I was diagnosed with a personality disorder when I was a bit younger, and was put on a combination of gnarly meds, but eventually came off of them by myself. The social anxiety is still there, but I suck it up and try to adapt to my surroundings, and do an alright job of it, I think? Lol. Depression is a tricky little bitch that always creeps up when you least expect her to, I don't think pills are beneficial to everyone if they're used constantly. When I panic, I breathe until I'm calm and everything usually falls back into place.
