Suggest Remedy For Debilitating Fatigue In Intervals Causing Severe Depression
I fall into a debilitating fatigue every 3 to 4 months which quickly turns into a severe depression which lasts approximately 4 to 6 weeks during this time I m unable to keep up contact with family and friends. This time I m more discouraged than ever my feeling is so what when I get well again it will only happen again in a short period of time what s the use, there s nothing to look forward to? As you can see I m even trying a positive email address to sound better than I really am

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic
Chronic fatigue is part of depression and In that case, you should consult a psychiatrist. I think, you need antidepressant like paroxetine, escitalopram or sertraline. That would help you keep in good thoughts. You can also try few stimulant like modafinil or armodafinil that would decrease physical fatigue.
Thanks
