For a little over 6 years now I have been suffering from bouts of Depression, sometimes really bad, other times I am just "sad" for no reason that I understand…My Anxiety is pretty bad sometimes, no panic attacks *i.e heart pumping wildly ,feeling like I am spinning out of control* But is getting worse with age to the point that I don’t want to do anything that could potentially "kill me" that pretty much covers everything outside the house, I hate talking to people and I have terrible insomnia that is only quelled by Sleeping pills nightly, otherwise I start panicking really bad about things I don’t even understand and because of it I wake every morning with a terrible headache and can’t ever seem to "wake up".
So my question is, is there anything I can do to self medicate without a prescription "drug" or therapist?
I exercise at least 4 times a week for at least 20 minutes a day, I can’t afford a therapist and even if I could I have a phobia of talking to people face to face, and I sure as heck can’t show weakness or emotion to them..
