Hello

[Butterfly29]

Hello! I have been suffering with anxiety for 8 years now. Recently I've been having a really hard time and have developed some pretty bad depression from being so plagued with anxiety every day. I don't drive and am a little agoraphobic. It's been a rough couple of months and I just need some friends who actually know what I'm going through.

Hey and welcome :)

I know what you're going through (I think). I'm currently sitting on my bed with earplugs in (because there's too much noise), smoking cigarettes and drinking tea. I can drive and have a car but going out would just be a nightmare for me right now. My GP and shrink are both on holidays, my dad is away and I can only handle my mother for short amounts of time. So yeah I'm feeling pretty down right now!

All the best,
Gypsy x

Hello and welcome aboard. I know exactly how you feel, the daily grind of dealing with anxiety can take its toll. It's important to get out of the house though, the last thing you want is for the agoraphobia to really take hold.

Remember that your not alone, and that in time, you will fully recover.
