didn't see this!

I hope you'll come back to see this. Ok, you ask if you can be depressed with just feeling "tired out." The answer is yes. For one thing, you COULD have been depressed so long, that you don't even KNOW you're depressed. You might think that the way you're feeling right now is normal. Other people would definitely say they're depressed! You're just used to it. Get what I'm saying? So an antidepressant will get you back to "normal" and I'll bet that you won't BELIEVE how good you're going to feel, and you will have NO idea how rotten you were really feeling! So definitely try the antidepressant, okay?

Sometimes they take awhile to work. Some doctors rely on the "older" antidepressants, and those take up to 6 weeks to work! Ask for the later ones, that only take a few days to work. I'm sure you're already on something, since this post is so old.

Let us know what you're on will you ? And let us know how you're feeling.

Again, I'm SO SORRY this wasn't responded to. There's no excuse. Please forgive us, as it's not the norm. We don't let posts get by like this.

I hope you'll come back and read. Anyway God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
