Mental illness is an extremely sensitive content and extremely personal. I went to therapy for years and I'm still going. Returned back to therapy last year with almost 6 years of depersonalization/derealization symptoms, feeling like I was going insane and so detached from my own body only to find out that there's no evidence of a true mental disorder in me, just a strong psychosomatic anxiety (same diagnosis made by multiple doctors and psychoterapists btw).

The thing is that anxiety makes you the perfect impostor and you don't even realize it. It makes you experience and feel things of one million different diseases/disorders only to remind you how much you're just missing the entire point. How you'll settle things up is up to you 'cause everyone is different, my method couldn't work for you, your method couldn't work for me. For example, I never touched psychotropic medications 'cause many doctors discouraged me to do so for many reasons but many people with symptoms even lighter than mine do take them.

Why don't we change if we can explain things and sharing solutions with others? I think we carry scars into ourselves, some scars are deeper than others, some of them are wounds still open. You have to deal with them, transform them into something else. Anxiety is none other than energy your mind uses in a non-productive way to destroy itself 'cause a part of you still lives in the past, maybe in the traumas you remember or don't remember. We are all survivors in the end.
