TodayI felt so depressed that I did not want to do anything else but stay on my mattress on the floor. Somehow I felt that I had no energies to do anything, but then I decided to have two nicotine gums and my mind was refreshed within few minutes. Nicotine is good for battling against depression.

Hi mjseu, I hope you feel better soon, I know first hand that depression is awful to endure. Are you on an antidepressant or antidepressant type med? It can make a positive difference in how you feel.
Nicotine is good for SZ - it helps with mood and cognition - but nicotine should not replace taking the right med.
Nicotine also has its drawbacks - high blood pressure and vascular complications could arise from taking it for too long
No I have no antidepressant meds at this time, I had these some time ago. I do have three different blood pressure meds. Yes, I know that depression is quite awful, somehow it just takes all energies and motivation to do anything.
maybe you can ask for an antidepressant? It could help

Yes, depression is bad, fortunately I slept well last night and I did not feel depressed at all in this morning.
