Hello! I hope everyone is doing well!

[Matthew]

I just wanted to say hello to everybody and wish you well. I am 33 years old. I am a new member and have suffered from anxiety and depression since I was in university. I was initially put on Prozac and it made me feel so much better - I was at peace with myself, I had increased self confidence, enormous amounts of energy, decreased anxiety, I felt comfortable with myself...I felt almost euphoric...I felt normal. I got good grades at school and finished my degree in Business Administration with a minor in psychology. But over the years, after I had completed university, I noticed that some of the initial positive effects of the medication started to wear off - my energy level started to drop and my anxiety started to come back gradually. Now my anxiety is so severe and I feel moody most of the time. I am currently seeing a psychiatrist, psychologist, occupational therapist, vocational coach and social worker. Anyway, I don't want to take up too much of your time. Thanks for reading this!
