Long term

Hi, I have had depression and anxiety must if my life, I am 40, will i ever be able to cure it indefinitely and lead a life like others.

Hi Tilania, I'm sorry you've been suffering for so long.  I can't guarantee you an indefinate cure, but I can offer hope.  As a fellow sufferer of 30 odd years, I am at the moment, this weekend, enjoying my life.  How long will this last? Who knows.  It's a matter of making the most of what we have, at that time.  Things can change, if you want it, make the effort, and have the right support to guide you.  NEVER give up on hope!  I wish you all the best.  xxxx

Thankyou for your post, and excuse my spelling, I just wonder if there will ever be a life without it, you make a lot of sense, and I try to be a positions person most of the time, gets hard though, :-)

Hi hun, I'm very similar to you. I'm also 40 and have suffered most of my life. Its a very hard question to answer, for me I have had to just accept it as part of my life. I think with acceptance comes peace and I certainly think this has helped. I also push myself alot to do things that I don't feel like doing and i get a huge sense of achievement from this. I don't know if I will ever be cured, I hope one day I am. But instead of fighting against it now I accept xx

There will always be anxieties in everybody only you can control it by taking medication and learning skills to deal with the anxieties and depression because i have anxieties and depression and i am taking meds and i am learning ways to control my anxieties
