I am sorry to hear what you are going through. Well first off there are many people who understand what you are going through. It is much more common than you would think.
I am also pretty young (24 almost) and have been dealing with it for about a year. But I think I have always had it just didnt know or understand. My childhood was pretty rough but in a way it was more of a blessing than a curse. I know now what not to do or how not to act. Once you understand what anxiety is, it makes it much easier to overcome.
If you need anything or advice let me know.
As far as you being tired. It is very understandable. Anxiety takes up a lot of energy and time. Are you saying that anxiety and depression are making your life harder or are there other circumstances?
