hi everyone...im nikki..34..been suffering with depression & anxiety 4 about 10 yrs...but last 6 months anxiety getting a lot worse..!!
1st time here..so a bit nervous...don't have many people to talk too...as i tend to keep things to myself...so thought it mite be easier to talk 2 people who don't no me...and who are going thru something similar!!?
trying different medication...but its only made me worse so far!! also started cbt..but only had 1 appointment so far...!!..fingers crossed..!!
was supposed 2 start new job this morning..but didn't turn up..cos i stressed myself out so much!!! feeling very down about it..!! would love 2 talk to anyone going thru anything similar?? x

Welcome. You will find that people here are willing to help or listen. Just choose your forum and ask away. There are alot of great people here who really have some life experience with this. You can even just say what you feel about what is going on. You dont get judged here. Take care and hope to talk soon.

Hi Nikki
Ive signed up today too, simular picture to you really. I am currently trying to attack from all angles Ive just ordered lots of books from the library about food and mood.
Dont be down on yourself about your job, the best thing is not to beat yourself up about stuff.

Hi Nikki, it is not the end of the world that you didnt turn up for your new job today so don't beat yourself up about it. However, i recently started a new job and i was so tempted not to turn up myself. I did though (and it was v hard). I actually am glad i went and every day gets easier. (honest) Don't get me wrong, i had a panic attack one day and had to ask to go home and then i had two days off, and then i wsnt going to go back. It hasnt been easy but i have to be honest i am lovin it. Would you be able to phone your employer, explain that you were quite ill (with flu or sumthing) and slept the whole day (or even tell the truth if you can). If not, then you are obviously not ready emotionally to be working again and you should just give the idea up for a bit until you are feeling a bit stronger. Theres nothing wrong with this, so do not crucify yourself. Take each day as it comes and look after y'self!!!
