Granny's gone and done it again

[ValarieF]

I just spent 45 minutes outside doing chores and checking goats. Going to have to force myself to get at cleaning the barn. I get so out of breath carrying a bag of feed from the car to the barnyard, it's ridiculous!
Husband wants my bedroom cleaned out so i can get my new electric bed installed. I have not even finished painting the bathroom yet!
He just totally doesn't get it that there's something wrong with me! When i first got depressed, he didn't get it why i would sit there and cry. When i finally got some meds that gave me what i needed, it was so much better! If your brain is not producing the chemicals you need, then medication can make a huge difference.

I feel you Im so sorry hun. my hubby got a taste last night when I did too much yesterday and couldnt walk last night. I needed him to help me to the bathroom. I too suffer from depression ( bipolar depression) the medicine makes a huge difference! They just dont get it!

Thanks Val! He doesn't believe i am sick, but i know there's something wrong. I need more in depth lab tests, and a better doctor.

You know I did test this past week and have been doing back and neck mri's. I am waiting on test results for the blood work. But I have arthritis, degenerative disc disease in my neck and back and spondylosis in my neck and stenosis as well as thinning and something else. lol so my neck and back are messed up and Im weak and no strength in back and legs

Keep us posted Cynthia. Hope his symptoms aren't that bad. Speaking of which, what are his symptoms so far?

I hear him blowing his nose. He will test himself today..may be too soon..but I think he needs to for work. Testing Ashton isn't an easy task! 3 year old, thing up the nose, nope.

Glad you brought up the fact that the brain isn't producing certain/right chemicals, and that meds help balance that out. Not many folks are told that. Just..here..take this..it will help. Drs need to explain better..not saying they all don't, but a lot don't.

most dont
My story is about the same as yours. surprise surprise. lol Went for a little while. Talked til I didnt need to anymore and then celexa. I was told I have ptsd. I dont know about that but the meds helped me. It was like I could finally breathe. Later down the years and my moms passing threw me into a dark place and my dr. added abilify . I am still depressed but not like before.
