What's my deal

I'm not sure if it's anxiety or depression. Maybe both... I'm not sure if I have a negative outlook because of being brought up in a negative environment or if this is just me. I don't like myself much lately and I'm not sure how to fix it. What's sad is, I don't truly know how I am. A co worker told me maybe I needed to "get laid". I take celexa, I only know it works when I'm off it and feeling extremely agitated. Idk how to fix this... me.

Sorry to hear you're feeling like this and dealing with this!🌻😞but just know that you're not alone and there's a lot of really great caring people on here that understand!! Also try not be hard on yourself!! Maybe try some deep breathes &try to find or think of some things that you really do enjoy doing and that have made you feel happier or more relaxed in past? Sad to hear you don't like yourself very much right now-😟what do you think is making you feel this way? 1 things for sure you seem like a fighter and smart -you made the effort to search out help and found this site!!I thought of this for myself - because I've been in some pretty low sad times myself and and researched and looked searched and prayed and ended up finding this site and I felt great about discovering it because it is a resource with people who get it!! So Good job for that, right??👏🌻

well....I'd stay on your medication....but if your still feeling that badly, maybe you should get your meds adjusted. You should be feeling a bit better on your meds. Are you in therapy...that's a great way to sort out all your stuff. And yes, it's nature and nurture, meaning that although we are born with a chemical imbalance that pre-disposes us for depression, we also have environmentally learned experience's from the life we have lived. It is important to address those equally, and heal emotionally as well...it's a balance we do all our life, and some days are better than others.
