lack of motivation or lack of depression?

Posted by ants on October 8, 2004, at 16:09:51

I have read so much about people losing their motivation while on Effexor, and I am worried that this is happening to me. I guess I don't remember what "normal" is.

In the past I have made a lot of rash decisions, trying to make myself happy. In hindsight, I think I was running from my depression. Now I see that I need to take my time and that its ok to just live day to day. But I also feel like maybe I am just losing my motivation to do what I really want to do. I really dislike my job, and for the past 5 months it has been a daily struggle to get out of bed and into the office without crying. Now, 2 weeks on Effexor, and I am ok with it. I still don't like it, but I don't spend all day re-writing my resume and creating a business plan for my "big venture".

I guess my question is am I just feeling the effects of not being depressed and miserable, or am I losing my motivation and entering a drugged stupor?
