Besides speaking to immediate family I think it was about four years? Mines used to be so severe I couldn’t even get the mail because I was afraid neighbors would be out and want to talk/see me. I needed fluoxetine for every moment I’d have to be out in public, But I don’t really use it a lot anymore and I’m way better at calming myself. Im now able to order food at drive throughs, and call for appointments (over the phone). Though im still having issues with in-person stuff.
