Slowly

[Brose1706]

I am slowly trying to cope with my anxiety and depression but I think coming into beyond blue has been a good idea. Just hoping I can learn to cope with all of this 🙂

Hello Brose, and a warm welcome to the forums.

Its always devastating to realise that anxiety and depression are now controlling your life but pleased you have joined the site where you can firstly read the threads that interest you, and secondly we hope that we can help you through this.

It may sometimes be awkward for people to feel comfortable talking to those who have been through and still going through, unfortunately, about how they feel, but please remember we have had to struggle with some type of depression ourselves and know what you are trying to cope with and feel very sorry for you.

There are links for various people to contact, plus your doctor will also be able to help you, so please I hope you can get back to us.

Geoff.
