Hi, I am 28, a girl. I have been using the chat room since September of 2009 and it has helped me a lot. A ton of the people I have known since the beginning and have formed friendships with, it is great
I have depression but it is actually bi-polar. I have anxiety, dissociation, and borderline personality disorder. Okay those are my labeled problems.
But really I just have a hard time with life sometimes, not all the time. Some times life can be rather okay. I am finding the more I am able to put myself out there and listen to others advice including my therapists the more I am able to get healthy. I have had my fair share of hospitalizations but they have made me stronger by giving me more coping skills.
I am a honest person, I am a loyal friend, I cant spell as everyone soon will be able to tell lol, I am playful, I am kind, I want to help others all the time even when I don't feel good myself, I love to feel like I am making a positive change somehow, I like to bike, hike, do crafts, do art, watch movies, TV, hang out with family or friends, go to coffee shops, read informational books, take interesting classes at school, go for walks, play with my dog and/or my cats, hang out with my nieces and nephews, shop, take photographs/edit them, try new things, etc... when I am feeling well
I think I get overwhelmed easy, life is hard for me. But when I am doing well I think I have a lot to offer to others and can contribute. I am trying and that is all I can do. Sometimes I don't feel I can make it and that all the trying in the world will not work, but today is not one of those days. I feel I will learn to live with what I've got and I will be happy, tomorrow might be different. Anyways that's it that I guess is my profile
