joddi'm going to assume with your aforementioned diagnoses that you have already seen a psychiatrist or another licensed mental health professional. did they recommend a course of action for you? i suspect it would include some individual therapy, which is crucial to get through these troubled times you're currently having.
working at a mental health/substance abuse treatment facility, i urge you to stay away from prescription medication if at all possible (and 9 times out of 10, it is very possible). there are a plethora of other options you can explore before getting on medication: natural supplements, changing your diet, exercising, journaling, etc.
i've seen clients from 15-70+ years old who are dependent on anti-anxiety/anti-depression medication who exhibit no real effort to make actual therapeutic progress, and instead stay wrapped up in this blanket of pharmaceuticals that tend to just numb and hollow you out.
i'm assuming you're fairly young, which is the best time to start tackling these issues. sometimes, these things go undiagnosed/untreated and end up resulting in addictions or other unhealthy habits to cope with uncomfortable feelings (like anxiety).
i applaud your self-awareness and respect your effort to reach out for help on these forums. however, just as the above poster stated, there is only so much that can be done over a computer screen.
I cannot agree more with this. I was perscribed fairly strong antidepressants to deal with MDD (Major Depressive Disorder), which fucked with me beyond belief. The side effects are awful, and psychiatrists are far too quick to throw perscriptions at the problem. For me, it was more about learning to stop lingering on the shitty things in life, even if it means some major changes in your day-to-day, and just do what makes you happy.
