oh yeah anxiety through the roof at the same time as depression. often it's tearfulness, rage and anxiety all at the same time while wanting to disappear/leave/die/whatever. paranoia that I have no support system or that my mood is a result of the actions of my loved ones (i.e. not treating me right, conspiring against me, etc.) and the crawling out of your skin feeling is a pretty accurate description too. feeling tired but unable to keep my eyes closed. basically feeling the opposite of whatever I "want" to feel at any given moment. it's like my brain is fighting me, doing whatever I don't want it to do right then.
