I Have Severe Depression and Anxiety

This is very challenging for me to admit this because for one I'm a guy & also because I'm older. I've had depression & anxiety for years. It's only been this challenging once before which at that time I had checked myself into a psychiatric hospital which is where I met a person that gave me hope. This time I don't have the ability to check myself into a hospital. Therefore I'm trying anything I can think of to find hope again which is why I'm on here posting this. I honestly don't know anymore. I even started working early because I couldn't figure out when I should start so I wouldn't be late. But also because I got bored at home & without interest in any hobbies or having anyone I'm comfortable talking with that was when I just decided to go to work to give me something to do. I don't know how I'm going to get thru this. Not this time. Please dear god help me. Please. :-(

I've also had depression and anxiety for years, and hope is honestly the last thing I can count on. Sometimes there just isn't a cure. The best thing you can do to give yourself a fighting chance is to trick your brain into getting less unbalanced.

Get some sunlight to raise your dopamine levels or exercise in order to generate endorphins. Maybe start writing or listening to music to lower any stress that can be worsening your problems. They're by no means a solution. They're bandaids on a gaping wound. But maybe, just maybe, they can stop the bleeding long enough for you to get yourself on a path to wellness
