Me and you both! I never got to the level either of you have, but then again I don't really know what it is I had.. or still have. I still have issues with anxiety and sometimes I have a couple days where I'll feel like I used to, but it's nowhere near what it used to be. I had issues with being social, issues with energy and sadness and pretty much a complete disregard for hygiene. I remember at one point I had worn the same socks for.. I don't even know how long. A month? Longer, shorter, couldn't tell you. I wore them outside so they were muddy and inundated with all kinds of who knows what. I do remember thinking I walked through water in the kitchen but it turned out to be dog piss. My response was "oh".. but somehow I still didn't change them. It didn't really phase me. I would just pick up clothes off the floor knowing they weren't clean, I wouldn't shower for weeks, and every time I got paid I pretty much just put in the bank and didn't really get anything. I didn't realize how bad it was up until a week or two ago when I saw an old picture of myself and it kind of brought it all back. Those were some ****ty times
