I got anxiety and depression 9months ago. I wish Sharing my experiences can help me relieve a bit.
Here is my story.
I grown up in a family of four. Not wealthy not poor.
My sister has autism ( that affect IQ)
I have been sharing a room with her since I was kid.
( It’s pretty awful sometimes finding my things go missing and weird stuffs keep happening)
When I was little I even got bullied because my sister’s illness.
After that I never mention my sister to anyone (even best friends and boyfriend)
I m really scared of what people might think of me after they know about my sister.
Asking why I haven’t move out? the reason is I’m living in a city with the world highest property price and
These years my city econ went really bad I ve been changing jobs frequently.
so… 9 months ago
I got serious insomnia (I tried not sleeping for a week) finally found out it’s depression and anxiety.
I rest for months working as part time designer that justs need me to work from home.
After I got better , I found myself a new job as receptionist but unlucky the insomnia came again. it’s killing me physically and mentally.
I feel hopeless. I was saving money to leave.
I hope writing all these out can help me get rid of the terrible feelings.
Thanks for reading all these. If anyone facing similar problems (work/family/anything) please share.
(At least they can distract me)

Have you seen a doctor about these issues?
Yes. I went to the therapist. Had 2months treatment It didn’t help much.
The medicine is terrible. I feel dizzy after taking them. ( it’s mainly Xanax, citalopram , Wellbutrin)
The fee is costly…
Go see another doctor and skip the therapist for now.
I did went to like three or four (they gave me zolpidem type of sleeping pills , very addictive body get used to it after times. Then it will be not longer working)
Do u have insomnia? Like a serious one?
No I don't. But I know exercise helps me sleep better.
I’m currently using lavender oil. It’s calming.
Also pearl powder to stop heart races (it’s weird but it works)
Sometimes when I panic , my heart bounce and I couldn’t breath. (Usually people with anxiety use Xanax to solve it but it’s very very addictive )
Now Just the sleep part…. If this one solved everything solved..😵
