My friend made a good point to me earlier when she was talking about her OWN mental illness. She said that for her, she felt as if her anxiety almost balanced out her depression and made it more tolerable, and when her prescriber upped her meds when she was getting more anxiety, she started feeling more depressed.

I wonder if I'm like that too. For the most part since I've started Zoloft my anxiety has been in check or has been at a reasonable level at appropriate times (ie when I was reasonably worrying about a friend's safety). But recently I feel as if my minor depression is starting to hit me again.

I DO get episodes of depression sometimes but this is a bit different feeling. I'm just so so so tired. I want to do nothing more than sleep. And I just feel the heaviness lingering there. Even when I'm with friends or doing something fun, it's still there pressing down on me so it doesn't last long, and then when I'm done I just want to sleep. It takes me a bit to get out of bed in the morning to get to class, so sometimes I run a bit late (I've managed to get there on time though).

I dunno. I'm used to feeling anxious more than depressed. I'm telling my APRN next time I see her, but how do I cope with this until we get my meds right?
