I'm creating this thread because I've suffered from SEVERE CRIPPLING anxiety ever since I started my teen years, suicidal depression, and terrible panic attacks. It was so bad I felt like my heart would explode randomly when I would walk around any crowded areas alone. I started to develop a speech impediment and was stuttering a lot when I've always had a very clear and concise way of speaking. I even saw a therapist who pretty much didn't do shit for me other than recommend me to see a psychiatrist and give me pity rather than help me become stronger.
Ever since the New Year started I noticed that my anxiety has decreased by upwards of 80% and I'm not sure what is the reason or why or how. I moved away from my family last year and during this winter break I went back to see them all and I was extremely stressed out to the maximum, but once I got there everything felt so natural and I felt so happy and alive. I came back with this positive energy that I can slowly feel day by day wearing off a bit.
Have any of you struggled with mental health illnesses? Have any of you actually beat them without the use of pills or other substance? I wanted to make this thread because I always have been boxed in my head my whole life and I know how terrible it feels so feel free to write your story and struggle. I feel as if those of us who have struggled with these things can definitely benefit from learning from each other, and those that don't struggle with them can gain knowledge to help out someone they might know who experiences this.
