I don't want to take medication for this, I am open to herbs or something natural. If I am not crying I am a royal nightmare in my moods and I do recognize this and let my husband know.

I know I need to get back on the exercise wagon but I just have no motivation to do anything. I like to sleep, then I feel like crap.

I would love advice or someone to come and drag me out and make me hike, get on my bike or just plan do anything. How do I snap out of this?
You are describing classic depressive symptoms. The proper medication with supervision can be very helpful. "Natural" really doesn't mean much and in fact some "natural" remedies can be more dangerous than correct medication.
