This question is like asking to choose betweeen 2 evils, and it reminds me of when i was in detox at the height of my withdrawl from opiates, and looking at the individuals that were in detox for cocaine. I specifically remember saying how i wished i was in for cocaine instead of oxy contin and heroin. Then as it would be one day i found myself in rehab for cocaine abuse. POint is... you should not b pondering whether or not anxiety is worse than depression, but how am i going to get to a place where im neither, cuz once your in a state of depression, or whether your going through an attack, nothing matters and you feel really shitty either way, one isn't any better.

I suffer from both but my anxiety is massive panic attacks. You really are not familiar with your illness are you, coz you can control your anxiety with a mix of medication, breathing techniques and meditation.
Depression is the pit of hell, a tunnel with no light that never ends and you become so sad, that suicide is your only way out. For more than ten years I plotted my death, tried to commit suicide twice and the mere thought of dying was my only joy in this world.
Now tell me: do you really want to be depressed, coz if I were you I'd count my blessings that all you have is a little fear that by the way you control.Health Question & Answer

Have you had depression it's not nice and neither is anxiety, both pretty much suck and some people have both, as anxiety and depression can kind off go hand in hand. If you have anxiety you can't be very happy which would mean you're probably depressed as well.
I've grown up with a mum who has Bipolar disorder or manic depression I've seen it all and none of it is better than the other.
Have you seen a doctor about this as there are medications you can take to help balance your mood. However some people choice not to take medication as they think it will make them worse. but if you get the right type and dosage then it can work well.Health Question & Answer

I suffer from both depression and anxiety. Anxiety is much easier to deal with and find coping strategies for. For example, I write lists of things to do, and have friends to accompany me.
