Depression setting in

When i first went into have surgery and the few weeks after i had read about allot of people goin through depression . at that time i didnt see how or why they would go through that butthats all changed. i myself think im on the verge of it.ive been nauseated for 2 weeks straight nothing calms it down no food or drinks and to make matters worse i havent ate hardly anything because of it . im just misserable and very unhappy . i see my doctor thursday but im barely hangin on here . ive always been a very strong emotional person but this stuff is just breakin me quick . i just feel ran down and like i dont even wanna move around for any reason. any advice ?

If you are exercising regularly, eating right, and getting your vitamins, you may need to take anti-depressants if your depression is bad enough. It's temporary, so don't panic. I've been in treatment for depression for 14 years, so I know how painful it is! Talk to your doctor about treatment options ... If it is mild (and stays mild), just wait it out. hang in there ... You can e-mail me if you need someone to talk to! Hugs, Annette

I am 6 weeks out and have struggled with this as well. I was already being treated for depression for the last 6 years but the meds I was on I couldn't continue because they were time release and it killed my stomach. I am on Liquid paxil and it is working ok. I had a real problem with anxiety at first also. Your body is going thru so many changes hormones are messing with your emotions as well. Taking meds for it is not a bad thing. Good Luck Jenny

I am also struggling with depression. A lot of the members of our "group" are happy and full of life. I feel sick a lot of the time. I'm eating very little, however I struggled with the scale all week. It did not move. I realize that this to shall pass. I hope things get better for you. Thank you for sharing, it made a big difference to me! Clair
