falling away

Hey, I've just discovered this place and I am so glad there is somewhere to spill the beans about how I feel, because at this moment I desperately need to.

Presently, everything is on the turn of the worse, with switching anti-depressants because of certain side-effects affecting my life, but I'm not sure what is worse, being on a new AD that makes me more anxious and how I used to feel, or not feeling anxious and sleepy. Doctors are pushing me to change AD to come off medication altogether because they is a time constraint on how long they would like you to be on AD's they say. I made it clear that really I am not ready but the doctor gave his orders and I followed.

The pressure of everything in life + anxiety is just bogging me down, course work from uni, commitments at my job, driving lessons, maintaining everything. I just feel so worthless that I want to just throw it all away and hide in a corner.

I just don't know what to do with myself.
