How Can Severe Depression And Fatigue Be Treated?

Tired all the time no energy, I have been diagnosed with depression, its hard for me to hold a job because sometimes I feel okay then other times get irritable and cant seem to not say anything and then feel bad afterwards. I was also having trouble sleeping, huge burden of problems, things dealing with. And another thing that I m very sensitive to the drugs I take I sometimes only take a half of a pill. Clonazepam at night which I might be able to stop so Im not so tired during the day. also I take generic for Paxil 1/2 10 MG twice a day. Also started taking the Latuda,1/2 pill once in the morning helps not to be too anxious and not so tired .

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I’d advise you to go for a morning walk and exercise everyday, spend time with friends and family. Go on a vacation. Maintain a healthy lifestyle and good diet- include almonds, walnuts, liver meat, flax seeds, etc.

Besides doing all the above, take an adequate dose of antidepressant for an adequate period of time.

I hope this answer has satisfied you. Feel free to ask any further questions.
