Hi Jessica,

Thank you so very much for sharing your experiences and insights. I appreciate it very much. I tend to stay to myself and not reach out to my friends and family and then the depression just hits me so hard that I cannot function at times. I can tell you understand. I appreciate your good advice and you really hit the nail on the head!

I have done the same with food. Always been an emotional eater. Hope you are feeling better!

Thank you for sharing your personal experience. I didn't know a medication would stop working after such a length of time. I had the opposite problem with a new medication my doctor prescribed and after just a short time I was sleepwalking and my mind was not right. I have a Friday appointment. Appreciate the well wishes.

I was on a depression medication but I started sleepwalking while on it and it scared me. I had never ever done that before. I am not currently seeing a counselor.

I was in a great routine until my cat had to be put down and I adopted a new one. Now my sleep is all over the place, my cat keeps me up at night meowing non stop for can cat food and cuddling with me. It's so adorable but..I am tired throughout the day. I'm probably getting 5-6 hours of restless sleep verses my normal 8 hours restful sleep. I think my exercise routine has been lacking my motivation as well. Does anyone nap? I thought about taking a required daily nap, but that doesn't work with my weekday schedule. Guess I'm going to have to put my foot down and tell my cat NO.
