• If you are experiencing a general feeling
  of negativity that you are easily saddened,
  angered, hopeless, despaired, and irritated for
  the least provocative reason or even none at all,
  then you might have depression. On the other
  hand, if you feel anxiety, panic, worry, or fear
  in circumstances which normally you shouldn't be
  feeling those emotions then you might have
  anxiety.

• Anxiety may cause depression and depression
  may also cause anxiety disorders such as panic
  attacks, social phobia, obsessive-compulsive
  disorder, and others. Depression and anxiety are
  not life-threatening. However, when combined
  together and left untreated, they have the
  potential to cause an extremely unhealthy mental
  state primarily consisting of rapid mood swings.

• In fact, according to clinical studies,
  compared to when they individually occur, the
  combination of depression and anxiety are
  deadlier as they create more severe symptoms,
  which take longer to resolve and they lead to
  more cases of suicide.

• The good thing is that both depression and
  anxiety can be treated. Treating depression and
  anxiety is a long process, which length depends
  on the response of the patient. Sleep Anxiety
  Treatment is one of the ways through which you
  can treat depression. Once you suspect you have
  depression and anxiety, the best course of action
  is to seek the help of a doctor. The worst thing
  you can do is deciding to self-medicate because
  it may lead to addiction to substances. Always
  remember that depression and anxiety are mental
  illnesses that can be best alleviated with the
  expertise of a doctor.

Psychotherapy

• This is one of the front-line methods in
  treating depression and anxiety. One of the most
  common forms of therapy is cognitive therapy such
  as engaging in positive self-talk and shooing
  away negative thoughts. If the root cause of your
  depression and anxiety is known, which is mostly
  not the case, you may also be exposed to such a
  situation and be allowed to confront and overcome
  your anxiousness through behavioral therapy.
  Cognitive and behavioral therapies may also be
  combined for a more effective therapy called
  cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Medications

• The use of medication is often combined with
  therapy. Among the most common medications for
  treating depression and anxiety is the use of
  benzodiazepines which include Xanax, Prozac,
  Klonopin, and Ativan. If your doctor prescribed
  you medication, strictly follow the dosage and
  repetition requirements because, in cases of over
  dosage, they may lead to tolerance, dependence,
  and substance abuse.
