Sufferer of depression and anxiety

[CatLover4]

Hi everyone, ive battled with depression and anxiety for a very long time. Ive tried and tested medications to go off and try something new. I live daily with chest pain, depression where i have melt downs daily and cant handle life. I often feel i would be better off dead so im not living with this pain every day. Im sleeping alot. I spend my day working then come home and sleep. Ive lost interest in all activities. Ive realized i have to deal with this on my own as friends aren't there when you need them. Ive given up on people.

Hi. I'm also dealing with depression and anxiety by myself as I don't have any close friends for support. I have reached a point where I only go to work and then back home. I dread going to other places such as grocery stores and I usually postpone grocery shopping until I have nothing left in the fridge and the cupboards. I have no motivation whatsoever and have lost interest in doing things. It is currently affecting me at work. I want you to know that i know how you feel and that you are not alone. Welcome here and hugs to you. PS- I love cats too

Hi CatLover4. I understand how you feel. I have been on every depression medication out there and they only provided temporary relief to the ongoing struggle of worthlessness, anxiety and not feeling like life is worth living. I also understand how difficult it is to wake up every day and feel like this, do the best that you can to make it through the day and not have anyone there to truly understand how you feel. Instead they tend to minimize your feelings of hopelessness by piling on all of their negativity not realizing how you just need to be able to unload and just have someone listen and understand. Don't give up. We have to find others who do understand and can help us through.
