Often times when lecturing addicts in recovery, I ask for a show of hands of anyone who suffers from anxiety or depression. Just about all people raise their hands.
Rather than bore you with a written monologue, I scoured the Internet to find a really good anxiety video and depression video. They both provide key facts in an easy to understand fashion. Enjoy. Each video is about about 6 minutes long. Enjoy.

These two always comes together.A lot of people experiences anxiety and depression for so many reasons that sometimes leads to mental illness.Although these two is only normal in a person’s life, still, it’s up to us on how to overcome and get rid of it.
Thanks for the valuable information you’ve presented.I’ve learned a lot.
Very interesting post. And good choice of videos to go with it. Depression and anxiety is more common than most of us think – and it can play a big toll in our dating lives too. It can even prevent us from finding our true love – so thanks for this informative site.

Very informative video attachments on anxiety and depression. I can see a correlation between addition and these types of illnesses in where a person suffering might be “self-medicating” instead of seeking professional help.
One of the best one word answers I ever heard on why people use alcohol and drugs was “relief”.
In response to the ‘What Is Depression’ video, if you choose to go to a doctor first, you will be getting a prescription for some sort of an antidepressant. This should not be your first decision and you should try harder to get help before taking the pills. First, talk over your problem with someone you know and trust, if you’re not having luck with this you can talk to a professional therapist or search on-line for natural remedies related to your symptoms. Try these first before starting on an antidepressant script. You’ll be glad you did.
Anxiety and Depression seem to go hand in hand. I know when you have anxiety it often leads to depression. However if you have depression it usually does not lead to anxiety. This may seem a little odd at first, but if you think about it, it’s true.
