Frustrated & exhausted

Hi, 
I am on a number of different medications.
Sometimes I feel it's all becoming so hard to be working full time & dealing with my head but other days I'm flying high & nothing will put me down, it's so exhausting because I can't understand why I am like this.. 
I have an amazing supportive wife & 2 great teenagers ( yes there actually are great teenagers out there lol) 

I dunno maybe it's just another bad day, I got sick in February of this year & I thought I would be better by now. I'm am just frustrated 

Thx in advance.

Hey FJ,

Welcome to Beyond Blue forums. I'm really glad you're here and you decided to let us know how you're feeling.

Having a supportive family is the best! As you've described in your post, it's still difficult though 😞

Are you seeking help from a counsellor or your Dr? They can be a good source of explanation and help us put things together that may help explain the triggers that lead to our emotions bouncing around.

I get frustrated when I feel crap. Frustrated that it's happening again and that I feel like it's controlling me instead of me in control, sometimes that leads to be taking it out on others by being grumpy.

You mentioned some days you are flying high. Have you had a diagnosis from your Dr? I can understand how the rollercoaster ride can be exhausting.

Stay in touch and let us know your thoughts on what I've mentioned above. It'd be great to hear from you on those.
