Good Afternoon

[PurplePomeranian5]

I am new here. I hope to find support and give support to people struggling with anxiety and depression. I think mine has stemmed from years of childhood emotional abuse. I still feel at times worthless and self esteem is low. I have many blessings, but just feel like a dark cloud looms at times.

Welcome to this very supportive community.

I'm sorry you are struggling with anxiety and depression.

I hope you have some support systems in place and ongoing therapy?

It is hard to release all the emotional baggage. I need to get back into yoga. Thanks for the uplifting words.

Welcome. With me it’s my anxiety that causes my depression. Anxiety interferes with life and makes me unreliable and unpredictable, which inside, l am not that sort of character. Anxiety makes me physically ill (see Anxietycentre.com). If you browse this site you will be amazed at the symptoms that Anxiety causes. Another good course of action is to get yourself a Dr. Claire Weeks book, lots of peopke call it their bible. You can get her books on ebay. I am sure you will get lots of support on here with your struggles as we all suffer and you are not alone. Take care.
