Feeling More Depressed

I’ve definitely noticed that I’ve recently begun to feel more depressed. I’m feeling less motivated than usual, too.

Of course, it’s only been a little more than two weeks since I received all of my surgeries. I’m still in the process of healing from major surgery.

I’m trying to be as physically active as I can possibly tolerate, interspersing activity with rest periods. I’m trying not to overdue my activities.

I have an extensive history of struggling with depression. I’m certain that the enormous hormonal changes induced by my total hysterectomy are contributing to my current symptoms becoming more severe.

I’ve been researching non-prescription supplements to assist with alleviating menopausal symptoms, given that I can’t take hormone replacement therapy. I’m currently struggling with hot flashes, night sweats, waves of nausea, abdominal bloating, and cramping. I really hope that I can obtain some relief soon.
