Hi Guru and welcome to the forum

Good on you reaching out to other people who also suffer from depression and anxiety like myself. You've come to the right place to express your concern and get support. We are here for you and you can talk about anything in a non judgmental environment. We understand how you feel.

Would you like to share a bit more about you? so we can assist you better and tell you what worked for us in terms of coping and getting better.

My thoughts are with you and look forward to your next post

Sola

Hi Guru_the Emu, welcome to the forums.

Well done for being proactive and taking the plunge. It takes courage...

Depression and anxiety are illnesses. Canalizing illness into healthy channels doesn't come easy. That's why social isolation often goes hand in hand with mental/emotional conditions. Of course, it adds up to your distress and is difficult for everyone involved. A combination of treatment and coping strategies does help.

We'd like to know more about you and your situation so that we can help point you in the right direction and support you the best we can.

So please feel free to continue to post, as much and as often as you feel comfortable with. This is a safe place to do so, your space to connect, share and/or let steam off. Rest assured you will be heard. We can put out heads together and figure what can be done. There's a vast pool of experience, compassion and good will to tap into. Judgment doesn't come into it.

Good to have you on board.

I don't know what to do anymore.

Hi Guru_the emu

Just want to say thank-you for making your first post. I agree depression and anxiety can be incredibly frustrating and draining on someone. Can I ask what you mean by you can't get your depression and anxiety out in a healthy way?

However, by talking to people about what frustrates you helps a lot. I encourage you to continue posting and I hope to hear from you again.
