yes, it can.. anxiety can cause you to isolate yourself from the world which could cause you to feel lonely and upset which can lead to depression.

Absolutely. Anxiety brings on worry and stress, causing you to over analyze a lot of situations causing more stress. It can become a self defeating behavior that grows over time.

Maybe, but it isn't a symptom of anxiety and anxiety isn't a symptom of depression. They aren't linked in anyway, but are commonly diagnosed together.

anxiety can cause you to step out of social situations and cause you to become incredibly reclusive and almost not want to be around your friends so I'd say in a lot of circumstances it can confuse you and bring you down, so I believe you can become depressed from anxiety

Unfortunately anxiety commonly leads to depression as the two coincide hand in hand. The negative feelings that anxiety can cause to arise generally leads to depression. Being diagnosed with an anxiety disorder is actually a large predictor that you may develop depression at one point, unless it is managed correctly. Apparently, both anxiety and depression are linked to an imbalance of same chemicals in the brain - so it may be scientifically proven also.

Yes, anxiety can cause an enormous amount of stress that can make you feel weighed down and depressed.
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?
