No-one here can diagnose your problems exactly. Anxiety and depression often go hand in hand. The treatments are similar for both. If you are hearing audible voices and have suicidal thoughts then you need a consultation with a psychiatrist. I suggest you go down that route first and get a proper diagnosis. If the help that you are being offered is supportive I would stick with it for the time being. I have had many diagnosis. Sometimes the doctors don't know what is going on. To say someone is 'crap' is being unfair. Stay with that diagnosis until you have seen a psychiatrist. EJ.
