re: Have You Ever Dealt With Stress to the Point it Affected You Physically?

Literally two or three days before all my stuff started I had a moment where I was standing in my backyard cleaning up after an evening of playing with my kids thinking I had everything I had ever wanted. I got choked up for a moment with how great things were and how blessed I felt.

So I don't know where this all came from.

I exercise regularly but am certainly not overtraining.

I've seen a doc a couple of times but I think I am going to go back and see if Low testosterone could be an issue.

Is it pretty normal for anxiety to lead to depression? I feel like 3-4 days ago my anxiety went away but it was replaced by depression feelings which has been even worse and now I'm anxious about being depressed forever. Basically an endless cycle of suck. Everybody keeps telling me to get on meds to break the cycle but I don't even know if that's how it works...

TLDR I know but it helps to vent.
