Hi, everyone I'm new to the forum and I'm trying to

feel my way around, so that I can become comfortable

posting to the site. I have some depression and anxiety

issues that sometimes get me down.

Hi Comingup18! Welcome to the depression forum. We all understand what you are going through. Most of us go to therapy and (or) take medication. I do both.

I hope posting here helps you feel better. Depression and anxiety are no fun.

Feel free to discuss how you feel or about any problems you are experiencing.

Hugs, Karen...

Hi comingup18~

And welcome to the depression forum. I too have depression and anxiety. It's no fun but I do take medication and have a wonderful doctor to work with. You don't have to go through this alone. Talk to your doctor, maybe a therapist, clergy, friends, family and of course post here. There will always be someone who totally gets what you are going through.

I'm so glad you posted!
Warmly,
Chutz

You've taken a step in the right direction. Just reaching out for help can make you feel better. Reading and recognizing that others are dealing with similar problems with daily living can be so helpful to make you feel like you are not some strange person. We all have our things to deal with.

Participating in discussion would be the most helpful. There's no shame in having this affliction. The shame is not trying to make it better. We're all in that same boat with you.

Welcome to the forum.

Check out our resource thread at the top of the forum.

5-6 pages of help site, phone numbers,

then coping skills and books.

Peace
