I have an anxiety disorder and ocd and I know the causes of these things can also cause depression, sort of under the same umbrella I suppose.
I'm very rarely "down". I have good and bad days like everyone else and when my anxiety and ocd is flaring, these are very recognizable.
Over the past couple of weeks it's been mentioned to me (I've also noticed myself) that I've been very quiet and I've not been looking after my self very well at all. Don't really care what I look like, not eating properly. Im usually very social and love talking to people, making them laugh etc. but I just can't be arsed. I feel shattered all the time and I had a three hour crying fit last week which is really unusual. I just feel like im in a bit of a shell of myself?
I know im not clinically depressed and im still going to work every day and im easily distracted from it but I just wanted to see what people thought and maybe try and get some tips for preventing a dip.
Im on 20mg fluoxetine for the anxiety
