COMING OUT OF THE DOLDRUMS.

COMING OUT OF THE DOLDRUMS, OR LEAVING DEPRESSION BEHIND.

A couple of months ago I decided I had to do something upon my depression and/or deep funk state. For many months I have been lethargic, as in without any get up and go. At first I attributed it to my advancing age, then I said no, this is not me.
So I started looking at the side effects of my medications. Not surprisingly I discovered that one of my meds has a major side effect of inducing depression. It happens to be a medication to help control and reduce my blood pressure. 

I discussed this issue with my doctor and we agreed to cut the dosage in half. By golly the change seems to be working. I have actually started having more energy and more willingness to want to do things. 

I am glad now that I started looking into this personal problem.

So If I have any advice to give, it is never give up, when you aren't feeling right, find out why, it may actually be something that can be fixed.

God Bless from the gahillbilly.
