Answer 1

You can't run away from yourself or your problems, They go along with you. You say you want to be the "girl I used to be" so you have a goal and need a means to get to it. If you are going to a counselor and taking meds realize the meds are not a "magic bullet" and they take time to get the full effect. Counseling takes time too as the counselor needs to get to know you and your problems. Be patient!

I can't help much more because I don't know you or your situation and problems, besides I am not a counselor. I just have been depressed and suffered anxiety before and recovered. It took time.

Remember, every cloud has a silver lining, good luck, good health, peace and love!
