need your help

I needed your input on what is going on with me lately. I've had problems with fatigue for years and years now. Although the doctors keep insisting that It could be my thyroid, because it's been in my family for generations. I went through alot of tramatic experiences when I was a child. When I was about 17, I begged for help from my doctors to help me with my anxiety and depression. They put me on all kinds of antidepressants, switching them around often until we found the right one, and I've been on zoloft ever since. But there are times on and off in my life that I couldn't get out of bed, Because I was so exhausted and in pain. Then a couple of years later it would get a little better, and then back to the same thing. I remember comming home from school, taking off my backpack, falling on the floor in front of the fireplace, and then just passing out. Sometimes I would sleep for anywhere from 9 to 15 hours a day. Im getting really frusterated with this now. Not only is it on going...it's destroying my relationships with people. Especially my fiance. He never thinks I want to go out with him and have dinner..I always want to stay home, and I always want to go to bed. I can't figure out what is wrong with me. I don't have insurence, so I can't really go to the doctors and have them run all of these tests, I can't afford it. But I'm also affraid to what it could be. Recently I moved to Los Angeles from a small town out in the middle of nowhere. And the fatigue has come back. Im not sure if it's depression causing the fatigue..or fatigue causing the depression. I really need some input and some advice.

Re: need your help

I do not think this is CFS, because CFS is not just about being fatigued.

A low Thyroid can definitely cause the symptoms you describe. When you can, I would get a blood panel for your thyroid. I don't think it very expensive. At the same time they can do a hemeticret to see if you are anemic, which can also deplete your energy. Of course, depression can as well.

All the best!
