MH/anxiety take? 

Here's possibly a tip. Take with grain of salt or 60.

Do not attempt to brute force your way through mental health issues. It is an absolutely terrible idea. I have tried.

I'm not sure how I'm still alive but I'm definitely not functional. I feel like a machine going through motions. I'm not equipped to diagnose myself properly or explain my symptoms because i keep instinctually writing it off as "just making a big deal out of nothing and just wasting everyone's time".

MH/anxiety take? 

Please please get help if you can, however that is done. Self help through approved channels, talking with a support group be that close friends or an actual group set up by people, a doctor or specialist, yoga, whatever helps. Just don't... Please do not do what I've done and just internalise and push it all to the back of my mind.

It will destroy you. I wouldn't wish "just getting over it" on anybody. It's soul crushing.
