I am scared to ask my family and friends for their help because I have always been a very outgoing individual but recently have found myself batteling my emotions.

Avatar f tn It is quite common for women especially but also for men to be diagnosed with depression when it really is low thyroid condition. Dr's are seemingly quick to prescribe anti-depressants but loath to test for Free T3 and Free T4 or believe that depression symptoms are associated with low Thyroid. I think it is a pharmaceutical conspiracy. They can make more money selling 6 drugs to cover (not cure) 6 different symptoms than a single drug that cures the source of all 6 symptoms!
Avatar f tn Hi there and welcome. Wny do you feel that? Is it because of his sexual desire? Truth is, many men do have low libido and still have enough testosterone. What other symptoms are you seeing that have you concerned? If you look at it from a medical point of view, he is less likely to take offense. If you say "you aren't manly, you never want to have sex", he might feel hurt.
Avatar m tn As a result, men who are depressed are more likely to talk about the physical symptoms of their depression such as feeling tired rather than symptoms related to emotions. In either case you need health insurance for your hepatitis C, liver disease or depression as these can be expensive to treat. If you don't have health insurance through your employer like most Americans than you should get a private health insurance plan.

682891 tn?1226692630 Going to a phyiciatrist will help talk about medications. Medications will lessen the symptoms of depression while therapy will help get to the root of your issues and sort them out. Medication and therapy combined is the best treatment. Especially therapy if you are uncomfortable speaking with people close to you about your depression!

Avatar f tn What this research by the Washington University doctors boils down to is that people with manic depression, both male and female, suffer from higher rates of childhood sexual abuse, and although this is, as usual, more common for women, men with manic depression suffer particularly elevated rates of abuse.
Avatar m tn I wish I had a way of attaching pictures to these comments, it would help a lot. Once again thank you again for your help.
Avatar n tn I also have many symptoms that would seem to indicate MEN 1 syndrome including high cortisol and high normal gastrin levels with pain in my pancreas every day. My testosterone was just checked and it was 274. But, I don't have PCOS. I have symptoms of a pituitary tumor - including intense intracranial pressure and hearing loss in one ear (left). But, only one MRI back 2001 showed a possible microadenoma, but they weren't sure, so it was dismissed.
Avatar f tn s very effective in dealing with problems - everyday problems, depression, anxiety, sleep problems, eating problems, everything. It can help you out and just as importantly, keep you happy when you're through this and feeling happy again (which WILL happen, I can just about guarantee). Just ask whichever therapist whether they know CBT (they almost certainly will, it's quite common) and try them out.
Avatar f tn Could it be true the men actually have your pregnancy symptoms as well?? My boyfriend now complains about nausea, heartburn, and fatigue now that I'm pregnant. I laugh at him but he takes it quite serious. Could it really be real?

Avatar f tn Well there are several types of depression, major depression, chronic depression, bipolar manic depression as examples. Symptoms of depression can include an extreme feeling of sadness, sometimes you can’t sleep or you sleep too much, you cant concentrate, you feel hopeless, you have negative thoughts that you cant control no matter how much you try! you can lose your appetite or sometimes you even gain appetite. You can be easily irritated.
1611901 tn?1347014184 d say yes, to your question about Free T3 likely being too low. It needs to be high enough to relieve symptoms. Your ferritin is also too low in the range. Here is some info I found previously about ferritin levels. "FERRITIN test: Measures your levels of storage iron, which can be chronically low in hypothyroid patients.
Avatar f tn I find having someone to talk to about how you're feeling helps a bit. Also I started taking high dose vitamin D (2000IU/day) and fish oil and I've found it helps to stabilize my moods on the days I remember to take it. You can also talk to your doctor if you feel you need medication. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Pregnancy wreaks havoc with our entire bodies, and can change the way you see situations and people. You can tell your SO how you're feeling, which might help.
484508 tn?1290010544 Depression, lack of energy, loss of sexual interest, may be symptoms of low testosterone. Your physician has wisely chosen to repeat the test to confirm the value. Usually morning testosterones are highest though the variation in the course of the day tends to diminish as men get older. Generally, though, I would suggest a morning value along with a prolactin (another hormone that rarely is related to low testosterone) as well as a check on your thyroid function.
1504275 tn?1300756436 Family history includes severe stutter, thyroid disorder (not sure which), heart disease, genetic serotonin problem which seems to strike around 35, leaving women in my family nauseous and unable to swallow or function otherwise (does not appear to affect men), depression and anxiety, and alcoholism.
Avatar f tn I know many men who have lost their jobs and cannot support their families in any fashion. This is the time your family needs to pull together, have a family meeting and discuss all this. All of you decide what can be done to cut back on expenses, explain that you're doing your best (which you are) and that you want to make the best of this situation. I know it's depressing, it is for all of us but you can only do so much at this point.
