It's all starting to the the better of me.
Between my diagnosed anxiety and the shit-show that the world's become, the medication isn't going the job it used to. I'm starting a new job in two days and I can't even get pumped for THAT. I'm thinking about going to the doctor and see about changing my medication, but I don't want to turn into a ow-performing zombie.
Ugh, wish me luck, guys.

For me, it's mostly depression I acquired at an advanced age. Most anti-depressants I tried years ago brought on speedo mode and physical anxiety which became dangerous out on my high-danger jobs. Started driving badly, too.
A combo of meditation, chores or hobbies with positive results, writing my fears and other emotions in a journal and a self-designed cocktail of herbs and small amount of prescription anti-depressant has worked pretty well for me for years. But, like you, the stress of recent years is tearing at my system.
I hope you can discover a combination that works for you and thanks for sharing!
