    • About Me

      I work and go to school and am trying to find a way to be happy on the side. I am pretty shy and intimidated by people I don't know...I have a very hard time making new friends, even at a big university!

    • Close Food Addiction

      Compulsive/Binge Eating

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Not enough
    • Close Eating Disorders

      I have struggled with compulsive/binge eating for the past couple of years.

    • Open Depression

      I have not been professionally diagnosed..yet. But This community best describes my symptoms of low self-esteem, hopelessness, discontent, and anxiety.

      Treatments

      Wellbutrin Somewhat Helpful
      I could tell it dealt with the depression a great deal...but my anxiety has skyrocketed. I can't sleep very well, and I tend to loose my appetite. I think I may switch soon.
    • Open Depression - Teen

      I'm beginning to grow out of the "teen" status, but considering that most of my experience with my depression has been in highschool, I think I can help and get help from this community.

      Treatments

      Music Working / Worked
      Listening to music adn going to concerts and anything like that helps me a lot. Without music, I think I would be a goner.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I have a best friend, now my roommate, who shares similar depression symptoms, though not as severe. I find comfort in the fact that she feels somewhat the same, but talking about it never cures it.
      Writing Too Soon to Tell
      I have kept a journal on and off for all my life, and now I have this website. It is helpful while I am writing, but it has no sign of being an overall cure.
    • Open Sexual Abuse

      I was scared to join this community because I'm still confused on what happened back when I was 8...I have blocked it out for so long it's still hazy. All I know is that the third grade was a bad year for me.

      Treatments

      Talking Working / Worked
      I have only told one person before, my exboyfriend. It was kind of an accident, but he was there for me and it was alright.
    • Open College Stress

      I thought college would make things better for me, but now that I'm here I'm miserable.

    • Open Anxiety

      I have dealt with depression for three years now, but my anxiety has never been as bad as it is now..
