Fionamck,
Hang in there. I haven't a name for what my meds are for either. But I try to work with them to feel better.
One thing that I did... kinda blackmail myself to exercise? I started taking my daughter to the gym a couple of times a week. She really loves to go so that keeps me to the schedule.
And I love my gym... it has electronic machines... so the person before me may be lifting 100lbs... but sets up the machine and looks just like I do when I set up to lift 10!
No competition... just some exercise.And I walk SLOWLY on the treadmill...
But everytime I come home I am feeling better than I did when I went... everytime. It is amazing. And I guess the little bit of lifting weights is helping me to burn calories too.
Maybe you could blackmail yourself too? Silly sounding idea, I know.
