Thank you everyone for your advice!
Well, I know I probably shouldn't have done it, but I didn't take my meds last night. I don't think there will be any withdrawal effects as I only took these meds for three days. I know that antidepressants can make you feel worse in the beginning, but these (Doxepin) made me so tired and dizzy and lethargic that I barely functioned. I couldn't think, I couldn't drive (and I'm depending on my car as I'm living alone), I couldn't read and I couldn't type... all I could do was lying on my bed pondering about the terrible situation (a new situation at work) I'm in.
I will talk to my doctor about this the next week, there has to be another solution. And actually I don't think this is a "real" depression, my feeling is it's some kind of burn out syndrome as a result of all the work and the worries, and the fear of existence.
Anyway, I felt a bit better today and even went photographing (and I did some more photo art tonight), and I need to be clear in my head because I need to get some legal information the next days. I don't know what's going to happen, but I least, I can try to be prepared (I'm sorry that I cannot go any further into details here, but the entire situation cannot be be explained with just a few words anyway).
Kirsten
