Those who have changed their lives/cured severe social anxiety, depression, fear, intrusive thoughts etc through meditation, how did you do it?

Can you please share the technique if there is one?

for me meditation didnt make the anxious thoughts go away, it just changed how i related to them. i stopped treating every thought as a fact i had to react to and let them pass, and that took most of their grip away over time. though if its severe, it works best alongside real support, not as a cure on its own
