I'm 27 now. To the severity that my life is at a stand still, its been 10 years. I had bouts when I was young too, in my early teens and possibly before. That felt different though. It was transient and I was actually feeling what I think depression should feel like. Now its relentless and I'm mainly desperately empty.I was extremely anxious throughout all my school years, infact I think its nothing short of a miracle that I came out with decent grades. As early as age 6-7 I can remember feeling panicky in lessons, especially if attention was drawn to me. I definitely had severe anxiety issues when I was very young. My mother says that I seemed to have seperation anxiety from day 1. There could be a genetic aspect to it, I suppose my dad has mild social phobia.
Cheers
