Without knowing more of your story, it;s hard to understand why this might be happening. One tip I can give you is start a journal. Write your symptoms, such as when you feel anxious or depressed, even perhaps how you sleep as well. Your sleep patterns are often key as to what might be going on. Write down when these symptoms started, as this can also be important. Did you have any particular childhood trauma's, such as bullying, abuse, sexual abuse? Are you experiencing a lot of stress in your life, and how do you react to stress? Has that response changed at all?

If there is a significant amount of time between now and the time you are able to seek help, write all this down in a journal. This will help you assess things, and even help your therapist formulate a treatment sooner for you.
