"if you've had a troubled upbringing, without or unhappy in your job, or divorced it is said you are more prone to this, which is unsurprising. *Disclaimer* ""The above doesn't help anyone, but may bring on feelings of anxiety""."
Re: Anxiety/depression
"It's an awful, awful, affliction. Akin to wearing a clown mask 24/7. Like someone said below, one minute you're on top of the world, the next you could easily chuck yourself under a bus. You can end up loving life but hating yourself and questioning whether or not everyone would be better off without you. For me, the main issue is that some people cant afford to take time off work, which just increases the anxiety further. Just got to keep your head down, and hope the intrusive thoughts go away."

I have always been against taking Pills. It just masks the problems and from the ones ive taken before they made me worse
Re: Anxiety/depression
"Do people still suffer from depression if they don't drink too much, take drugs regularly, eat too much or don't exercise? Not knocking anyone, just genuinely interested in modern day views? If you don't do any of those things is it then considered depression needing medication or do doctors just dish out pills either way?"

Re: Anxiety/depression
"Depression is an absolute cսnt. You can wake up on top of the world, birds are singing, west ham are gonna win the league and Gold and Sullivan are the greatest owners we could wish for and then BANG.. little voice in your head says.. why the fuck are you so happy. The worst thing about depression I have found is that people turn their backs on you, making it far worse to try and drag yourself out of it. Personally I go through days absolutely hating the world, everyone and everything in it. Suicide ideation is a massive thing for me, makes me feel like there is a way out of feeling this way. Hope people out there suffering have managed to get help, supporting west ham don't help granted but having depression is one of the worst things mentally you can suffer from. Everyone loves you (so they say) you would be missed etc, but the thought of ending it and having the mood swings, bad thoughts etc all disappear at the drop of a hat is some times so tempting."

"Also agree with Mr anon about social media and all those ‘happy people’ know more than a few who in real life are moody, miserable and negative but look at there Facebook and you would think they didn’t have a care in the world and led a blissful happy life. Woman at work posts daily all these happy snaps, quotes about the beauty of everything, yet sits at her desk moaning and spitting poison at anyone she doesn’t like!!!!!"

Read Lost Connections. It's a fantastic book which will be pretty life changing if you suffer with depression. It's among the best books I've ever read.

Re: Anxiety/depression
I've had it quite badly over the last couple of years. Anything can trigger it. I have quite a stressful job which probably doesn't help. Like Sydney I keep very fit and active which I really think helps. I stay away from drugs as well. Coke in particular used to give me suicidal thoughts. I think it's always been there to be honest but my brother's suicide 2 years ago and my mother's death last year has probably brought it to a head. Most of the battle for me is recognising the signs early and trying to stay positive - find reasons to get past the anxiety.

"Good point mr anon in fact on here is the only place I would ever talk about stuff like this. The fact is if you’re a man then you’re on your own in life, people will say that’s untrue but it isn’t."
