Good morning - I'm sorry that your anxiety is finding it's way back in. It's sounds like you've been under quite a bit of stress though so not unusual. Not sleeping just makes everything worse. I suffer from insomnia from my depression, too. How do you feel about your doctor's suggestion?

I will go through with it...I have taken medication before and it helped me, however i had been ok and be able to cope without it, but I have to accept that it's been really bad this week

Hi Cln and welcome back!

I am really sorry to hear that you have hit a rough spot currently.:(

The good news is that with some help, you can certainly expect to get back to that good place you were at until recent events rocked the boat for you.

I hope that you and your doctor come up with a good plan together at your appointment.

I am also posting the two free therapy sites we endorse here below. They are really geared nicely toward effective and easily navigated help for depression and anxiety issues.

Hi Cin

Sorry to hear your anxiety has returned that in it's self can be very depressing and the two seem to run side by side.

Double up on your self help and a visit to the doctor re medication is a good idea.

Keep us posted.
