Hi guys,

I’ve been battling depression and anxiety for as long as I can remember and it’s just so exhausting. I don’t want to go to my parents and burden them with this because they are too good and would worry way too much. They don’t deserve that. 

My career is extremely demanding but honestly it’s the only thing keeping me going. Not sure what I’d do without it. 

I’ve lost all interest in any hobbies I’ve ever had in my entire life. Friends and family know something is off but it’s just been that way for so long. I hate to say it but I’m a complete shell of who I used to be. 

I love my friends and family so much so I’d never do anything to hurt them, but every single day is getting so much more difficult than the last. I’m not looking for any sympathy or anything but I’ve needed to get this off my chest for about 10 years or so. 

Thanks
