How do you deal with them? Do you take drugs? Cognitive behavioral therapy? Etc.

I have seasonal affective disorder. I do not take meds. I use light therapy. But there is nothing wrong with taking meds if that works for you.

I have had severe anxiety and depression for over a decade. Didn't take any medication until two years ago.

This is because for the past two years I've been suffering from severe PTSD. I am also receiving cognitive behavioural therapy.

Depression. No medicines yet!

Long walks, hiking and cold showers have helped me a lot. Also my 5 year old son who keeps me on my toes all the time. But I have my off days where nothing helps. 

Just to add to these, I have noticed that fasting helps me a lot too.

I have anxiety, especially health anxiety, and being a diabetic myself escalates my problems. I am a doctor and last 2 years depressing for me. Without medicines I can't control my anxiety. Along with medicines, sometimes light hearted movies, shows like SNL helps a lot. Besides my son keeps me sane. But having a little one and having health anxiety is never a good combination.

Relaxing long walks help a lot though. For me visiting new places helps too.

I don't know what I have

But at night. I always feel a sense of fear that something might happen to me and there is no one to take me to hospital . I get heart palpitations and nightmares.
