   I meant to live. The specific example I had in mind was food and water. Everyone's dependent on something to maintain health and proper functioning, some people need psychiatric medication in addition to the standard components.

   That is obnoxiously reductionist m8.
   
   And if you want to go that way, you can cure anxiety and depression by forgoing food and water, so you don't need anything to cure your mental illness ;)

   I've always said, in the event that you are having severe anxiety issues making it thus near impossible to cope with any situation, that you should smoke an aggressively large amount of marijuana in as small a time-frame as possible and go attempt to do 10 minutes of stand-up at an open mic night in your area. Wear dirty clothes and shit in your pants just a little bit before you go on stage.

   This is generally awful advice. While exposure therapy does work to a degree, for someone with serious anxiety and mental health/neurological disorders, it will not work at all; this type of person will end up in negative feedback loops from exposure to society, either generally due to negative reaction from society (due to person's aura), or negative reaction to society from person (due to person's distorted worldview).
   
   Step 1 for this particular person is medication. If medication alleviates symptoms, then exposure therapy is the next step.
   
   "Man up" mentality can be really fucking simplistic.

    Try to overcome your anxiety the old fashioned way, ie be a man and toughen up, face your fears and conquer them.
    
    I also suggest using a psychedelic substance to bring your inner demons to the surface and facing them / overcoming / acceptance. Treat the trip as a serious spirit quest rather than something recreational.

    Surgically remove the part of your body that allows you the ability to feel anxiousness.

    There are lots of ugly people who still live successful lives. Anything can hold you back if you allow it to.

    I cured mine by stopping giving a fuck about what anyone has to think about anything. Works very well.

    At the hospital there is a list of 10 ways to aide in stress. one is meditation. one is Yoga, one is sex or masturbation. masturbate if you don't have a partner.
    
    then, if it comes down to it.. and it's not used all the time. It's known a few Benadryls will calm you as well.
