I sank into two months of depression and was not motivated to do anything. All I did was eat , sleep, make dinner and wash dishes. I keep promising myself to clean but just don’t have the energy to do so.

Oh boy, this sounds just like me. AndI thought it was the effects of winter. This is the best news I have had all week. Even though I am tapering off 1/2 mg at a time, this tells me that I am sure depression will be part of my future. With that knowledge I can fight it. Thank you Kareena. Keep remembering that Spring is around the corner, even though my neighborhood is expecting a whopping great snow storm this evening.
