Me-not-me,
How apt a name, first of all!
Have you read any of my past posts on the filth that I live in?
I don't think your meds are working optimally, and should be reevaluated.
One thing you should consider is evaluating your thyroid functions. See Mary Shomon's site at
www.thyroid-info.com
for more information. She also publised a book called Living Well with Hypothyroidism. I have found a great deal of relief from finally getting a handle on my hypothyroid condition and treating it with sufficient thyroid hormone. This augments the ADs I am on, but also addresses the subclinical hypothyroid, which causes symptoms like lethargy, fatigue, lack of motivation, brain fog, etc. Another good resource is The Thyroid Solution by Ridha Arem.
If thyroid is not the issue, take a look at the meds you are on. What are you on? Do you take a Stimulant?
Finally, are you in therapy? It can help, too, in combination with medication.
Thank you for writing so honestly. I relate to everything you said.
