I've lived with depression social anxiety since I was 16 ... I'm nearly 40 ... After some bad news a month ago my depression and social anxiety seem to have hit rock bottom ..d. I sleep all of the time and feel like I am trapped in my own head ... Usually exercise helps but lately it doesn't ... I can't have conversations with people and I find I talk about the same thing all of the time ... My cinfidence has hit rock bottom and I've totally had enough ... Can anyone give me any advice plz

Clare123, For me it was therapy, therapy and then more therapy. Until I was finally finished talking and started moving forward. xx

Hi Clare123, do you mean everytime you go to therapy nothing happens or are you not even able to get an appointment.

Hello :-)

Everything you are thinking and feeling is normal when we have anxiety /depression so be reassured that this is normal

I would go and speak with your Doctor and see what options if it be meds or Therapy they can offer you , please to not sit suffering when there is help out there if you ask for it :-)

Not sure if you are already a member or looked at the other sites on HU but there is also one for Depression , I will put the link on and you can have a look if you have not already :-)

Take Care x
