Ellen,
I too was almost that "lump", but I refused to allow myself to just sit around and vegetate, You may have a form of depression that meds like cymbalta could help with,talk with your doctor and see what he recommends, I was put on Effexor for awhile but it didn't help, I knew the only thing that would make me feel better was returning to work, but being a diesel mechanic with only the use of 1 arm would be impossible, so I started to explore other options for work where I finaly found smething, now I've been back to work 40-60 hours per week for about 4 months and I feel great, tired but great! :big_grin:
God Bless,
tom
