Feel Depressed And Cry Sitting/laying, But It Goes Away Walking, Anyone Else, Am I Crazy ?

[hyperpots]

Can anyone relate to this ? I swear by the Bible I've noticed I can be sitting in a chair with my feet up or just laying in bed and I will literally sit and burst into tears for no forsaken reason.

I feel this weird Sensation over my Forehead, the one you get sometime right before you do cry for a reason. All I have to do is get up and walk around and that sensation goes away.

I'm by no means jumping for joy or laughing out loud, but at least it holds back the Severe Depression feeling.

How can this be ?

Some have suggested this Hyperadrenergic POTS. No sure if I have it. The specialist I saw wasn't interested in it when I brought it up.

My blood pressure doesn't go sky high while I'm up, but it stays above 100 Systolic. I'm no BP meds too. I don't always feel the gushing adrenaline while up, but I often do.

Bottom line, I could walk miles, but my problem is I get fatigued easy.

Take today for example: I was feeling like death, needed groceries and had to go to the store. While walking around the store, I begin to pucker up. I can smile at things. Not great, but 50x better then home sitting upright in a chair. Also 50x better then laying down.

I have another problem that I'm wondering if any of you can relate to: I wake up all crazy each and every morning. Before I'm even awake, my head starts killing me. If I turn over in bed, the pain shifts to the other side. It gets so bad, I get up and walk around and it all eases up. Same problem, I can't keep walking, so I come to my office chair. As I sit in my chair, I feel my right eyelid drooping. It's the craziest feeling and my right eye goes blurry.

Obviously this is all circulation problems, I just don't understand any of it ... What to do ?

I get this all the time and its from adrenaline. When you walk or move around it gets used up...adrenaline cab make you cry, feel depressed, ect.

Dani, what do you do about it ?

I've noticed this too! I believe mine may be occuring from one of the meds I'm on. After discussing this with my doctor they switched the dosage and time I was taken it... since this I've noticed an improvement in my symptoms. NOT all of my symptoms of this is gone though. I really hope you start feeling betteer, wish you the best luck on figuring it all out.

Mornings are horrible for people with issues like ours in many cases.

I feel very sleep deprived the last two days even though I have slept 8 hours.

This morning when I got up I could not see vision was murky and dim and I saw halos around lights.

Hi Steven,

I get inexplicably angry instead of crying but I think it all comes from the adrenaline. I think its both a vicious cycle and a delicate balancing act. Do enough activity to somewhat offset the surges but not so much that you make yourself have a crash either. Plus, when I over-do, I start triggering more surges, so I have to work off a little of it and then rest even when I feel like I could do more. I don't think there is a perfect solution.

klonopin for really bad days and lots of salt and water plus rest. however, I cant because I have a toddler, so I just go around randomly crying and feeling depressed...it stinks. walks help too just dont over due it. also realizing your not crazy, but dealing with a very crazy illness.

There were a couple times this summer at my moms I distinctly remember feeling really sick all over short of breath and a bit of that toxic feeling like I had bad toxins released in my gut or blood stream.

I remember getting up and going to the sink to do a few things and a bit of that feeling lifting. I remember thinking you know if I don't feel any worse getting up and moving around I might as well.

Also prior to that even-at the old house doing dishes started in tears I felt so bad sick, as I continued all the bad feelings left or greatly reduced.

It's a crap shoot there are those times activity helps.

I have also on a trip to the meat store or post office totally broke out of sick mode. Had dialogue and laughed with the clerks and totally got lost in the moment. It doesn't happen every time but about 3 out of 4 that is the case.

Hi Steven,

I also have been having the right eye droop. I went to the neuro and she said it's from the start of a headache she showed me her eye too, it was doing the same thing. They also now think I have occipital neuralgia. My head hurts daily and I go back and forth sometimes in the bed and when I turn over, it feels like my brain is sloshing from side to side in my head. haha. And it hurts. My blood pressure goes mostly hyper and can go really low if things are severely wrong. But my blood pressure goes up from standing mostly. Today at breakfast I got so woozy, and I noticed if I just get up and walk I can feel better. I don't know why. As long as I'm moving somedays it's better. I find if I can keep the inflammation down in my occipital area, these symptoms aren't as drastic. And some days I get so emotional, and it's usually from some strange pressure in the back of my head. I don't like it. But hope you are feeling better. Just some days this is depressing.
