What's up with people posting about how they're cured?

It's funny you mention this because just yesterday I deleted many posts that I made on this subreddit in an effort to help others since I felt like maybe I was giving off the wrong impression that I had beaten social anxiety (which is the furthest thing from the truth). Truthfully speaking, I was just trying not to be overly negative in what I'd say so that people wouldn't feel even worse about themselves, but the fact I ever even tried to help, given my own situation, was just hypocritical of me. I'm pretty much the last person anyone should be taking life advice from, honestly.

I'll also say, I was diagnosed 14 years now and I don't think it's actually possible for this to go away, all we can truly do is learn to manage it.
