<em>I've never taken medication for depression or anxiety, and I never will.</em>

Dude. Knock it off. Would you take ibuprofen for a headache? When you get old will you take benazepril for your high blood pressure? There is NO shame in taking medication for depression. It's a medical condition related to low seratonin. The drugs can help and you don't have to take them forever. I speak from experience.

All of the symptoms you listed in the three bullet points in the previous post are CLASSIC symptoms of the disease called depression even if you are not currently feeling "blue".

Get thee to a doctor. Now. You have a treatable medical condition.

...and don't forget to read the Noonday Demon.
