I’m new here, and been replying to some posts, and thought I’d introduce myself. First, let me say I’m skeptical about a forum such as this. However, I know the support from other fellow anxiety and depression sufferers is invaluable.
My depression and anxiety are usually well managed with medication, therapy, and lots of family and friend support. But, a few months ago, my depression began to creep in slowly. I’m working closely w my psychiatrist on medication adjustment and am on the 3rd round. I am barely making it to work and functioning. Mostly my ego has kept my feet moving. I just want to throw in the towel. Showering is hard. Ugh!
I have already received much encouragement through this site and look forward to offering and receiving more tools to help us get through. To the best of our ability. One day at a time.
Thank you for allowing me to share in a safe place.

Congrats on being proactive about medication adjustment! I hope you get some relief soon. I suffer from anxiety more, and depression less, but I've had those days when showering is hard, too. Super fatigued days. I admire your persistence. Keep going!
Yes! Me too, general anxiety has been around a lot more often than my depression. This is my second depression episode that has rocked me. They both suck!
LilyAnne was one of our rescue dogs. A beagle. She was the sweetest, most loving “puppy (9 yo when she died in December).” I miss her terribly. She made me smile and feel comforted, and I’m glad she can continue doing that for you ❤️
She was terribly abused when she was dumped at a shelter in Northeast Florida. Through a long set of “coincidences” she was flown down to us (SWFL) by a caring pilot and the rescue employees. When we got her she was “afraid of the air.” It was one of my joys that after 5 years with us she was able to be demanding about things (attention and food). Rabbits still made her nervous, but she had one who would go nose to nose with her 🙃
