having depression coupled with social anxiety may be the worst combination of mental illnesses on the planet because you get anxiety over telling people about your depression and you get depressed about telling people about your anxiety, so you dont tell anyone to try to make yourself feel better.
then all your thoughts just start festering like rot left in a garbage bag until there’s nothing left but depression,anxiety, and the hope that you’ll die before you turn into a complete husk.

welp. guess i’m just a volatile mix then…the worst part is people who think that your condition can be fixed like the click of a button…if only :/
i have both these. the way i have overcame them was thru recreational drugs. for a long time. but then that stopped working. so i stopped the drugs.
my solution… is not to be alone. if i was, i couldnt even comment on this post. i would be too deep inside myself to even see out.
so now im trying to work out how to live at 40 without a crutch ive had for 25 or so years. ouch. it hurts. but im trying. i hope u find a way thru it.
i have general anxiety and depression, which isnt exactly the same as social anxiety, but believe me, i feel your pain. its awful because your afraid of doing things about your illness which only makes it worse and then you feel crappier and then you panic and so on. at least thats how it is for me. but i just want you to know your not alone and ill be here going through it with you
