Experiences with

Low mood

Very low mood on verge of tears all the time. My chest aches as do my shoulders and one foot. I can't take statins so they're trying me on this. My cholesterol was 6 total and it's come down to 4.7 but I am on a low fat diet now and have lost half a stone so far.

I was taking 50 mg until 2 years ago when it was reduced due to symptoms of palpitations, facial sweating, fatigue and low mood. GP has also recently diagnosed Sertraline for low mood. Do any of you know of any contraindications? Thank you x

On antibiotics since Friday for infection .what affect do these have on general well being .on weekly b12 injections but have very low mood and energy .it's hard to work out what is what

been on lercandipine 20 mg and ramipril 10 mg bp still b 180/94 been over a year not coming down sure meds causing low mood deppresion

Since increasing my dose 2 week ago to 50mg I started feeling detached, mood low. I know hypothyroid causes low mood and increasing meds might cause an increase in sides until I get the dose right. Did anyone else feel detached? Numb? Hope it improves soon. Thanks.

Hi What do you take for anxiety and low mood ? I have tried citalopram, nothing. And duloxetine it made me feel so much better but then I have educated myself about that evil medication and I don’t take it anymore.

Hello forum users For the past year (in particular) I have had symptoms of hypo thyroidism , brain fog , low mood , achy bones . Am at menopause age too . A blood test results are a high TSH of 6.5 /T4 13.8 /TPO 257.

For over 8yrs I have had Fatigue Joint pain especially hip Low mood Hot sweats All put down to menopause. Then fibromyalgia. not on any medication. Anxiety has suddenly increased and itchy skin especially on my back at night. Easily fatigued. strangle tingling on the top of my feet.

This is how I feel when I’m in a low mood and don’t want to talk on phone or see someone in person. My former neighbor and I should be sisters.

I also feel in a very low mood. Whether it down to the Trazadone or sleep deprivation I don't know. I would welcome your experience on this.

All appears to be normal BUT, I still have chronic insomnia, weight gain around my mid-section, lack of energy, and low mood. Any advice greatly received. Thank you

Asking for my daughter who started them a couple of days ago to help with her low mood. . She is now on 100mcg and her last blood tests a month ago showed her TSH down to 50s from 93. Still a long way to go.

I’m struggling with extreme fatigue and very low mood with anxiety. Terrible brain fog and weight gain. My hormone specialist wants to try me on 75mg Novothyral as my hormone levels have improved but my mental health and fatigue is still very low, my GP wants to try me on antidepressants….

I am struggling with low mood (I'm not allowed HRT as my tumours were oestrogen dependent) and feeling exhausted, isolated and disconnected from family and friends. I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you 😊

But t4 at time of diagnosis (9.8.24) was 10.5 (range 11.50-22.70) Symptoms low mood anxiousness extremely tired cold pulse 63 Lightheaded dizzy Muscle aches poor concentration many thanks for any help

I've had 2 blood tests now with the following results: June 2024: TSH: 5.95 T4: 14.6 August 2024: TSH: 4.71 T4: 13.6 TPO Ab: 39 I have all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid and have been struggling for 12 months with exhaustion, weight gain, hair thinning, low mood, low libido etc.

I have low thyroid and am on 50 mcg. of levo, but still quite tired most of the day, low mood etc..and then every evening seem to feel a lot better in mood and energy. Is this related to low thyroid hormones or to a problem with my adrenals?

Fatigued low mood. I had my bloods done and I have to wait 2 weeks to speak to a doctor about these! My ferritin is 8.3ug/l which states abnormal amd the serum follicle stimulating hormone is 3.8.

Recently I have noticed an increase in low mood, hot flushes and cramps. I am 76 yrs old but still the hot flushes persist. I get very tired and also get tingling in my hands which starts in the mornings. I take Levothyroxine 100/125mcgs alternate days.

I do not want to stop the Trazodone as it is helping with my low mood. Is there anything I can do as the headache last till about lunchtime. It really is unbearable. Thank you all in advance.
