Hello i totally agree with you. I have same symptoms. Also nothing that i get interested lasts long. I get a feeling of" cant be asked" . When watching telly nothing seems to interest me for very long. Anxious all the time. I feel my whole insides shaking. I hate this condition. I am 62 yesrs old and have been suffering for about 20 years. I get alot of peeps saying the same thing. Pull yourself up. Its just laziness. NONE OF THE ABOVE. Please someone find a solution to depression. But some of the symptoms also resemble chronic fatigue. Good luck.

Hello @daddylonglegs
I am sorry to hear of your symptoms. It sounds like they must limit your activities and your life. Have you ever been seen by a neurologist? While I'm not a medical professional, I have heard of these symptoms before in relation to neurological diagnoses. Over the past 20 years have you had other symptoms like balance problems, double vision, etc.?
Some of your symptoms, especially the one about nothing holding your interest for very long, can be related to an ADHD diagnosis or another neurological condition. I have found that many folks with Parkinson's have what is called "internal tremors." The PD disorder makes you feel "shaky" on the inside.
A good neurologist might be able to help you sort this out. I have known many people who have been treated for anxiety to later find out that it was a neurological problem. While your problem might be anxiety, it might be helpful to look at other possibilities.
I look forward to hearing from you again.
Teresa
