Unhappy Confused ...

Hello all, I could really use some cyber hugs.

I'm on 30mgs of Paxil, which just about works the best for me out of all the meds, ie raises my mood but doesn't make me feel numb. I've been on metformin for a couple of months and it's really helping with the tiredness and weight gain that come with the Paxil (I'm around 266 lbs)

Whilst I don't have the black spots so much any more (apart from the week before my period) I still have zero motivation and am not getting so much enjoyment from things.

I am in the middle of some fairly heavy duty therapy which is churning a lot up maybe that's why I still feel lousy.

Hey ho. I'm just confused because I know I need to lose some weight to help with the symptoms of PCOS but right now I just do not have the energy or motivation. It's enough getting to therapy and getting myself out of bed every morning to keep up my part time job.

I feel like a failure because I can't bump myself up enough to do this. I guess I could (and am) making small changes but even shopping for myself is a chore.

Glad you're all out there

KH

Please don't be so hard on yourself! Take small steps! It seems like you want to change alot at one time, but these things take time! I KNOW it is hard to be patient! But one day at a time!
