This might sound odd but does everyone know there is a depression forum/community on here too? Just for those who are not as tech saavy. You click on 'Communities' in the top green bar then select 'Browse other communities' from the drop down menu, You can then browse all the communities and join all the relevant ones for you, or select 'D' and choose Depression (Action on Depression). I only mention this as often anxiety and depression come hand in hand, but blogs and questions may be more relevant in one than the other - thats only what i find for me anyway.

Hope everyone is ok xx

Hi sasays
Just been & had a look , I didnt no that was on here
I dont think its the place for me , even though i suffer with a few of the subjects on there , its a bit like "googling " there is temptation for me to press on other things
If you have health anxiety like me & believe you have something , looking on there could make me worse , so think I will pass lol
Its good though if you dont have health anxiety , maybe , but if you do , i would not go on

Oh, blimey, of course, i do realise there are alot of health anxiety sufferers on the axiety community and it sounds truly awful so i don't blame you by wanting to avoid anything that may have a negative impact on you, thats the opposite fo what were here for after all!

'I have severe depression and anxiety' but feel sometimes my thoughts are more prudent in the depression community, its just it can be a little quiet in there... perhaps were all just staring at the screen not saying much of anything! Been there!

Just wanted to let people know there is more support out there/on here available. I would think most people have found the Anxiety community as its run by AnxietyUK but the other ones are useful too.

Hope you're doing okay whywhy xx
