So I have been taking this Zoloft for a month now. I have definately calmed down. I'm not as anxious, and I'm definately not irritable anymore. This is wonderful! But now my problem is that I just don't really care about anything. I don't want to go back to work, I don't want to diet, I don't want to sort through my husbands work stuff. All things that need to be done, YESTERDAY!!! I havent made any real plans for Thanksgiving and family wants to know what were doing. I believe my husband is starting to get really aggravated with me. I have always made a lot of the decisions in the household and I feel like I'm just giving up! Isn't this depression? Why am I on anti-depressants and now feel even more depressed than before? Well, at least I don't cry at the drop of a hat, but I just can't get motivated for shit.

How do I get motivated when I just don't care?

hang in there!  And check w/ your dr like the first post mentioned.  Come give me a visit again and we can share some more stories.  Maybe an evening visit on a Thursday.  I've been swamped at work with getting ready for our new events and changes.  Thur night I am ready to stop and just sit to chat.

 Hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving.
