44 year old female from Brisbane suffers health anxiety, depression, panic attacks. Looking for genuine people to talk too who may suffer same for support etc. I believe that healing can happen the more support you have!

hopelessness @fluffylight
That's what's coming up.
Utter despair.
And not only is it paralysing, but I'm growing so ashamed of it...
Like, I'm so defective that I can't even tend to the defects...

Hi @New23
Welcome to the Sane forums.
I suffer from anxiety and depression amongst some other things too.
I hope you find this a supportive place and it is the support you are looking for.
Do you see any professional supports too?
Would love to know a bit more about you.

I can't go out to enjoy it - that's saddening.
