Depression :: Lack Of Energy
Apr 11, 2015
I don't know if it's anything to do with my depression, but I have absolutely no energy. I move so slowly that I look like a 70 year old. I feel wooly headed and don't fall asleep till at least 4 am every morning. I'm wasting my life sleeping all day. My doctor seems really disinterested in things and puts it down to my getting older. It feels hopeless that I'm doomed to feel like this for the rest of my life. Has anyone else had this feeling of living in slow motion?

Three months ago I had a Cystocele and hysterocele surgery, It was done by a good dr here in Spain, he promised everything was going to be fine and the sick leave was of 40 days. The surgery was through the vagina, he removed the uterus, left the ovaries and lifted the bladder with a "net". I was happy the following day: no pain, no feeling something was dropping out from my vagina... I had repose for one month and a half, then I Started to have stings inside, I came back to dr and told me I refused the stitches, he had to cauterize. Now the stings have gone but for one month I have felt the same sensations I had before the surgery! It's like someone were pulling from my top of the deep vagina, I feel again something dropping and feel as if I had something inside the vagina. My dr said everything is ok, nothing out of normal. Then I started to visit a pelvic floor physiotherapist last week and said that everything is ok the net is being absorbed by my vaginal tissues, but I'm still healing, the scars inside are tight and my pelvic floor is too weak. Besides she has found out that I have a little rectocele! And my gyne didn't tell me anything about that! I am so sad, I can't stop crying, too worried... I have not tried sex yet... I feel sad about my kid and my husband cos I am all day obsessed with this and I don't feel like going out... I used to be a sportive person but I am not anymore... By the way, I began work three weeks ago and feel too weak and depressed, Very hard for me get up in the morning, I went yesterday to the social security dr who is the dr that gives you the sick leaves and she prescribed tranquilizer and told me I can work. I feel I can't go on with my life... I feel that I'm starting depression, I know that if I felt a bit better I would cheer up but I feel worse. Please anyone can help me with any piece of advice? Will I ever be happy?

First time I ever smoked hash was when i was 17 years old i didn't like it very much as my life was perfect and enjoyed and absolutely loved being normal . i did not smoke again the rest of the year and then started smoking with m cousins occasionally for 2 - 3 months usually once in a week or once in 2 weeks then we all decided not to smoke and we all quit but this year had been a complete mess i smoked a joint when it was my best friends birthday 23rd january this year and from that moment on wards is smoked alot started from once a week and ended up smoking every day in summers for about 2 months with some unexpected gaps such as on a family vacation any ways for a month or so i have successfully cut back on the use by noting down the frequency of the use and now i take 3 to 4 puffs a week i have noticed that it did not cause any major problems for me besides i fell my memory is slightly of and the attention is a little weak but the most prominent problem is i'm not as energized as i used to be . i want hash to be completely gone from my life and how long it takes to my brain be completely back to normal and secondly it affected my skin badly its pale now and the youth seemed to be succked out of it with dark circles around my eyes and its making me depressed please just give me a timeline or just an idea of how long it will take me to recover from this so i can keep my self motivated.

MY GP recently prescribed Atorvastatin to deal with high(ish) cholesterol. I have been taking Amlodipine, Losartan and Bezafibrate without any problems but in the past 3 weeks since starting the statins I feel like crap - Nausea, muscle pains, kidney pains and total lack of energy.
The blurb with the statins indicated there could be problems with Amlodipine but I started taking them.

I've been suffering from PHN for about 2 and half years. The pain is mostly around my eye, temple and forehead, sometimes the top of my head. Lately I've been finding that I get very drowsy after an "attack" of pain. Does anyone else ever get that? I can't work out if it's an effect of the pain or a side-effect of the medication I'm on (which is a mix of Cymbalta and Pregabalin).

I am stressed out. I feel older than I really am. I have a older brother. And everything we are together. People think I am the older brother. I don't have any energy. My body is 24/7 working to make me out of fat. But here is the flip side...
I go to gym 4-5 days a week. I eat healthy. I lift weights. I run. I don't smoke and I don't drink. I go through times where I am happy and energetic. But mostly I am only down. And it's not psychological. I feel it's physical. I just don't feel like doing anything. Another thing..
About 2 years ago I did steroids. I have to say when I did steroids, that time period was the happiest time of my life. I was just happy. I had no worries. Even in problems I saw solutions. I was just happy. No anger issues. No depression. Not even a thought of negatively. I was just happy as crap. I had no worries. But BEFORE I did steroids and AFTER I did steroids, I am the way I am today. And it's getting worst. I'm getting more lazy. More tired. But I force myself to keep going to the gym to stay healthy. But it's just that I just don't have the want to do anything.

I can't complain because everything is getting easier, and I am definitely much more comfortable than I was. My biggest problem is a complete absence of energy. I feel so deeply tired and fatigued. I had my first nights sleep last night, so why am I still not feeling like moving or doing anything? I want to play with my children, get the house organised and do productive tasks but just don't have it in me.... Is this your experience? Or should I be forcing it?

I was wondering what type of ways you guys use to boost your energy throughout the day, whether its coffee, energy drinks, exercise, vitamins, etc. And how effective are these for you? What are negative side effects that you do not like from your energy booster?

22nd Dec I started on 30mg pred with high CRP and ESR. I stayed on this for 6 weeks when my bloods returned quickly to normal. Then dropped to 25mg ok and saw my highly recommended rheumatologist on 19th Feb who put me on a programme dropping 1mg every 3 days till 24th March. So in just under 5 weeks I will have dropped 12mg and be down to 13mg. I haven't had any pain luckily apart from twinges in my wrists sometimes, but all my muscles feel weak and I can only walk 1000 steps daily which is nothing for what used to be a very fit person. I am having easy physio involving using bands to strengthen the backs of the arms and the hips/buttocks and 1 to 2 minutes on my static bike but it doesn't seem to be working much . I am wondering if anyone else has been put on a programme such as mine as I have bad fatigue and no energy and have to go to bed and sleep for an hour after lunch in order to keep going normally for the rest of the day. I know that my rheumatologist doesn't like one staying on high doses of pred for long if at all possible and he said if I felt any pain I was to take a strong pain killer like Naproxen (which I haven't had to resort to) and not to put the pred dose up. Having 4 friends who all managed normal lives with PMR as soon as they went on to Pred I am feeling frustrated. I expect when I get down to 10mg and then take the very slow programme, perhaps my normal energy will return?? That's what I am hoping. Anyone experienced anything similar with a programme like mine? I am very careful with diet and look normal.

I went today to a doctors appointment, he placed a headband on me hooked to a device. The device was then hooked to a computer, he said the device reads my energy and my vibrations. He said he detected many things. Like an allergy I did not know I had to bread. He also said I had blood in my urine. Also, he said that I consumed too much sugar, which I found strange since I drink mostly water and eat very healthy to my knowledge. After he was done with the test, he placed some pills, with no information on the bottle, on top of the device. He claimed that the device gave frequency from the reading in his computer into the pills, and that the pills will now work with the problems I had. I know about the placebo effect.

My face is puffy, tired, dry; Head feels heavy; Cognition is not working properly; Muscles are sluggish; Energy levels are low; Constant sleepiness... Tons of visits do docs - everything OK. Tons of supplements and drugs - no effect. Free of thyroid, sleep, vitamin, blood, organ, allergy, lyme, hiv, virus issues etc. You name it. Started along with stressful period 2 years ago. Could it all really be some mental issue creating havoc throughout the body, i.e. psychosomatic? 21 years old male.

I found out I was deficient about three weeks ago.After months, almost a year of feeling weak..weaker on one side...tired, no energy, pale color, moody, bleeding gums and sore mouth.Sometimes feeling chilled and yet at night I would sweat more when I slept. All my pain markers have been elevated proving inflammation but I tested negative to R A. I've Been taking 5000 iu's daily of D...my calcium was low too but I'm told I can get extra in my diet. I have also started Salmon and Fish oil supplement. After just one week of supplements I felt a difference. I had realized there were two days I hadn't needed pain medication.then on the 8th day I had forgot my vit D and hadn't realized till that night because I was trying to understand why I was stiff and sore and basically crawled up the stairs. Would one day make that difference? I found since..I'm feeling just as poorly...needing medication for my discomfort, bleeding gums and sore mouth...heaviness in my legs and tired tired tired. Irealize iI was months of being depleted and it will take more than one week to feel 100%...are these symptoms similar to yours as i'd love to hear some comments
