[O] is it possible to rebuild your life after years of anxiety isolation and feeling stuck ?

Hi everyone,

I hope you’re all doing okay—or at least getting through the day.

I’m not really sure how to start this, so I’ll just be honest. I’ve been struggling with severe mood swings and anxiety for years now. My life has felt stuck in the same place for almost five years. I’m 21, and every year I try to pass my exams so I can start college, but I end up not going at all.

Over time, my social circle has gotten smaller and smaller. I haven’t seen some of my closest friends in years because of my social anxiety. It’s reached a point where I’m scared that I’ll be like this forever, or that it’s already too late for me to change.

I’ve been having suicidal thoughts because of all this, and I can’t access proper mental health care because I simply can’t afford it.

What I’m asking is: if anyone has gone through something similar and managed to turn their life around, could you please share your experience? How did you do it? Or even just tell me that it’s possible.

Simply if you have a story please share it with me

I really need some hope right now I need to see some light I need to believe that things can get better.

Thank you in advance.
