Could I have had an anxiety disorder and didn’t even know?

I’m 16 years old and a junior. When i was in 6th grade iI suffered from extreme anxiety. I recently decided to do research to see if that was normal and I discovered shocking results. I showed symptoms of both Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disoorder. But I never recieved treatment and a doctor never tested me on it. I’m completely better know, so i think i probably didn’t have it. But I showed all but one symptom for GAD and amost all the syptoms for SAD. Is it possible that just daily trips to the school’s social worker cured me? Could I have had GAD or SAD?
I don’t have it anymore. I’m a very social person now. Just a little shy, but it’s a normal shy. Did I have before and get cured just by seeing a social worker?
If anyone is a doctor, please answer. Or if you really know this stuff.

well it depends. if it is somehow getting in your life then probably you need to ask for a doctor’s advice about it.
