Don't Know What To Do
I am struggling really hard with anxiety and severe depression. It has taken over my life and I can't find any joy or hope in anything. My family and close friends know about it, but they think I'm doing ok. In reality, I'm getting so much worse that I hardly get 4 hours of sleep every night because of my anxiety and I can't focus on anything while I can't find reasons to wake up in the morning anymore and feel like just giving up. Anytime people think I'm working on school stuff, I'm either having anxiety attacks, crying, or just lying on the floor feeling like a worthless piece of trash.
I'm hopeless. I don't know what to do or how to cope anymore.

You have to attack your anxiety dead on. I know is a scary thought but search for the reasons why you have those anxiety attacks. many times the reasons can even be subconscious.
if you can't find the reasons and work around them then get professional help. Nowdays there's many free ways to get a therapist!

I'm so sorry to hear that you're struggling so much with anxiety and depression. I can understand why you may find it easier to keep it all to yourself, but in the long term, this isn't helping you at all. You need and deserve a support system to help you through this. Talking with at least one person you feel you can really trust about what you're going through is a must. Consulting a professional who can help you is also a really important thing to do, if you haven't already. I wish you the best of luck with everything. You'll get through this.
