I've been searching for other people who feel the pains and frustrations I do. I've been checking thru some of the discussions and am relieved to see I am not the only one to have medicine but still feel like crap. I am hypothyroid and was diagnosed about 4 yrs ago, and still no relief. Finally seeing an endo dr and hope is there. Just wanted to know how many other people suffer with the extreme depression side of this illeness? I cry almost as much as I sleep, I can't hold down a job, force myself to make it thru daily chores and childraising is a challenge with 2 hyperactive, attention deficite disorder children (1 with oppositional defient disorder to boot). I am loosing my mind, I have no family, no friends and a boyfriend who works 6 days a week. Always alone, and when someone is around me....I'm either crying, or angry! I hurt from head to toe, headaches everyday, forgetful, blemishes, swelling, moodswings, and at times feel like just giving up. Someone please tell me that all this can somehow end. I am tired of hearing, "Oh you have a thyroid problem, no big deal, medicine will make symptoms go away, why can't you work...you get medicine right?" I've had symptoms since age 11 and no meds til I was 27 yrs old, let me tell ya I was soooo close to falling into that coma. Depression is getting the best of me and I need it to go away!
