Welcome to the site. Yes people her will understand. I have suffered from depression my whole life but never anxiety. The about five year ago anxiety entered the picture big time. I have no idea why. Could be life circumstances or just the progression of the disease. I take meds for both but meds are only part of the answer. Therapy and the right support might be very valuable in getting you on a path to realize your potential and be happy and not afraid. For me it has been a long battle and one I still fight.
