I have had depression, social anxiety and zero self worth since i was very young it has caused me to have very limited happiness in life and I have never had any kind of close relationship to anyone other then my family.The problem is there is no problem no actual reason for me to feel this way and some how this makes me feel worse. I have been on medication in the past but i need to know if there is anyway to truely overcome this on my own?

i'm going through the same thing at the moment, where i just cant put my finger on it i know somethings but not others if that makes sence, i went to the doctors today they have refered my to get some counselling, i think this is probably the best way as there are professionals that are able to help. I should listen to myself writing this but its so much easier telling other people.
