Hi Lorenz,

I take anti-depressants which help alleviate my depression so I am more motivated to work on my anxiety. When I don’t take the meds I lose motivation and my anxiety gets worse because I stop doing things like talking to people, going out etc.

And I wouldn’t say my anxiety is cured. Anxiety is an emotion just like being sad, happy, angry etc. Anxiety is there is everyone and because I have a mental illness anxiety does flare up from time to time. I would say instead of cured, I manage it and I look after myself well. Like I can do public speaking as part of my job, but I still have anxiety it’s just that I manage it well enough so it doesn’t hold me back. I hope that makes sense?
