I used to suffer from severe anxiety and depression. Within the last year I no longer take prescribed medications for anxiety or depression. Fortunately I no longer suffer from panic disorder or anxiety symptoms and any depression I experience is as a result of a withdrawal symptom or as a result of  where I am in my life,  the person I've become,  the situation that I'm in,  the addict or addiction that has increased over the course of time, etcetera
