Hi my name is Cody I’m 22

I suffer from

Depression and anxiety

What I’m trying to do for myself is create a better life for myself. It’s hard and I need all the support I can get. Any input would be helpful

Have you seeked any type of professional help?

[Cloudyfish in reply to tashalyn]

Yes. I’m currently taking an anti depressant, lexapro. It’s hard to see out therapy tho as im active duty military. The services that are easy for me to get aren’t helpful enough. Services outside of military are really really hard to get.

Am sorry to hear that you are battling depression and anxiety the same time you are on active military duty. Has it been 6 weeks since you started taking the Lexapro? Do you feel a slightest bit better?

Hi Cloudyfish, thank you for your service I'm on Lexapro as well. For me it's been a great drug. Give it time to work effectively. Also use YouTube to help support you right now. Some of the videos can do much in making you feel more in charge of your life.
