Question:
Why is it that one week I can be happy and ok, and the next I'm feeling tearful and really down?
It's just I read about depression and anxiety etc and I really don't know. One week things are ok but then I'm not, then sometimes I'm down for a few weeks. I've tried to talk to someone but it didn't help - could there be something that I need to talk about to get rid of my anxiety and paranoia over stupid little things, because my confidence isn't too great which makes it kinda hard. But the more I ignore it the worse I get. What should I do, or is it just something I'll have to live with?
Answers:
You should definitely speak with someone. I had these same symptoms for years and when I finally realized that I was becoming suicidal I sought help. Now with the help of 3 medications, one of then taken only as I need it my life is much better. Don't get me wrong....I still have some spells every now and then but life is much more bearable. The first step is acknowledging that there is a problem....which you have already done! :)
