All the time, I was not thinking or admit that I have depression until recently it affect my work tremendously and a few friends here in mylot point out to me.
I really know now that I have depression that I cannot stand 9-5 job. Although I tried my best not to fall asleep or crack under pressure during 3-4 in the noon but I still do.
Until now I know that I am not fit to work long hours unless 4 hours that is fine with me I won't do that so much.
The question is that I see my psychiatric doctor in the year 2002 until now and I do feel better but why do I still developed sleepiness and weakness in my body?

Do you have any unfulfilled tasks in mind? Or do you worry about something that is beyond your control? Depressed patients usually worry too much about something and that is really harmful to the mind. I suggest you go out with your family often, talk to them. Relax whenever you have a chance. I think it could be because of your colleagues, who you've mentioned in a recent post. As I said, don't worry too much about what people think. As long as you know what you're doing and it's right, go ahead and follow your heart!

Yes it is due to my colleagues problems and falling out of love as well!
I am doing exercise in the evening everyday to relax.

Are you on medications to treat your depression? If you are then perhaps you need to have those medications reassessed and perhaps be given different dosages of them. If you aren't on medications that you are taking to help you deal with your depression, perhaps you need to have some medications prescribed to you that will help with the depression. That said, there are several people in my family that deal with depression and once they were started on medications their lives returned to normal fairly rapidly.

I already felt that feeling before when I was so depressed and even don't have the power to do all the things that I want to finish. You will be very lucky if you can do all your task in a day and then satisfied your boss, it will be difficult but we still have to do it.
