Hi,

I'm new here and really unsure how to navigate these discussions, please be patient with me!

I have had high functioning anxiety for most of my life with depression "episodes" throughout. I'm currently experiencing another one of these and struggling differently to before, mostly I think because I am a parent and I have to keep going.

Hey @Nessie21  welcome to the forums!
I'm Jynx, one of the moderators, just stopping in to say hello and also offer a bit of support. It can be scary when you have a MH flair up that feels different or unfamiliar, because suddenly you may be unsure of what coping tools to use, or if there's something going on within that is currently outside your awareness.
You've taken a positive step by reaching out in this space, and you're always welcome to have a look around and join into other threads if you like. It's a wondrous community and I hope you find some helpful support here
