Im really happy I found this app. It is encouraging to read posts from others that reminds me, I am not alone. My anxiety and depression have been so bad lately that I feel like I want to rip my skin off. I recently started on meds about 3 weeks ago, and just yesterday I started to feel a little better. I try to talk to my boyfriend about how I am feeling but I feel like I just scare and worry him more. Hoping to find some support and encouragement through this difficult time.

I know that is scary. Sometimes I feel really bad too and I don´t tell anyone because I don´t want to worry them. I think we are going to find the strengh inside of us and after we feel a little bit better, the rest will get easier!

Has your boyfriend ever told you that it scares or worries him? In the past I have tried to spare my husband by not talking about my feelings or just assuming I am a burden. After talking to him about it though he says he wants to support me and that he wants me to talk to him and not just pretend I am fine, he said it actually hurt more when he could see I was upset and wasnt talking to him about it. Sometimes our assumptions are wrong and it sounds like he has been there through some bad times and is still there so he must care about you a lot. I hope things get better for you with the new meds :)
