Hi all. I am new to this site but have been a long-time, contributing member of another. I am looking for a place to help me deal with the other side of my issues, and of course, help others in the process.

I have a long history, which is very difficult to pin-down because of many years hiding, lying, and eluding my physical health, PTSD, mental health, and now, chronic depression. I have good days and bad. There are waves of each but it seems that since 2007, the waves are higher and trend to the bad.

I am here to try to get a grip on myself and how / why I feel the way I do. I am here to explore 20+ years of hiding and repressing my past. I do not have sexual abuse or family issues from growing up. My youth, as I look back, was a wonderful time and executed to near perfection by two very loving, caring, and intelligent parents. i know my problems are my own, manifested by my interpretation, decisions, and allocation. I own them and I do not deny my accountability to them.

I am here to listen, but I absolutely suck at managing my own baggage. i guess that is relatively normal hence the old quote "Heal Thyself".

Anyways, thanks for allowing the info, feels good so far, and I look forward to seeing you guys in-forum.
