Thinking of you....

I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. I have been there, and you definitely are in a depression, it may be mild, but it is more than just the blues.

You said you were taking Welbrutin,(for your anxiety?) but that is wasn't helping. I hope you have gone to your dr for an RX of Zoloft or Effexor, or one of numerous anti depression drugs, as others here have already mentioned.

I've suffered from depression for more than 30 years, and its definitely better with drugs. As for hormones, mine are out of whack too. I just started up with HRTs, again after being off for 2 years. I look back now and see I had a very low level depression that kept me from doing much socially. Now that I'm back on HRTs I feel better. My PCP doesn't think much about the hormone counts. But I only want to know how much longer perimenopause is going to last, and she said the test can't even provide a predictor.

I have only one major regret in my life; that I didn't get help for my depression sooner. Not that I didn't see docs, but no one prescribed ADs until I was suicidal.

Please post again and let us all know how you are doing.
