I don't know much but believe I outgrew my depression. I have been in remission for 5 years now and am still not sure to this day what made the depression go away. It wasn't the meds, they didn't work. It wasn't ECT because I got worse after that. But something happened one day and I slowly started to leave depression behind. I think I just started to outgrow it. But I have no explanation. Now if only I could do the same with my anxiety.
