I think my recent depression may be a combination of things...and mostly PMS Secondly, I know my SO gets tired of doing his stuff, PLUS add the stuff I'm usually responsible for on top of it, and I'm sure it's just too much for him soemtimes. He's one to always overexaggerate how "busy" he is all the time. He has his own business, works only 6 months a year, gets up at 9, to work by 10, home by 3:30 or so...yet he's sooooo busy whenever he talks to someoene. Knowing that about him, I just kinda fell apart for a while. I'm better today, after a weekend of laying on the couch, being lazy one day...then helping out a bit the next. I'm still not "me" but I'm also physically SPENT as well. A lot of that has to do with the darned restless legs not allowing me rest. I hate that. I do take topamax at night before bed. And the provigil...i don't thinkt hat had anything to do with this bout of depression. I think it was hormonal. I HOPE SO anyway. It's just I think a lot of ppl are pushing me to get disability...yet I don't want to admit I'm worse than before. I'm not helping out so I dont feel I'm "worth" much anymore. I AM getting worse...not much better. The weathr sucks, and is sucking every bit of energy out of me that I had left. It is just a phase, at least I hope so. I'll give myself until next weekend to "snap" out fo this. That will give me a nice 4-day weekend and I see the doctor on the following Monday. If I'm not out of this funk ny then, I'll talk to him about this. I do appreciate all everyone has done/said to help me thru this. I knwo you have all been where I am at one time or another, so you can all understand. Nobdoy was quick to push me into counseling, but you WERE quick to "get me" whereas nobody in "real life" culd. All they asked was "are you on antidepressants? Maybe you need more!" In actuality, I think they worry about me....but I don't think they understand this "cycle of pain" we're all in sometimes includes this bout of depression that does go away after a bit. Thank you all for being here for me...for EVERYONE really. You're all fabulous.
