See your doctor : You need to be evaluated for what could be Depression. See your doctor for an exam. Lab studies can rule out conditions such as anemia or thyroid dysfunction which can mimic depression. Sometimes an antidepressant medication and therapy combined with Suboxone is needed to improve these depression symptoms and to enhance quality of life. Best wishes to you for recovery!
