I know its hard cheekygal, but please, please try to keep going and do 'normal' stuff, the more you do it, the easier it will become, I promise you. I hit the same place last November and would have been quite happy if a bus had run me over. Tried HRT (not able to take it, gave me Burning Mouth Syndrom, sob), tried anti-anxiety pill (just the one Mrs Wembley), but it made my dry mouth symptoms worse. So plodding through without anything now, taking baby steps and one day at a time, but things are starting to look up. As Daisydot has asked, are you on HRT? In the 3.5 weeks I was able to take it, it made the world of difference and still upset I am not able to take it, so this may be a really good option for you. Take no notice of your stupid doctor! Keep going cheekygal, just one foot in front of the other, no matter how long it takes. x
