Am I depressed? Or is it just a phase?

Question

I already take meds for adult ADD but my motivation is gone. I don't have any energy to take care of my house, my office is a mess, and I don't even care about how I look. It puzzles me because I am supposed to be planning my wedding, but I have given up on the planning. Any advice?

Answer 1

Is it the drugs? Maybe you should tell your doctor and see if they can help with your dosage. Adult ADD drugs, if wrongly diagnosed, will make you feel as described.

Not caring does sound like depression however, but do you feel unhappy? Why have you given up on planning your wedding? Thats something to ask yourself. See your doctor and tell them.

Cheers.

Answer 3

I would make a list of all your symptoms and bring them to your doctor.  It could be the medication and they may want you to try something else or It could be fatigue as well as depression.  You really need to share this with your doctor so they can rule everything out.  Yes, It's a possibility!

Answer 4

You need to talk to your local doctor. For your wedding it might just overwhelming you take it one day at a time, you might want to ask for assistant in planning it. Congratulations

You might want to consider talking to a therapist this could turn into major depression on you. You well be withdrawn from family and friends. Start talking to your doctor about the way you feel.

Answer 5

Yes you have undergone panic attack, anxiety and depression.

Step 1: Ensure your emotion is controlled daily. Don't over reacted, stay calm and don't get worry easily

Step 2: Think before your action. Don't repeat her past experience on herself. Remind herself from time to time.

Step 3: Be confident to yourselves. Remember everyone is the winner. "Only One sperms out of millions fertilize an egg"

Step 4: Get a group of close friends to share your experience and get some activities that would occupied your time

Step 5: Increase scope of life. Meaning that she should involve in more social activities like dancing, outing and others.

Step 6: Put a rubberband on the wrist. If there is a negative thought, Tighten the rubber band and release it. Hence the effect of the pain would be able to reduce the possibility of negative thought.

Answer 6

it sounds like you're depressed but i'll agree with the others that it could be the medicine you're taking. have you changed medicines recently or changed the dose? as far as what you should do... call and set an appt with your doctor and let him/her know what's been going on.

i have depression and what helps me sometimes, is to just make an effort, however small, to do some things in order that things don't "pile up" and become a bigger hassle".

i do things like; take a shower, even if i dont feel like it; try to wear clean clothes; i try to put things away and not let things get cluttered; that helps me; at least feel like i'm doing something... until i can feel better and actually feel like doing those things and other things. :) not everything gets done like i would like it to. but, i do get some things done and i dont feel "as" out of it.

i also think you could be exhausted, stress can do that and planning a wedding sounds stressful etc. maybe someone could help you with the planning and that could possibly motivate you more?

i'd like to say ask someone for a little help if you feel you could use it; but that may backfire since i dont know your situation exactly. i hope you feel better soon and be sure to let your doctor know what's been going on with you.
