Anxiety gone mad....

I seem to be hyper anxious - i don't get panic attacks but worry about everything - I have whole days where I feel really consumed by anxiety. I often lay awake for a few hours in the night with things whirling round and round. Often during the day I have knot in my stomach and can be quite tearful. Is this depression? Does anyone else suffer like this?

it might be depression.. might be just anxiety.. might be both!

either way I'd definitely see your GP. medication can help, but i'd imagine some sort of therapy or counselling would be even better.
it's definitely worth a try on anti-depressants, many are used especially for anxiety
