In reply to anxiety leads me into depression, posted by just plain jane on September 22, 2004, at 20:15:30
Absolutely, anxiety is my most excruciating symptom and yet the Docs always want to push more anti-depressants on me which don't alleviate the anxiety to the extent that I feel normal.
Anxiety leads to terrifying days, an inability to concentrate on anything pleasurable, unstable interpersonal relationships, and inevitably I start dreading waking up in the morning because sleep is one of the few times I'm not irrationally angst filled. Inevitably that leads to depression, or at least that's how it seems to me..
Of course what do I know?? My Doctors know how I feel so much better than I do. *sigh* and because only benzodizepines or dexedrine alleviate my anxiety I'm never permitted enough medication to actually keep me stable.I share your frustration
