I call myself Zombie Girl for a reason - my energy and motivation have been zapped, I am constantly tired, have memory problems, red blotches on my face, heavy sweating, irritability, neck pain, and the list goes on. I don't know what to do next. Should I stay on it a little longer to see if the SE's go away?
