Hello,
It's my first time on here. I have had anxiety for about 12 years now (panic attacks). It calmed down a while ago but then had depression slip in and take over from time to time. I feel like I'm slipping back into a bout. My anxiety is escalating and my depressive symptoms are too - I've learned to identity the early symptoms so now I really could use peer support, which I hope this site can help with. It helps have empathic, compassionate listeners to talk with/to who get it.
