I had anxiety for a year or a year and a half. Quickly realized it was some coward shyt embedded in narcissism. Beat it with meditation, breathing techniques, and battling my ego.

Depression is a mothefukker though. Everything in the world is grey.. I haven't seen the green on trees in years :damn:

shyt imagine dealing with social anxiety when part of your job is traveling to visit customer sites. I wouldn't sleep for like a week straight before having to go on a work trip because my social anxiety was kicking in. Then I'd get to the sites and be so nervous and out of sorts I wouldn't talk to anybody. Over time I learned to almost develop a fake persona I could put on when out and about around people to help cover it all up.
How’d you get past your anxiety? Putting up a front sounds too tiresome.

Imaging being diagnosed with both :leon: It's stupid to compare disabilities like one is better than the other. People have taken their own lives from depression so how you gonna minimize something like this?

Social anxiety is just as bad. Honestly OP, I don't think you were diagnosed with either bc of the way you think and talk but I'm not a doctor...

Both fukked up but , with SA you can be hermit . Depression is something you can't escape.
A lot of people say they have social anxiety but usually it's just bc they're doing something they don't want to do. With social anxiety you physically/mentally CANT do things you want to do either. It isn't a choice of do it or not. I been diagnosed with both for almost a decade and neither is better than the other. PTSD is a bytch to live with. I hate it. shyt sucks in any form :pacspit:
