>because of my depression/anxiety and I can't socialize without it feeling like torture. I can't focus on their conversations, I just start worrying every few seconds without even noticing it. I used to be smart and could figure out puzzle games, and I was watching my friend play a puzzle video game and I felt so dumb. My memory is completely gone, so they keep reminding me of things I did in the past that I don't remember at all.
Dima, I don't know of course, but I wonder if the use of psych drugs that you want to alleviate various symptoms has actually made it harder for you to do the quick thinking needed for socialisation. Benzos for example can do this, while alleviating anxiety. Socialisation at your age is challenge enough. Just something to think about.
