Hey JK. Sorry to hear of your difficulties. Couple a questions. Are you by any chance taking a drug called Acutane for your acne? Do you have any history of depression or mood disorders inyour family. How long have you felt "down"? There are all sorts of great people here & on the other PB boards who can offer terrific insight & advice. Unfortunately I'm not one of them. =0)
Different moods manifest themselves in just about everbody. A situation can dictate a certain mood. Changing harmones in our body as we age can effect our moods. When these moods become exagerated & long term they might be indicitive of depression or a mood disorder. This is an illness which can be treated with medicine & therapy. Sometimes these moods correct themselves. You might want to talk to your doc about how you are feeling (if you are comfortable doing that & trust her/him) With your docs help you should be able to determine if some type of intervention is necessary or if this is sometning that will resolve itself. Meanwhile keep posting here. You'll find alot of good "listeners" & folks who can relate to your situation. Take carekid
