Anxiety and depression can work together in a vicious cycle.

Depression can cause a person to feel sad, lonely and hopeless, and these feelings can cause the sufferer to feel very anxious indeed.  These feelings of Anxiety can exacerbate the feelings of Depression, and so the cycle continues.

The two main categories of Anxiety symptoms, psychic Anxiety (unpleasant feelings of fear, tension and apprehension), and somatic Anxiety (unpleasant bodily sensations, palpitations, sweating, abdominal discomfort etc), can both be largely contributing factors to feelings of Depression.

It is quite clear from the preceding two paragraphs, how Anxiety and Depression can work together, each maintaining and indeed, increasing the effects of the other, until often it is unclear in the thoughts of the sufferer which came first.

People with Anxiety also tend to avoid situations which might increase their anxious feelings, and this can in turn, lead to Depression.  Similarly, people with Depression might avoid situations, which can cause Anxiety for them.
