I am new to the community. I've been struggling with depression and anxiety for some time now and just feel that i needed someone to talk to that actually understands and can relate to what I'm going through. My husband tries but he just doesn't understand why I randomly cry at nothing or that I can't express my feelings sometimes. I have started therapy, but they are booked solid for 3 weeks at a time so they are of little help to me.

Welcome, and congrats on reaching out for the help that you need. I understand what you mean about depression causing one to cry at nothing and honestly, sometimes I still can't express what I am feeling cause I don't know. You are not alone so feel free to chat here anytime. I think your husband will begin to understand over time, for now maybe just tell him, you don't need his help fixing how you feel you just need his support and comfort through the process of healing. My husband is a fixer too, most men are. Until you can see the doctor have you found any kind of ways to help you get your thoughts out? Maybe writing in a journal, it could be helpful for when you see the therapist. This road is a tough one, but you have already taken the first step by getting an appointment, I am super proud of you! Here for you if you ever just need to chat.

Thank you so much I really appreciate it. It’s hard to talk to people that aren’t going through it themselves

Hi

I went through clinical depression and anxiety on an off for 18 years. Someone recommended acupuncture to get rid of both. After 5 sessions I was free of both. I recommend you try it but first make sure that the doc has treated people for Depression and anxiety and had success
