Depressive anxiety

Depressive anxiety is when someone feels really sad and really worried all the time. It's like having a big dark cloud over your head that doesn't go away. It's really hard for people with depressive anxiety to feel happy or relaxed because they're always thinking about bad things that might happen.

Imagine you're going to a really big test at school, and you're really worried about failing. You might feel nervous and upset, but once the test is over, you feel better because you know what you did. But people with depressive anxiety feel like that all the time, even when there's no test or reason to be so worried.

People with depressive anxiety might also have trouble concentrating or sleeping well. Sometimes they might feel like they don't want to be around other people or do things they used to enjoy. They might cry a lot or feel like they're not worth anything.

But it's important to remember that it's not their fault they feel this way. It's like having a cold or a fever, but in their brain instead of their body. Just like when you're sick, it's okay to ask for help or talk to someone about how you're feeling. There's lots of things that can help, like going for a walk, talking to a friend, or seeing a doctor.
