After looking at some posts and taking the depression test, I get the impression that my symptoms aren't quite as severe or persistent as many others' here. But I've been struggling with some sort of anxiety/depression the past few months. I am usually fine, but will occasionally (a couple times a week) feel anxious or just sad and sometimes have crying spells. These really low episodes usually last an hour or two, though I might continue to feel down for a day or two. I've been in therapy for a couple of months, which has been helpful, but I'd like to connect with others who may be struggling with some of the same things I am. Feeling alone in my troubling thoughts is one of the hardest things for me to deal with. And I don't like sharing my feelings too much with people in my life because I don't want them to worry too much. I'm excited to have found this site and hope to gain from and give a lot to you all.
