I'm still at the beginning stages of trying to help myself from depression and my anxiety...I don't have anyone that I feel like I can talk to about it yet nor do I think I have the courage to. When I had depression and anxiety back in high school, I always kept a mask on and bottled everything up inside. I never bothered myself to try and seek help back then. I wish I could talk to my parents about it but I feel like they would not understand me or take me seriously and I don't feel like I'm ready for that yet...to confess my problems to friends and family members...I want to go see a psychiatrist. I hope I can bring myself to do it and not end up backing out.
