I've got anxiety and chronic depression big time. Oddly enough, it seems like most artists have it to a degree. Mine used to be horrendously bad, suicidal actually. My mental health was abysmal and I was frequently suffering from auditory and visual hallucinations. Everywhere there was people screaming bloody murder, hanging, peering over me with stabby objects. I started vomiting frequently from anxiety and also became anorexic. Obviously I've made improvements since then, since I'm doing well enough to function coherently online and irl.
My biggest advice to you is keep up with your treatment plan once you find things that help you. Lots of people lose motivation to take medication, talk to people, eat, etc. when they're struggling with mental health. Make a schedule if you have to. I personally made a list of things to do and tacked it to my door so I saw it each morning. You could also tack it above your bed.
Here's a list of things that have personally helped me, they're worth a try if any of them peak your interest:
• Seek professional help from a counselor, therapist, or psychiatrist. Not all of them are equal and you may have to try quite a few before you find one who fits your bill. I think I've had like, eight different ones?
•Take up a hobby that involves a lot of focus and tedious work. The arts are a good place to start. When my depression and anxiety hit me the hardest, I started creating meticulous cosplays to keep my mind and hands occupied.
•Medication. If your current medication isn't working for you, ask your doctor if there are others you can try. Make sure you note any side effects you experience and tell your doctor so they can help you find the best solution. Personally, I found most prescription anti-depressants and anti-anxieties did not help me as much as they harmed me. I've since started taking CBD and legal amounts of THC, which I find helps not only my mental health but also my physical health since I have physical disabilities. Some people also have success with Aromatherapy.
•Continue talking to people about the issues you're facing. There are many people out there (as you can see) who experience the same things and are more than willing to help. Don't be afraid to voice your concerns. Anxiety is a very real thing that can impact you negatively without seeking treatment.
•This one definitely isn't for everyone, but if you are an animal person, consider having your doctor (not an online agency) write you a prescription letter for an emotional support animal. Personally, when I'm anxious and having a total panic attack I'm usually too shook to talk to other human beings, so having an animal to confide in helps tremendously.
•Listen to music. Find a type of music that makes you feel happy, relaxed, and uplifted. Keep a music player or a phone nearby with some good songs so that when you feel anxiety coming on, you can put on relaxing music.
I think you're taking the right step by reaching out. I hope at least one of us is able to offer you some good ideas that help you out.
