Hi I am a anxiety sufferer. I have had depression since the age of 14. I recently realised that a lot of the depression came from the crushing anxiety I experience all day, everyday. This in turn causes self esteem issues and I also struggle with quite compulsive perfectionism.

I have had various treatments over the years. At the moment I am on sertraline and coming to the conclusion of a course of CBT.

Looking for any tips and support

Welcome! :)

How are you finding the medication & CBT? Are they helping?

Hi thanks for your posts.

HunniBee: CBT good. Medication okay but wondering if should be using something specifically for anxiety.
