Hi I'm in need of some encouragment. my anxiety is getting the best of me today. I've tried walking and doing things around the house. nothing is making it better. I think the depression is really strong right now too. I hate feeling like this. I'm tired of it so I'm just in need of some kind words and to know I'm not alone.

You’re not alone. I feel this way sometimes too. Tell yourself that you’re strong.

You are not alone. If you read the posts on this site you will see that. Years ago I was on a medical leave from my work. I had problems with depression and anxiety but kept it to myself because I thought I was the only one going through this. After I revealed what I was dealing with other people I worked with came to me and said they have had problems with that too. I was amazed, turns out anxiety and depression are a lot more common than you think.

Are you seeing a psychologist? Are you on any medication? If the answers to those questions is no then I highly recommend doing both. I went to a place where they had therapists and psychiatrists. The psychiatrist handled the medication and worked together with the therapist on treatment. That would be my advice to you if you can. Around here it's 7-8 months to see a psychiatrist. Mostly I work with my family doctor. Hope this helps.

purl1,

"Reach for the stars--they are out there for me.

My arms are not too short and my eyes can plainly see..

That my wish, my dreams can all come true, the day I make it so,

To get rid of negativity and positively let it go."

You've got this. You never are alone.

Sending gentle hugs :) xx

You are not alone. I go through this too. It’s just plain luck that I’m feeling OK right now.
