Default Anyone feeling blah and lethargic?

Hi all,

I feel so blah, maybe from the weather. I just sit here a lot of the time. I do the same thing at the office. I'm always so tired and it's an effort to do anything. I don't even feel like posting most of the time because it takes such a great effort.

I feel like I'm living to work. I only work four days a week and it wears me out.

I guess I'm grateful because it could always be worse, but I feel guilty because a lot of people feel like I'm ignoring them when I'm like this. I can't help it though, I just can't move anymore than I absolutely have to do.

Can anybody relate to this? I'm hoping I'm not alone in this.

I'm feeling about the same - just blah. Haven't been on any forums much lately. I'm just finishing up my fourth son's senior year of varsity basketball, they aren't doing particularly well, we have a TON of snow (no global warming here this year ) and I guess I need to up my AD to full strength for a week.

My niece just miscarried her first pregnancy, my SIL is losing her sight with no explanation, I'm just tired.

Now, I'm through complaining.

Thanks for letting me get it out of my system!

Oh yes, I get like this a lot. It can last an hour or weeks at a time. I haven't been able to link it to anything (being sick, bad weather, "time of month ", etc.) it just seams to come and go as it wishes. I have tried all kinds of ways to "snap out of it", caffeine, walks, naps, etc and nothing seams to work.
It is different than just being fatigued. It's more like walking around in a dream I guess.

Yeah, Ewizabeth. I haven't been feeling too good lately though, so that's probably part of it.

Do you suffer from SAD (Seasonal Adjustment Disorder)? I do, and have since before they had a name for it (in the 70's). I inevitably shake out of it the first week of March though, so I'm biding my time right now.

I think a lot has to do with the weather, exhaustion from Xmas, facing the bills , etc.

Hopefully you will get to feeling better very soon.

I've been feeling a little...wobbly the past week or two. Not quite vertigo wobbly, but I do feel like I'm about to start getting the bad vertigo soon. I felt like this last summer just before my 8th cranial nerve decided to start flicking on the vertigo switch.

Ewi

I hope you get to feeling better!

I discovered this week confined to the house that if I do something I truly want to do first that I feel much better about what I do or don't accomplish in one day.

Peace.

YESSSSS~~~~~!!!!!

I keep telling myself its not depression, its the long, cold, snowy boring winter. I work, then catch up on my rest on the weekend, get a few things done, or not. Then start all over again.

My mother taught me a long time ago that there is always someone worse off than you. Gosh, I just have to come on this board to know that. AND my DH died unexpectedly and when I dont miss him I am angry at him. I am ok, then I am not ok. BUT in the long run, spiritually I know I am on a plateau. When the SPRING truly comes, I will appreciate life.. and all will be well again.

MANY HUGS AND HEALING THOUGHTS BE YOURS...

Warmly Jan

You're not the only one. I also feel this way too, more often than I would like.

Hang in there!

I've felt blah...crappy, just plain wore out the last few days, but today was the worst! It's not the weather, it's beautiful here, sunny and in the 70's. Woke up this morning feeling like I'd been run over by a truck. Feet feeling like cement blocks and hurting everywhere! Ended up sleeping most of the day. Now I feel guilty for wasting a beautiful day with my dh off work. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Gonna get to bed now...sweet dreams everyone.

I hope y'all wake up with a big smile and feeling great!

Susan
