well tbf i don't think it's that easy although overall i'm inclined to agree. i went through a lot of suffering, depression, anxiety and attempts to self-medicate in particular, all stemming from the same history and psychology that makes me the way i am.

however i DID work through it and now i am "normal". i dont have friends really and no interest in changing that either and i have trouble in situations which i can best describe as "sensory overload", but that's it. i leave my house every day and am other than this just a normal introverted person who likes to read books and has hobbies and interests like everyone else. so to that extent you can definitely "cure" this "illness".
