Anxiety is what triggers my depression, actually. It goes like this: I'll get anxious about something going on in my life, have intrusive thoughts that cause me to obsess over the situation for weeks, then crash. Hard. It's a terrible cycle, and one that I've been determined to learn how to break. Really, it's about figuring out how to stop the cycle before it can get truly started.

It's a huge part of my depression. It shows up in the most random moments, so I never know what triggers it. I usually have to look at pictures of my mom, or blast some music to calm down.

Anxiety is a massive part of my depression and when it shows up the most is when I'm in a new situation i.e. travelling to a new place. I deal with it by going to my calm place in my head until I feel better

I have social anxiety . I tend to avoid big crowds. One on one is all I can do

It is a big part, but there is no specific times it appears for me. It's just random and often times makes no sense why.
