  I thought that I could push through without talking about it, I thought it would be okay to just let it pass and not confide in anyone. That's always the person I've been: quiet, hardworking, eager to help others, an attentive listener. Uncomplaining. But it's starting to become so much harder now.

  Hi all,I believe I have anxiety, but manage to cope by trying to distract myself with hobbies and tasks like exercise and reading, school and work.

  Hi all, this is my first post here.I've been suffering from depression and anxiety for about two years now, ever since I graduated from high school and entered college. It's been a highly stressful, confusing, and lonely time period for me, and I know a lot of college students struggle with similar feelings. A part of me believes that seeking professional help could be beneficial, but I fear how my family would view this, so I am generally afraid to bring it up to them. They seem to believe...
