Well today I got up the nerve to call and set up drum lessons. People have told me I have a talent there. So we shall see. I want to try piano lessons but I need to find a cheaper place. Then maybe I can work up the courage for a class. Something to do with art. Hopefully things will work out. -

Its raining here today and I spent most of the morning in bed trying to sleep away the depression.Nothing motivates me. I just show up where I am suppose to and hope one day or be glad one day that the effort shows itself. I went to class last night, It was statistics..hard stuff. Some one wrote an article on me for some magazine. So, yea, that was different. My job coach and I sent out three res...1 Recommendation3 Comments -

To me there is no higher calling then helping others. And the best kind of helping others is helping those who cannot seek help themselves. For me that is the cats at 13th Street Cats. I have always given what I can- when I was about 4 or 5, I got $3 a week as allowance. One dollar had to go in to long term savings, one dollar had to go into short term savings (saving for a toy I wanted or whatev...1 Recommendation -

I am home sick today. I didn't do the receptionist work and I cancelled my kitties. Hopefully this passes and I feel much better tomorrow cause I have more kitties and my first meeting with a personal trainer (which I already had to reschedual once) tomorrow. I've been feeling kind of crappy and run down the past few days. Today I couldn't manage to get up to go volunteer. I wanted to...1 Comment -

Late last month and so far this month have been bad for me. I guess my thing is i want to start dating. I want to be with someone but I feel like no one wants me. Yeah, I'm still young but I want to be with someone i who i can talk with, trust. I want to cuddle in bed with someone and want to hold hands, fight and all of that stuff.

Depressed....not enough to call the doctor but enough to keep me indoors in my pyjama's wondering what's the point anymore.
I take Serotonin 5HTP for the depression and will have to up my dose to 300mg a day.
I'm not at the crying stage yet and hopefully I can avoid it with some quick action and a bit of effort and support from those around m...3 Comments -

Days are running past me very quickly; is it my age? My children are growing, but I am not! Of course this is normal but recently it feels as everything is moving in the fast lane. It must be my recent employment combined with the "regular". Have had some issues with colleagues; sometimes it feels like people want to use me, over and over, forever asking for help, as if I didn't nee...1 Recommendation
Shyness Information
Shyness is a feeling of insecurity that certain people experience while being among others, talking with others, asking favors of others, etc.
Shyness is most likely to occur during unfamiliar situations. Since many shy people thus avoid these situations in order to avoid feeling uncomfortable and inept, the situation remains unfamiliar and the shyness perpetuates itself. Shyness may also fade with time. A child who is shy toward strangers, for instance, may eventually come to lose this trait when older.
The initial cause of shyness can vary. Scientists have located some genetic data that supports the hypothesis that shyness is at least partially genetic. However, there is also evidence that the environment in which a person is raised can affect their shyness. Shyness can originate after a person has experienced a physical anxiety reaction; at other times, shyness seems to develop first and then later causes physical symptoms of anxiety.
See more Shyness Information.
