I had a great weekend, I'm doing well in school, my relationship with my Sig. Other is going very well... and yet I'm unhappy. I'm tired, feel run-down, lonely, don't feel like leaving the house or going to class (I do anyway, but I don't WANT to). I've had some problems with some friends this semester, but I've been pretty chill about that for the last few weeks.

Could it potentially be my medication? I just started back on Wellbutrin and Dexedrine (not positive on the spelling on that last one) about a week ago.

Maybe it's the weather. It's all gray and rainy, and I always feel a bit tired and down on days like this.

It could just be my brain being dumb, but... I just want there to be a REASON for the way I'm feeling. That's really the most frustrating part of depression, for me, the feeling horrible without any discernable reason.

Any theories? Anyone just want to talk to me? I sure could use a friend, right now.

I get anxious over stupid things, so i don't know what bothers me part of the time either. Perhaps there are some little things that are still bugging you in the back of your mind. I'm sorry, if I'm not much help. I know how hard it is sometimes to figure out what's wrong. All I know is that it's usually something that you aren't consiously thinking about, but ist still in the back of your mind. I'd say talk to your therapist to try to figure out what's really bothering you and help deal with what it is.

Could be, some things have been bothering me, but I'm thinking I might have a mild case of Seasonal Affective Disorder. Or maybe not. Who knows.

I sort of have that sometimes, where I'm just depressed for no reason....and sometimes, I think there really isn't a reason...I mean, you just, for whatever reason, just can't feel good...I guess that doesn't tell you what's wrong, but sometimes I kind of think that nothing is causing it, and that it just happens

I've always wanted to do the light therapy thing, just to see if it actually works...

Thanks for the comments, folks. I'm feeling a lot better, now. Still don't know what the heck was up with that, but all I can say is thank God it's over, for now.
