Answers:
Get your thyroid checked!. Make sure s/he does the Free T4 and Free T3 (both of these should be in the upper third of the labs range) along with TSH!. Antibody testing wouldn't hurt, as most women are hypothyroid due to Hashimoto's disease!. Lab's are TPO (thyroid peroxidase antibodies) and antithyroglobulin antibodies!. The usual "thyroid panel" on the lab req is useless!. Many symptoms that sound like depression are really endocrine!. The stress could be adrenal related!.!.check cortisol levels!. At least rule it out before starting any anti-depressant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your feelings are unique and yours alone, you feel that way for a reason!. Doctors can only prescribe medication that may or may not help!. Your thoughts good or bad is what drives yours actions!. Think negative= feel negative, Think positive+ feel positive!. No one can control your thoughts but you and if your asking "whats wrong with me" you will think of things that are wrong with you!. Focus on all thats right with you, and start by being nice to yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should deffinitely see your doctor!. If anything he can talk to you about why you are feeling like that, medicine isn't always the answer!.

I have a suggestion that i highly recommend!. For a while I was dealing with anxiety and depression!.!.!. I took an herbal supplement, St!. Johns Wort and it made me feel so much better!. Since its natural I think its a lot better than some depression medication!. What it does is basically make you have a more positive mood!. You should ask your doctor about herbal treatments if you are worried about medicine and how it will make you feel!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are many different prescriptions that are available for depression and they each have their own side effects!. Talk with your doctor and he should be able to help you find something!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
