Aust24

Hello, I am a 24 year old guy and i suffering from depression, anxiety,and severe nervousness. I also have poor concentration and lack of mental focus. I was diagnosed with these conditions a year ago after i lost my job, but i've had these problems most of my life.

I have not worked since then, i feel like my life is falling apart. All i do all day is sleep and watch tv, i have gained weight and l feel so ashamed and disgusted with myself.
I just cant get myself motivated to do anything, i live my life in fear. I want a job badly but am afraid ill lose it as quickly as i get it. I am really feeling the pressure to get my life together from my girlfriend cause we dont have alot of money but i just feel like i cant dig my way out of this.
I dont even have a drivers licence because i have failed test after test because my anxiety causes me to freak out when i get into the car.
I have no life! no job,no drivers licence,im fat,no confidence, self esteem, NOTHING!!!

I was on medication for 6 months, they seemed to help, but hated the side effects. Since then ive tried natural alternatives, but havent been on them long enough to feel any benefits because of the price.
Here in australia meds are really cheap if you are unemployed but natural supplements are very expensive.
I am thinking of going back on meds because i am at my lowest point and i dont know what else i can do to get myself together.
