I made an earlier appointment to see her.
My depression is getting worse.
It has crippled me.
I barely can walk
All I do is lounge about my house doing nothing
I do however muster enough energy to take care of my pets. Barely

Maybe consider upping the dose. I need 5000IU daily for it to make a difference. Maybe try and find your sweet spot.
The health authorities are very careful with their recommendation of 400-800 IU daily. This equates to less than 15 minutes of sun daily with 22% skin uncovered.
“In summer and spring, with 22% of uncovered skin, 1000 IU vitamin D doses are synthesized in 10-15 min of sun exposure for adults.”
