Default Old member returning.

Joined this site a few years back but left because I had improved and didn't feel I needed it so much. Although I have improved alot as in I no longer get panic attacks and I can now hold conversations with people I know I'm still stuck with a few things. It's the unknown that still makes me anxious. Hate going new places it makes me anxious so I always have to have someone with me. Also when I know i have to talk to people I don't know I get anxious. I've been feeling depressed alot lately as well and always remember this place being somewhere I could come to talk so figured I would return. Guess I'm just looking for some people to chat with to help push me out my comfort zone and to possibly make some new friends

I know what you mean. I was able to live a somewhat 'normal' life for a few years while I was away. Done alot of things I never imagined I could do. I think we assume it's gone when we feel 'better' but in reality it's always there in the background. I guess at some periods in life it's just easier to cope with
