Help Is it normal for you?

[Yuta32]

I'm not sure if it's weird, but ever since I started experiencing anxiety and depression, there are days when I manage to feel okay and think that I can overcome it when I'm with friends who can relax me or when I'm doing something that can distract me. However, when I'm not in those situations, everything changes dramatically. My anxiety rises, and I feel completely shut down. Mentally, I beat myself up, remembering all the bad things about myself, my self-esteem plummets, and I feel like there's no way out except suicide. I only manage to get out once a week, but the other days are hellish.

I find this too.
If I'm deeply absorbed in something like a good book, then my anxiety is low.
Yet when I am bored etc my mind begins to do it's shitfuckery with the anxiety thing.

También encuentro esto.
Si estoy profundamente absorto en algo como un buen libro, entonces mi ansiedad es baja.
Sin embargo, cuando estoy aburrido, etc., mi mente comienza a hacer cosas de mierda con la ansiedad.

Es difícil no poder tener un momento de calma solo, tener que distraerse constantemente para sentirse "bien". ¿No crees que eso es algo triste?
