I can be both. Anxiety and depression are my battles. I'm never really sure if it starts out as anxiety and then I run my brain down to depression. Or if it's reversed. And both together - I believe in many cases they both go hand in hand. I went thru a really rough period a couple months back (and could not pull myself out of it) - we changed my medication a bit so I could get through - the anxiety was kicking my butt. That helped me - I still tackle the same challenges but I can take care of them without that dread in the pit of my stomach
