Question: Am i going crazy!?!?!? or am i just depressed!? or anxious!?

Answers:
Anxiety and depression often go hand in hand!. In my case, I began suffering from panic attacks and anxiety disorder and struggled later on with depression as well; this was due partly to the fact I did not respond well to the anti-anxiety (also used for depression) medication my doctor originally prescribed me, and aggravated by my over-thinking and self-analyzing that was related to my anxiety!.

I spent weeks agonizing over the state of my mental health; I was convinced that there was something either physically or mentally seriously wrong with me, and began to doubt my strength which led to more depression and self doubt!. It's all connected in one big circle!.

I highly suggest seeking out professional help in the form of counseling!. I find some people have a negative attitude toward counseling or feel embarrassed going to counseling, but it has done wonders for me!. I go to a therapist, but if you want to be assurred of your sanity for peace of mind you can always go to a psychologist for counseling as well!. I've learned to deal with my anxiety and depression without medication (though I am in no way against the treatment of those conditions with medication)!. Counseling also helps you to understand how you contribute to your own depression and anxiety!. Overall, it's a great idea to go!. It's also a 'no comittment' situation!. You can go once and never go again if you don't want to!.

Try looking into counseling services over the internet in your area!. Or call your regular doctor and ask for a recommended practice, that's what I did!. If you are concerned about the cost or are without health insurance, I know that my county health services offer mental health care at free or reduced charge!.

Best of luck, and know that there are more people than you realize who go through the exact same thing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you spend way too much time thinking this can be exhausting!. You might be feeling depressed because you realize you have a hard time connecting to people on a daily basis!. You probably are pretty lonely as well!.
It is quite reasonable for you to feel depressed!.
You might want to start seeing a therapist to work on these feelings so you can make choices to do things differently!.
