At the moment I am feel a little better.   The depression hit me this morning and I hit it will all I had.  I took my levothyroxin, waited, took an anxiety pill and took the 5HTP for depression (supposed to take 10 days for start working, Im on day 4 and took a walk.  I cried and talked to my dear husband who is so loving to me during this time and he said things will get better.  Any body out there feel the same way, things will get better for me.  You are my friends on this forum and your encouragement goes a long way.  God Bless You and Merry Christmas    love linda

Try taking some Vitamin D3.  There is something called SAD, seasonal anxiety disorder which also includes depression.  I have been taking it and I believe it has helped me get over the depression.  I don't have the severe blues it sounds like you have now, anymore.  Also, if you have not had your adrenals check, please do so.  Adrenal fatigue has much the same symptoms as low thyroid.  Under my drs supervision, I am also on DHEA, 5mgs per day and I am sure that has helped me too.  I was where you are three weeks ago and now I am feeling much better.  It is worth a try

The first thing I look for is who is on and what do you allhave to say.  I do understand where the depression came from - I guess it is unresolved stuff but that is so overwhelming to think that maybe I have to go through that stuff and try to resolve it.  Is that the way it works.  I was sure God told me it was purely physical from the thyroid.  How can the thyroid be causing this.  Just as in everything else I have to wait to see if the amino acids will work and if the extra thyroid meds will work and the eating the right way will work.  Do you have to feel so bad while all this is happening?
I don't mean to complain because I have so much, a wonderful husband, 2 beautiful children, 7 grandchildren, a beautiful home in Md. I hate the hopeless feeling.  Fortunately it isn't there all the time but when it is it is awful.  The lorazapam does help.  There I go again  I am going to stop now and thank God for his help through all this and his promises are always true.   Love you all and thank you for being there for me.  I don't feel so alone as I know you all have been there.  I know our problems are different but all are overcomeable aren't they.      love linda

Your friends are here for you, honey. You will get through this, just as I will. You'll get there. God will give you the strength and your friends here will give you encouragement.

You and I have a loving spouse to turn to and lean on. Between that and your friends at home and on this board, you are rich. You have the inner strength to win and a support group that will help you find it.

Just keep talking to us, and we'll keep talking to you. It will get better.

Unless you're stuck talking to me. Then you're in trouble. LOL!!
Merry Christmas
