Struggling with Parenting and Mental Health

Before being put on meds about a month ago I was having a really rough time. Crying most of the day and yelling at my kids so much. The crying and yelling has gotten much better, but I still have no motivation or energy. I still have moments where I feel like I just can't do it anymore. I'm at home with my twin 3 yr olds through the week and work on weekends so I have zero "me" time. My husband works nights so through the week it is all on me. I have a 13 year old daughter as well. I don't know if everything is just getting to be too much or if the meds need to be increased. ๐Ÿ˜•

Definitely talk to your doc about this. Sometimes folks need a higher dose or a slightly different med. There are also other meds that can be added on to your current antidepressant to sort of give it a boost. There are LOTS of options. Sometimes it takes a while to find just the right med(s) and dose
