Well... Where to start, I'm 19 (20 in August), I know I have always been a worrier and a hypochondriac. But I am relatively new at this Anxiety & Depression game. I have been suffering with constant anxiety now for about a week, it was on the 2nd day when I went to see a doctor because I felt as though I was losing my mind. He put me on a months course of "Citalopram", I have been taking these for 5 days, and now I have bouts of Depression, which is quite bad. Just makes me feel like giving up, you know the usual can't be bothered with anything. I keep saying to myself "stop being stupid" and that the anti-depressants will start working soon... Anyway, I go from one extreme to the other, and sometimes I am fine :S. As in, I'll be on edge all the time, and kind of panicy with my Anxiety and then other times I can be at the lowest of the low. I can also kind of feel, in my body, that I am switching from anxiety to depression? But then other times, I'm completely fine and seem symptom free! (Until I start thinking about it again obviously) - I just keep trying to think positively, I try meditation and things like that, but it's just mental exhausting. Any other ideas? Or anyone know/feel what I'm going through, or even better, been through it, and seen the light at the other end. Anything will help. Thanks!
