Hi guys been a really long time since last posted. Just so you know I suffer with anxiety and depression and tried a number of things to help the issues, but I know how to deal with and help thanks to talking just that simple little thing. When my anxiety was really bad I had to leave my job as I was a DJ and I couldn't even force going in to club with people because my anxiety was so high. After few months of being like this my wife got me an appointment with therapist who works for MIND (the charity in UK). I spoke with her for a few weeks and she totally helped me understand why and how my anxiety was starting and how to use coping methods to help calm myself back down. So that was extremely helpful since then I've had no anxiety problems and this was like 3 years ago, but the depression has always been an issue for me. I've had it since I can remember so maybe like 21 years now it comes and goes but few weeks back had it really bad. Got in touch with Dr's and all they wanted to do was give me tablets to treat the issue, I understand that tabs work for some people and if they do don't stop using them, I'm just saying try talking to friends, family, Dr, therapist psychologist heck even you dog if they will listen but be sure to look after your mental health and well being. I wish everyone happiness and you can all get through it.
