Hello Joey83 and welcome to our friendly and supportive Community.

I am sorry to hear you are not feeling very good at the moment.

I see you are off work but not sure if this is due to ill health or perhaps other reasons.

Now tired, that is a much talked about topic.

Keep posting Joey83, more information would be helpful. Is there anything in particular that you would like help with? or are you happy chatting.

hi Lottie,

I'm off work due to the depression and eating disorder. been off last 2 1/2 weeks, off for at least another 2 weeks. feeling a little brighter this morning. struggled to sleep, feeling anxious.

Had my medication increased before I went off sick. just scared that I'm now on max doses of these and not sure what will happen if these don't work.

Hello Jo,

It will probably take several weeks for your increased medication to take effect. It is understandable that you are anxious and I would suggest that you talk to your GP about your anxieties on your next visit, if you have not already done so.

I am not sure whether you are or have been referred for further support, for example counselling. It may be an avenue worth considering and I would suggest you speak with your GP who can refer you to the appropriate service.

I wish you well Jo. Try to be kind to yourself and take care. We are always here to 'listen' and support you.
