    Hello @Gavin_43 and welcome to the community, how are you? 

    This is a very supportive and enjoyable community to be a part of, I would recommend familiarising yourself with the layout of the forum and customising the notifications you receive. 

    The virtual coffee lounge is always a great place to start getting involved.

    Hey @Gavin_43 It's great to meet you and welcome to our community.

    How are you doing today?  Are you receiving support for your anxiety and depression?

    Many of our members have the same conditions and I'm sure they would be happy to talk to you about it.  You can find all their related discussion in our Mental health issues discussion board.

    Take care and I hope to talk to you again soon :)

    Thanks for your replies. I find having anxiety and depression really restricts me in everyday life.

    I'm sorry to hear that @Gavin_43. Anxiety and depression can definitely make everyday life much more difficult. Have you spoken to anyone, like a loved one or your GP, about how you've been feeling?
