Stress takes me off my meds because I end up feeling tired all the time.  Now I'm in a hole I don't think I can get out of.  I'm behind at work, and can't catch up.  I'm not prepared to be around people.  So far behind in housework that I'm out of clean clothes.  I'm supposed to begin teaching summer school tomorrow and I have no lesson plans, no materials, and no desire to worry about it.  What can I do?

GET HELP NOW.  I was in the same situation and didn't do anything about it.  I ended up in the hospital, feeling suicidal.  I am not sure what kind of Summer School you are teaching, but if you can, you might want to take a leave of abscence.  Even though you don't want to deal with anyone, it is a very bad idea to isolate yourself.  I would suggest asking your doctor for a real life support group (not just web.)  When you are feeling up to it, you might want to hire some cheap help until you get caught up.

LonelyinMD,

I know how you feel. Sometimes I get so backed up with everything in my life and I just don't care. I tried going off my meds but it didn't work out like I hoped. Talk with your doctor, try out different medications until you find one that doesn't make you so tired. Try to exercise. Even if it's jumping jacks at home. Once the blood starts flowing it gets easier to keep doing it and will give you more energy and hopefully make you feel better. Easier said than done, I know, but try to force yourself to do it. Good luck!
