Hi I am suffering with depression, stress, anxiety and loneliness. I applied to vitaminds but they have not replied, so I am looking for help please.

Hi, sorry about your problems. All I can tell you is what I have done. Since becoming depressed about six weeks ago I have enrolled with Talking Therapies, have had the initial assessment and now counselling will hopefully start in about six weeks. Also I've rung Mind a few times, you can ring and talk to someone every day if you need to, if I'm having an anxious time they are there to listen and talk to me. Are you under the doctor for this? I have started on Sertraline, 50mg to start with, increased to 100mg, am now starting to feel a bit better. I have also just started on Propranolol which I can take when I feel the anxiety coming on, but I don't know whether they work yet. I live alone and am lonely too, difficult at this time particularly. I find trying not to let worrying thoughts take over helps, but this is difficult. I spend a lot of time watching series on iplayer, something to concentrate on, I find it helps. Best wishes
