Depression/Anxiety...Rock Bottom.?!


Question: Depression/Anxiety...Rock Bottom..?
I havn't had a hard life. Its just I've never thought a lot of myself, I was picked on ocassionally and just thought I was different or not as good as everyone else. When I was young I had a bad case of OCD (obsessive complusive disorder) I have out grown the worst of it. Now in my teen years I find myself becoming depressed and filled with anxiety. I have a really good guy as my bf who i spend a lot of time with and hardly feel upset around him. but i need to get a life outside from him becuz when he can't be here for me i get bad thoughts or become very angry cuz im not active. At night i usually start to cry about sumthin dumb and then have anxiety attacks. I do band/colorguard and choir but thats it becuz I'm not comfortable with myself & I'm afraid I'm gunna look dumb but I know i need to get out there and do stuff. My friends don't rly help much.when i excecise I feel dumb but after i do it i feel good. I jus can't get motivated to make myself active or healthy, I keep tellin myself I'm happy but I'm not. I took medication for my anxiety and i think it jus worsened everything. I FINALLY got off of it which is hard and saw a counselor but i felt like she was judging me and i hated it so i only went 3 times. I know I need to talk to my parents but ughh.. WHAT CAN I DO.?.?!.?! & plz I'm not looking for rude remarks, just a lil advice. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Ok I have all the same problems. Yea u r a bit depressed. Don't worry millions of americans go thru this each year. You can overcome this and u r not alone. also the anxeity can not hurt u. But it is scary. Anxeity and depression go hand in hand. They will feed off each other. Anxeity is the brains way of releasing emotions. also once u begin to fear the fear of anxeity which would be panic attacks anxeity devolps into anxeity disorder. The brain has became trained with the negative thoughts that bring on this fear. Its hard to retrain your brain but there's lots of ways to do it. also be careful leaning on your boyfriend for all comfort. He is becoming your saftey net. Unlike a house that never moves if he goes away or anything you will start to suffer from seperation anxeity. Where u panic until he is back around you again. I know u tried neds that made u feel worse and so have I. But there is the right one out there for u and u need to keep trying till u find it. also counsler is the most important thing u can have. Although u didn't like the other one u can choose a new one. Find one u like. They have the knowledge to help u with these thing. also email me. I can help u with overcoming these problems. They are just problems. Every problem has a solution. God Bless. Health Question & Answer

I know its not really an answer and I am sorry. I just wanted to write something to you. I dunno why. Just do.

I am no expert but maybe you could find a better counselor.? One who won't judge you.? Just remember... you tell them all your problems and when you are done with the course, you need never see them again...

I won't suggest tablets cos I have heard its a major achievement to get off them! Well done!

I think it would help if you found something you really enjoyed. If it is something outside of school then maybe you could meet new people and make new friends.? Then you could have someone to chat to other then your boyfriend. Even if you don't rely on them its nice to have people to be normal around... for me at least :)

Finally I would suggest talking to your parents. I know its the ultimate decision as I have issues too which I am hiding from them. And i don't want be a hypocrite but if i had the courage or if i thought I needed help I would go to them. I hope you feel you can talk to them. If they are decent parents they will support you and not judge you.

I hope I helped even though I have never been through this before. And i hope you find what you are looking for (cheesy huh.?).

Good luck! You don't deserve to feel like this. :)Health Question & Answer

I know how it feels to have your safe person and feel upset when not around them. I feel this way when my husband goes to work or out or something. To me it sounds like you have tried everything. BUT what you need to do is talk to your doctor and try a different medication it took me a long time to find the right one for me and when I did finally find it I had to get off of it due to being pregnant once you get on the medication you can truly work on your anxiety as you will be more relaxed. I wish you all the best.Health Question & Answer
