...See more I'm on (edited for medication name by BurningEmber) for about 2 years for Depression and GAD (General Anxiety Disorder). My therapist did humor tests along the way and the result was normal about a year a go. It got to level 4 severe depression. The depression is no longer here (or so I think, or at least not near as it was before) and anxiety symptoms are under control. The main problem is I'm very sleepy now. To be 100% I need to sleep over 12 hours a day (8 hours at night and a nap for 4 hours). Of course I don't get to do it everyday, so I'm always tired except on weekends. My doctor said it's probably not the (edited for medication name), it's probably low Vitamind D, so I started taking it about 4 weeks a go. It sure helped me a little, I can do chores around the house again, but I still feel like a slacker sometimes and it is still difficult to get up in the morning and I don't feel great about working or cleaning the house. Could it be depression sinking in again?
