You are certainly not the only one. So many of us here feel exactly the same way. I admire you for reaching out and joining us. My oldest daughter started with depression & anxiety her senior year. We sent her to several psychiatrists but never helped. Finally we found out she was suffering from Bi-Polar disease. It took awhile to find the right medication for her but eventually we did. Years later my husband was also diagnosed. I'm like you not wanting to do anything and find it very hard to find joy. I tried Wellbutrin but couldn't take it. Just today I started Lexapro and Remeron. I'll let know if it helps. I want you to know we are all here for you. You're welcome to PM me as well.

Hi Jim, thanks for asking. I started the meds last Friday. I\'m taking the Remeron at night and 1/2 a Lexapro through tomorrow and the up it to a whole tablet. I may notice a slight difference. In my opinion I seem to be in a blah mood. But I don\'t feel the heaviness as much. Going to see if things get better. Sure hope so. How are you feeling today?
Thank you, I'm feeling pretty well today. I don't enjoy the neuropathy pain, but I'm moving up on Gabapentin to see if the benefit will outweigh the side effects.

Has the new medication begun to help? I know it takes time really to feel the effects.
