Is there hope for someone like me?

I used to be a lot more outgoing and social but have become somewhat of a hermit in recent years as anxiety has taken over my life. Anyone had this through their 20s? Will this get any better? It stops me from doing so much.

Yes. It gets better as you mature and it gets WAY better with medication.

@Doomflower I tried meds once and it got a lot worse. I know there's lots of different meds but it put me off and I found it hard to even go to the doctors in the first place

@FapMasterJam I hear that. Like you I had a rough couple first meds and it put me off them for a long time. I finally went back to meds due to crippling depression and anxiety and found something that helps.
