How Do You Cope With No Energy?

Posted by AKC on June 29, 2001, at 8:38:00

For two days I have wanted to post this, but I can't figure out which board. I have no energy 95% of the time. I am on a lot of meds, and I know that when I am not in a depression, the lack of energy is likely, well not likely, is a side effect of the meds. So this may ought to be on Psycho Babble. But I am not looking to change my meds or the dosage or wondering which med it is, so I also think it doesn't belong there.

Instead what I am looking for is the encouragement, the wisdom on how you keep going in the face of the fatigue, the lack of energy. Hence, my decision to post here. I have just recently come out of another bad depression so I am not struggling with that ever present question of why even bother. Instead it is more the how. How in the face of this illness I have to fight daily do I keep ahead? I'm in a high stress job - one that I have somewhat formally asked for a "reasonable accomodation" (I hate those words, but that is for another post on another day!). Its the getting up, getting to work, staying focused, walking my dogs, cleaning my house - the daily living - all of it, when I have no energy. My question to all of you is how do you do it in the face of no energy?

Thanks.
