I wonder if these symptoms are part of my depression?!

Question: I wonder if these symptoms are part of my depression?

I was diagnosed with depression last week and prescribed zoloft. I have also been on my period for 2months straight. I started on the pill to regulate me and i have an appt for a pap in a couple of weeks. I haven't had much of an appetite since my depression got severe. I've felt fine the last three days but my stomach is still being dumb..almost anything I eat upsets it. I also have these other symptoms too..
--Light headed
--Eyes not wanting to focus
--Arms and legs going to sleep quicker than normal
--Abdominal pain under ribs
--Lack of appetite still
But idk if these symptoms are from my meds or if there is something more wrong with me than depression. Anyone help me!! Thanks!

Answers:

Your particular problem could be depression or due to your period. If you've been having your period for 2 months straight, something is wrong. With having a period lasting that long you are probably anemic and need some B-vitamins and iron. With your body lacking those, that could be why you're feeling so depressed. Be sure to ask your doctor about this, ok?

Good luck.

depending on your medication, it could be just side effects to the pills, i take pills and at first i would feel light headed, have weird "goosebumps" and a rather heavy lack of appetite. they period extension and abdominal pain is something to worry about, maybe you should see a doctor
