Nordic guy saying hello

Greetings everyone,
Glad to be here and hope to learn and contribute. I'm 40, male and suffer from different types of anxiety (general, social and creative), depression, trust issues and am also overly concerned with my appearance.
My current situtation is one of unemployment and crappy finances. I used to have big plans but my dreams didn't work out as I was unable to acknowledge the severity of my depression and propensity for avoidance. Thus, I did not seek proper help. In rare moments of motivation I still have big plans but everytime I go for it, my illness seems to get in the way.
I had some therapy two years ago, but it was ineffective. I am currently looking to find a new therapist and possibly to go on meds. I've been listening to the Mental Illness Happy Hour for two years now and love it to bits.
