Depression and anxiety

Hi @Peacesoon we have some Self Help Guides that have some Q & A's. That might be what your listener was referring too. We also have wellness tests when you log into your member account under My Path. I hope that was helpful.

Take care and hope you feel better

Hi, I suffer from depression and stress, I've been on medication for about 6 months. The medication helps but my frame of mind is the main problem, I can wake up feeling fed up and nothing will cheer me up, other days I wake up feeling great but 1 little thing can suddenly change my mood even if I try to forget about it. It's like my mind has a switch and once it's switched to 'low mood' I can't change it 😔

There are 2 things that help for me...

1. Talking to other mental health sufferer's online. I don't talk about what is on my mind much because I don't want to bring other people down with me or I come across as moaning and I don't want anyone taking pity on me. This way, i can get everything off my mind and chat about how I'm feeling without friends and family being involved. Other sufferers understand what you are feeling and I seem to express myself more to a complete stranger rather than a loved one, maybe because I don't have to see them or speak to them again. I might offend or upset the people close to me, they could have a different opinion or give advice that I don't like and that would make me feel down.

2. Reading and learning about psychology. This really helps me, it has changed my way of thinking and I understand why people behave the way they do and how to deal with different personalities. Most of my stress and low moods are down to other people's actions or words. Heres a website that has been very helpful for me... Www.2knowmyself.com

Feeling better and stronger

So far I have learned not to let other people change my posotive mind.

Hi,

I am new here. I am diagnosed with anxiety and depression. I don't know what to say. I guess I just don't want to feel lost and lonely. Is anyone out there? Is it weird that I can't stop crying while typing now? I am so tired of feeling the way I feel. Just so tired.

Hi everyone. Not really sure how to start or what to say (I'm terrible with anything "social"). I'm having a particularly challenging day with my mood today and wanted to see if anyone had any advice regarding self image. I absolutely hate everything about me a song it's been so hard to live in my own skin. I can't afford to see a doctor for help (I've been trying to budget it in for over 5 years now). The fact I can't afford help just makes me hate myself more and I can't help but feel like I don't deserve help if I'm too worthless to be able to afford it.

Long story short, I'm fat, I'm ugly, I'm stupid, I'm boring, I don't have friends anymore and I feel like I don't belong anywhere.

How can I feel good about myself when I don't have any good qualities?

when everything's wrong: a cup of coffee

Hi I suffer from anxiety and I'm beginning to think I suffer from depression too, is there a test that can determine which one I have?

I'm suicidal and I have an urge to cut myself and I need help trying not to. actually i just wanna know if it's worth it or not?
