I don't think that anyone really understands why anxiety and depression suddenly spring out of nowhere.
Doctors, psychiatrist and psychologists are there to help but often they find themselves out of their depth, and just rely on some new pill or other to try and relieve the anxiety. They are however all we really have to try and get to grips and to beat this.
It does however need every sufferer not to give in, and to keep fighting in the hope that one day the dark clouds floating above us will lift and we can at last see the sunshine coming through.
We all hate having depression, of course we do. Some days are better than others, but it is a roller coaster. I have battled depression for about 30 years, with all its ups and downs. We have to battle and never let depression win Most of us here have felt like you. None of us understand it.
Being depressed affects everyone differently. But everyone has their own dark, suffocating place that they fall into and feel they are never going to get out of again. Even the best GP's and Psychiatrists don't really understand it. They see your outer self not what is going on in the inside. Do try your doctor and explain how your depression makes you feel. He could then refer you to a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists aren't what they were in the 70's and 80's. My one was a very cool guy, probably no more that 40 and we chatted about my depression and lots of other things as well. I had six sessions with him and I felt much better, The dark cloud got lighter and lighter and eventually disappeared. There is no magic wand to clear depression you have to make an effort to get better and show a determination to want to and your doctor in turn will show his determination to help you.
