Re: Symptoms
Okay, first things first: don't Google, it'll only make things worse.
Your doctor is right, depression does make you tired; mine's acting up right now and if I had the opportunity I'd basically hibernate. It's a pain in the backside, but it's one of those things I just have to live with. Also, I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but 3 beers is a lot if that's what you're drinking every night. In any case, drinking to relax is essentially self-medication, which is another Very Bad Idea.
You need to be kind to yourself, but also to start taking measures to alleviate your mental health issues. Certainly, more than one session of therapy would be helpful. Remember, the cit's also going to make you more tired when you step your dose up - I'm on it myself and have usually been really grateful for the way it helps me sleep, but I don't have two children and I can't imagine how hard it must be for you.
Hang in there, but please don't fall down the Health Anxiety hole? The further you fall, the harder it is to claw your way back out again.
