Oh, Juni. You've nailed it. I feel very much the same. Now that I'm no longer in school I find myself drifting, drifting...which, as a recovering person, is NOT good (my own head is a bad neighborhood). I have no purpose - no reason to even get out of bed. I'm depressed, too. Came on about Thanksgiving and was really bad at Christmas. My doc put me on a new med but it makes me eat and sleep. I've been sleeping 12 hours a night on it!! and soooo tired during the day. Ugh.

I DO need a reason to get up and out and interact. I feel like I'm being buried alive.

I was thinking of the Salvation Army- to volunteer. Surely that would help me feel grateful?

Juni - could you take just ONE class towards your MS? to start with?

ETA - maybe you should see your doc?
