I thought: “well, my frontal lobes must have matured.” I felt like my anxiety and social agoraphobia was lessening.Yet, in my later 20s, I felt a really pivotal shift and it got really bad. I wasn’t only agoraphobic, I was completely antisocial. I could handle a one-on-one conversation, but if I was in a crowd, I would have a panic attack.So, I went to a psychiatrist and tried medication after medication after medication.
