Hello there! Thank you for posting here 🌸

I can only imagine what your struggle with depression and anxiety must feel like as you mentioned you have been dealing with it for years. Therapy might be a good option at this point. And yes, they can be expensive as a lot of work goes on to dig deeper into the roots of the problem and form plans to work on a goal. But there are other options like online therapy where you do not have to visit the therapist's place. So it would save travel costs. Also, some chat-based therapy options are available online. You can check out the therapy options at 7 cups as well and see if it is something that works for you.

Till you can get help from a therapist, you can always reach out to the listeners here and talk to them about it. Group chat is another option to get some peer support. Words may not seem like a lot to solve problems but they can help reduce the burden of carrying all that baggage alone.

Take care and I hope you find the support you are looking for. 😊🌸
