Anhedonia, fatigue, anxiety....what's going on?!


Question:

Anhedonia, fatigue, anxiety....what's going on?

I've had what seems like depressive symptoms for about 3 years, and have tried everything from SSRIs (side effects sucked, did nothing), to herbal remedies incl sleep aids + 5htp etc. (no side effects...still did nothing), to just a good old vacation. The vacation did some good, where when I came back I had the best sleep of my life, and woke up feeling great for a day, only to have it go away quite fast. What's going on? What should my next step be? Some recommend Kava, but I hear bad things...

Work/school life are both stressful, and could be contributing, but are unchangeable as of current....

Any and all help greatly appreciated.


Answers:

I had to look up anhedonia to figure out what to say..so take that for what it's worth...

anxiety/depression are interesting disorders... only the doctor for sure knows where that line is crossed I guess....I have one my husband the other and we each take different meds..

so...my first quess would be to go back to your doctor and say, "this isn't working" and go experiment.

everyone's body chemistry is different...and

while work/school life are stressful ........yoga is a way to unlock the stress........

what are you doing for you??????????
