If you had taken medications with an astute psychiatrist either in person or online, you need not have suffered for last 2 years. Improvement is seen in 1-2 minths, most recover completely. Anxiety and depression occurs due to altered serotonin ( a neurotransmitter) in the mind pathways and effective treatment is needed for recovery. Many due to stigma suffer without taking proper scientific treatment. Who defines mental health as "Mental health is a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well, and contribute to their community. It is an integral component of health and well-being that underpins our individual and collective abilities to make decisions, build relationships and shape the world we live in. Mental health is a basic human right. And it is crucial to personal, community and socio-economic development.
Mental health is more than the absence of mental disorders. It exists on a complex continuum, which is experienced differently from one person to the next, with varying degrees of difficulty and distress and potentially very different social and clinical outcomes."
So consult an astute psychiatrist and seek remedy
