I'm going through really bad depression what do I do ?
I have found that if u like music an ipod and headphones can be stimulating and lesson the boredom of housework - hopefully this is taken care of by now, just a thought and best wishes
L.S, how long have you been off pills? I have thirty days today, and I still have little motivation, and bouts of depression. I am guessing that this too will pass.
I'm glad that works for you. I'm tapering off the fentanyl pain patch, but I still take my xanax and elavil at night time. I have been on them both for many years.
I hope you sleep well....Take Care...LS
Sorry to hear your feeling depressed. I too felt that way for a long time. As you say simple things like laundry etc seem to be an effort. My doctor gave me AD's but I feel well enough to go back off them now. Have you been to see your Doc? I know AD's are not the answer for everyone but he/she might be able to suggest something else? Not sure what to tell you except to plod along and try and keep doing the mundane things like clothes washing etc as you do feel better in yourself after you have done them. I am wishing you all the best LS. Take care

I'll head to bed in half hour... I'd think about "pills" on and off but I ignored it. Its hardest, but I can do it. Just keep ignoring and get that out of my mind!!! Argh. I just took 1 tab of Xanax half hr ago so I have to wait 30 more mins then take toradol w/ flexeril then go bed. During early AM and Afternoon I break Xanax in half - I take half tab of Xanax then 1 hr later I take Toradol w/ Flexeril (take every 8 hrs as directed). Bedtime - 1 tab of Xanax, wait 1 hr, then take Toradol & Flexeril then hop in bed. Ive been doing this and so far it helps. I'm hanging in there and keep fighting.
I think I will as soon as I take my night time meds in a little bit....hugs...LS
Go to bed. Dream good dreams, Thats what I'm gonna do.
