Confused How do I pick myself back up???

I don't know if this is just a vent or if I need some advice . I've had some pretty life-altering events in the past three years and I believe it's all starting to catch up with me. I find myself withdrawing from everything (my family and NT included). . I've always been a very tough individual but lately I just don't seem to care about anything. It's taken me a couple of weeks just to post about this . I'm already on an AD and I'm not willing to change meds because I've been extremely sensitive to other AD's in the past. I'm just wondering if I need to give myself more time to adjust to my 'new and unimproved' life? Here's some background for those of you who don't know already: Moved to Florida less than three years ago away from all extended family and friends, got a well-paying job shortly after but had to go on LTD this year, dx with MS May of 07 (I went from working 60 hour weeks to now walking with a cane and having some major cog problems), my youngest son had to have traumatic Crohn's related surgery in 06, my mom died in April of this year from cancer (she was dx in Feb. and lived for only 71 days after), during that time my husband was dx with Crohn's disease and is still pretty ill, we are also in the midst of filing bankruptcy. That's all I can think of off the top of my head . So, what do ya think?? Thanks for reading if you got this far .
