 depression?
hey there everyone! i'm relatively new around here, so forgive me if this question has been asked and i didn't see it. does anyone know much about the emotional/psychological effect of pcos? i've been wondering about it a lot lately.
for the past eight or nine months i've been dealing with something that i think is probably depression. absolutely nothing makes me happy or feels enjoyable anymore. it's noticable too (i've fought with my mother about it on a few occasions) but the most i ever get from anyone is them telling me to make myself cheer up.
yeah...that doesn't work.
anyway, i attributed it to three things: never seeing my friends (who are at a different university), my ever-present lack of a significant other (at my age i think i should be doing that sort of thing, right?), and of course my weight.
that's probably what's causing it. lately, though, i've been doing some reading up on a lot of different sites and a lot of them talk about depression as a symptom of pcos. my dr has never mentioned anything about it to me.
i guess what i'm trying to ask (with this ridiculously long post) is what you guys think about it being a symptom? i know that i can't blame my feeling worthless entirely on pcos, but i wonder if it's contributing to it? |
