You need to learn and understand the skills that should have been explained to you.The only person who can decide what needs to be done is you and you are showing the need to visit family you are half way there.
You must be doing normal life jobs at home, if yu are you are doing something extend your duties and fulfill your needs.
Plan your journey and try and get up the courage to go, do you have anyone who could accompany you

With your depression do you have all day crying...like you can't stop
Hey Steve,
30 years and your still here, through worries and doubts and the pits of anxiety. Your very brave to go through it and you should direct that brave at beating it once for all, anything is possible.
Try self help books as helping yourself feels more rewarding and try mediation and continue to post your story here to be replied to. Go see your family as they can support you and I'm sure miss you.
Best of luck
Have you seen a rheumatoid specialist? They do kore then RA they also check you for auto immune issues. I know you have anxiety a long time and i can relate and all understood. Sometimes over time things change or come out that you didnt know were there as well. The body keeps score with all this, just rule it all out. Yes it can be the habit and programming of anxiety and such but sometimes some of the symptoms we have written off as anxiety arent. They can be hormonal or even auto immune stuff. Just saying. Just an opinion. It doesnt clear you from the disorder its just some of it might not be all anxiety, not anymore.
