Managing Anxiety

Probably experiencing both, since mom fell last week as we were just sharing a chore, and it's been a hard week.  The good news is I lost some weight just running around.  A long-term plan has to be reviewed, and facing my regrets of not providing the life I wish I could have to my only surviving parent.
 
I will say I was surprised at how resilient I was while I felt I was so fragile....

Members,

Along with the classic symptoms of depression (sadness, feelings of guilt, suicidal thoughts…) most people with depression also have significant anxiety symptoms. Although we tend to think of depression as being a condition of low arousal, slowing down or even hibernation, depression is often associated with high arousal, speeding up and agitation.

On the other hand, people with anxiety disorders commonly experience many of the symptoms associated with depression.

Are you experiencing both sets of symptoms? Are you having trouble managing your symptoms?
