> Lethargic and irritable are pretty key symptoms of depression. In fact, to diagnose depression, you only need depressed mood OR irritability. You can be depressed without depressed mood!
I'm grateful my mood is improved, but the lethargy and irritability are pretty much always present.

I agree. I don't know if I've ever felt 100% anyway. But anything is better than my "norm".
Thanks, ee.
