I've never really thought to think of my personal anxiety as depression. It's always seemed cut-and-dry; the symptoms I've had such as chest tightness, the nature of how I've usually been able to turn my focus onto hope and optimism after really bad episodes. 

Recently, I've just been dealing with this very spontaneous sadness, though. It could just be a situational reaction; I have a lot going on with grad school, a committed relationship and jobs I'm attempting to keep track of, including an early-morning bakery job I took on to get some more consistent money (but the donuts are a plus:)).

Anybody else struggle with really out-of-nowhere sadness like this, though? Do you think it's an anxiety byproduct? I've heard depression and anxiety are often intertwined with each other, but this is a new experience for me.
