Anxiety and depression are strange. They change your entire personality, I am 25 I feel like I am just now figuring out who I am. Who I want to be. For most my life I was being who I needed to be. I didn't stand for anything. Just wanted to make it through the day without hurting and hiding. I don't miss the feeling of having to be perfectly on time to avoid "awkward moments". Not eating for days because admitting you were hungry may inconvenience someone. Or how people thought I was stuck up and rude because I didn't throw my arms around strangers and drunk chat in the bathroom. Getting overly attached thinking I couldn't do anything on my own. But I did it. I did it all on my own. I have a home. I make a living. I have friends and family who want me to succeed. I am standing for me.
