Hi everyone, I'm new here. I posted a pretty long post in the new members area already tonight, so I probably won't go into much detail about my history unless asked. I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and GAD in high school. I'm now 28, living on my own, and in an amazing relationship, but I don't think I've ever felt worse.

My depression and anxiety have gotten worse since I moved into my first apartment last August. I worry all the time about someone breaking in (especially when I'm at home), I worry about work, I worry about my relationship, I worry about my health. Everything. In the past few months my depression has progressively gotten worse. Today I cry over anything, my sleep is disturbed, I have no energy. I've been becoming more and more angry over this, because I don't want to wallow in my sadness all the time, so I fake like everything is OK. I can barely push myself to go to work every day and get everything done. It's even harder on busy days, because I work as a counselor and have to work to put my clients' problems ahead of my own while they're here.

I have family who are extremely supportive, and a boyfriend of three years who would do anything to make me feel better, but I don't know what anyone can do. I barely feel like I have the energy to do anything for myself. I just need a place where I don't feel bad/embarassed for letting my real thoughts and feelings out, where I can find some support from others who know what I'm going through.
