What was wrong with me I would ask myself over and over again why can't I function like a normal person. Then I would ask myself what is normal. For years I could hide my depression and it was my secret, but for the past 3 years it has gotten to the point I can no longer hide. It has destroyed me from the inside out. All I want to do is hide from the world and everybody in it. My bedroom is my hiding place there I feel secure. I sleep 14 to 15 hrs. a day. I am so tired I am unable to complete the most minute task. My mental status is shot. I can hardly remember what I just said and I cannot concentrate on anything. I'm presently taking Celexa 20mg. and remeron 15mg. Every time I go back to the doctor he tries another drug. I've been on prozac, zoloft, paxil, etc. They seem to help with the moodswings but I am so tired all the time. If anybody has any suggestion I would deeply appreciate it. Before I found this website I felt as though I was alone, but thanks to all the messages I have read I know there is hope.
