The best thing you can do is speak to a therapist. They'll be able to give uou tips and ideas to help minimize the anxieties control over you. In turn this will also help with the depression. We're always here to chat, but we aren't counsellors 😊❤

Talking is key. Remember to tell people this because you can’t do it on your own. Wheather the person you talk to is a therapist a doctor a family member a friend a teacher it’s up to you as long as you trust them

Have you ever thought about acquiring an emotional support Animal? In my case it' s a dog that I take everywhere. She gives me unconditional love and support everywhere I go. At home she knows my needs and takes care of me. She gives me kisses when I am anxious and cheers me up when I am depressed. Working with her has been a complete joy for me.

Talk to someone on your family like a parent or go professional and talk to a therapist. You shouldn’t have to fight this fight alone so I’d advise you to talk to someone you can trust and then if that doesn’t help then that’s when you go and talk to a professional. It’ll help to shut speak to a relative or a friend. There are a few simple steps you can take to overcome the bad days. Do things you love like watch a movie or listen to music, or even go for a walk to clear the head of any bad thoughts

I had the same problem but it’s slowly cleared. I been to therapy and took the CBT. It’s a self discipline monitoring act. Depression got worsted often because the mindset was trapped in a negative cycle and demotivated on activities for daily life. To stop it, it’s to walk opposite of your thoughts. The more you think is not possible to do the more you make it happen. I am experiencing the social anxiety but I put myself in place of being a listener. That affected to appearances, work, families, friends and relationships. It is all tangled together and worsen if it’s not treat it right.

Looking for someone to talk to can be really helpful! If it is hard you can start by talking with someone online (just being safe) and over time trying to talk in person eapecially while feeling anxious or depressed. Also it is important to find a reason why do you feel this way. Of course breathing excersise can be also increadibly helpful. Sometimes people try to distract themselves and it might be helpful for some people. Finding the best way to express yourself and feelings is the key. And also not forgeting who you actually are while looking for your ways to go! 😊

I suggest that you seek a therapist on 7 Cups or talk to a listener to help you overcome your anxiety and depression. And to talk to your friends and/or family about it. Talking really helps. The first step is always the hardest. But keeping secrets will probably eat you up inside. What I mean is that dealing with things alone will only make it worse. Even though it’s hard to talk to someone, maybe because you don’t know how they’ll react, it’s better to not go through with it alone. I hope that this helped you with your question!

I totally understand where you're coming from. I used to be in a dark place with anxiety and depression, and it will get better. If there anything specific causing this feeling? Is it several aspects of your life spiraling out of control? Or is this solely because of school, or a relationship? Is it because of your parents? Or is it because of yourself? I used to be the frequent cause of my depression with my pessimist thoughts and self hatred. But I can help you get out of this, or be able to control your anxiety/ depression better

anxiety can get worse when you don't prepare yourself when you are well. depression is serious and therapy and taking your medication can help but everyone is different so try to use what works for you. sometimes you need to give yourself praise not doubt. if depression and anxiety won't let you live your life then you may need more support from friends and family and professionals. you are not alone and talking it out or writing in a journal can help too. walking in nature and excercise can be fun by distracting your mind from all the details that make up your depression and anxiety.
