NOTE: Yes. Of course. Both are terrible. Neither one should be downplayed and its not a suffering competition. Im just asking which do you personally have an easier time dealing with.

For me its depression. Not giving a shit about anything and just laying there is much more of a relief than never being able to sleep or relax or slow my brain down when I have anxiety. I fucking hate that so much. Depression makes all my happy go away but it also makes all my stress go away, its just nothing.

I only have anxiety but it seems more manageable than the depression some of my friends get. They stop being social when it's bad.

I've been unemployed for 24 years because of how much I hate my severe social anxiety. It's so much easier to just not have a normal life.

I find anxiety better to cope with, I can still enjoy things even if I have random panic attacks at least.

On the other hand, the numbness of depression was just a terrible experience for me, being unable to feel my emotions is more frightening to me than them just running wild. That and whilst anxiety has made me feel like I'm gonna die, depression makes me fixate on it more and combined with dissociation it's a whole other monster. At least if I'm just anxious, I feel like me and not some doll on a stage waiting for the curtain to lift again.

ill usually have to deal with both at once. Its like numbness and a lack of desire to move from the depression alongside a constant feeling that something is deeply wrong.

Its a horrible mixture and i wouldnt wish it on anyone

This,

I often get jokey when I am upset to try and lift my own spirit, but sadly my jokes usually suck.

I get so boring when im like this. Its hard to talk to your friends when outside of work all you can do is sit in bed and stare at the ceiling.

My only interaction with others is on here. So the not being face to face thing helps.
