The amotivation is all too familiar--but the anxiety component fascinates me. Is that anxiety more characteristic of bipolar depression than of regular depression? Do your meds address the anxiety?


It could be an aspect of manic depression. It never occurred to me to ask. Manic depressives get what they call "mixed states", which is the charming experience of being manic and depressed at the same time. I've always assumed that's what the anxiety was all about. My meds don't address anxiety. Gods, I don't want _another_ drug. It's getting so even I am having trouble taking all my drugs at one go. (I'm very good at swallowing pills. It's one of my few skills. At night I take 5 horse pills, two normal-sized tablets, one small caplet, and one small tablet. I can take them all at one swallow. One of the few benefits of having been sick most of one's childhood.)
