so much mental fog, i cant see reality

Posted by ms. misery on April 1, 2005, at 18:29:33

Hello,

Lately i have really been tired, not just your average tired, unusally fatigued. THe time period in the morning when you wake, the dazed period. But this is all through the day. I lay down, but i dont go to sleep, i just sit and stare. At night, it is also hard to get to sleep.

At times, i am not even awake, i am bearly functioning, lethargic, or when anxiety comes, i feel im flouting out of my body.

Is this some lack of oxygen transport.

Thank you very much

catrina

It could be a lot of things. It could be your thyroid. It could be depression. Are you currently being treated for depression?

I'm sorry you are feeling this way.

Maxime

I have felt that way and found out I have two things going on:

1) blood sugar problems
2) overactive thyroid

SO, I would go to the doctor and rule out any physical cause for this. Sometimes we are so quick to think it's mental when it could be physical problem with a mental manifestation.

Get it checked. Don't wait like I did!

Yes, i have been on Wellbutrin 450mg XL, supposly it is an activating anti-depressant. Bad side effects, i felt more anxiety, then flouting out of my body.

I do take 10mg of Dextroamphetamine, helps but fatigue is still there.

Thyroid i dont know much about, would you mind telling me what you know, im sorry for asking.

But thank you, maxime and spriggy.

The Beloved
