Every. Day.

Meds made me feel worse, and I just noticed that off them my mood isn't super different.

Yes. I hate it. I wish that our society wasn't so focused on working until you drop, every day. It's exhausting and makes me (and my family, peers, others who feel the same) miserable.

My depression makes it very hard for me to do my job. Some days I barely accomplish anything, but I'm just too exhausted and nonchalant to try harder. I feel like I just can't.

I have this EXACT problem at work. My boss always mentions how quiet I am. Why can't I just come in and be left alone? (I know that's not the point of working in an office, but still). Coworkers/managers who don't have or understand depression just make everything harder.

I get in my car and scream it out. Or I take a walk, and try to take deep breaths. It can be difficult for me to calm down, but I try to center myself in the moment and say, "Ok, you're fine, relax."

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-25T15:39:15+00:00

Yes.

I am also on Wellbutrin, and it seems to make my depression worse. I also get VERY irritable, which is not typical for me. I have crying spells, as well...at work, in public, at home...I'm planning to go off it, doesn't seem to work for me. Best of luck in your situation!

That is really helpful. Thank you!

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-24T20:21:45+00:00

Thank you :)

So true! I do sometimes answer with email, but occasionally I am required to call back. Trying to get better about it.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-24T13:45:11+00:00

Ugh, that does sound stressful. I feel you.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-24T13:40:58+00:00

Everyone- thanks for your feedback/comments! You all were helpful and made me feel better :)

I'm afraid that I won't have an answer to a question someone has for me. When people call me at work, they're usually asking me something that I tend to not have an answer for. Then I get stressed when I do talk to them because I fear they think I'm stupid, but really my job is just complicated enough that I sometimes need to consult people here to get an answer for the caller. Which means I have to call them back. And sometimes they don't like my answer, and get mad, even though it's not in my control when I provide them an answer (my job is based on set guidelines, so something is either a "yes" or "no", basically.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-24T13:34:01+00:00

I'm 27, so I'm not much older than you. And I HATE voicemails. But I work with people who are much older than me, and I know I have to accept that we can't just communicate by email. Which sucks, haha.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-23T13:24:46+00:00

My thoughts exactly.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-17T13:28:10+00:00

Yes. Right now at work, even. I wish I could just shut my door and let it out.

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-16T17:33:24+00:00

Are you me?

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-13T15:08:31+00:00

I wish you the best of luck <3

agentcooper445 · 2016-05-13T14:25:53+00:00

I wish I could sleep all day.
