So, is anxiety some sort of cover up for depression? I tend to feel anxious a lot - I thought it was normal, and how everyone feels, but I'm learning in therapy that it's so NOT normal. Which sucks. So, I took a xanax today - I don't have a prescription (yet?) - a friend gave it to me. And I started to feel REALLY depressed. I don't know if I've ever felt depressed. I'm in therapy to try to learn to feel, actually. Pretty much my only feelings are "anxious" and "fine". I just feel kind of teary and sad. Which makes me wonder....when my anxiety is gone, is that what will be there??
