I would like to thank each of you for responding to my message so quickly. I never expected so many well thought out responses. I have been on Sertraline long enough to have increased the dosage. I don’t want to become dependent on pills so I don’t want to be on too many.
I have no problem finding things to occupy my time. Physically, I can do all jobs required to clean my place, I don’t seem to be able to muster up the desire to do it. I watch tv, do jigsaw puzzles and nap. This has been going on for many months, almost a year.this past year, I had surgery for hemorrhoids, three out my back, fell and broke my left elbow, a few months ago, I fell and broke my middle finger. Had my teeth pulled for dentures, it seems like I’m always recovering from some fall or surgery. This is turning into a real pity party. Sorry about that.
