Yes, anxiety and depression go hand in hand but that doesn't mean that if you have one you have both

Yes! For me it did. I'd have anxiety about a certain situation, not want to participate due to that anxiety, and therefore would get depressed.

Anxiety can be linked with depression. A common feature of anxiety and depression both is the self-beration (example: 'oh geez I'm so dumb I can't even take care of myself/I shouldn't have asked that question it's so obvious'). If you suffer from severe enough anxiety, it's entirely possible that depression might be linked.

First of all, great question. Second of all there is no answer for that. Everyone is different. Some people can have anxiety and it can cause depression. Others can have depression that can cause anxiety. It all comes down to each individuals brain and how the chemicals balance out.

absolutely yes, it's one of the many "side effects" about anxiety. Try working out, that REALLY helps :) you have to overcome your anxiety so you can overcome you depression. Hope this helps!

Yes. Anxiety and depression may go hand in hand, but one may be more severe and occur more often than the other. Regardless of whether you may struggle with anxiety alone, or with depression, it is very important to receive help and learn what coping strategies work for you.

Yes, it can, it's totally normal to have one mental health issue and have the other. I'm sorry you're going through this

Yes. It may cause to feel that way. But remember you have time to relieve that feeling, just know you don’t need to worry so much just do you.
The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
