Greetings, saw a big smile so I just had to stop by and say hi. I've dealt with depression and bipolar for most of my life and would be glad to help if I can.

Support Groups
Close Depression
Depression not only runs in my family but so does bipolar disorder. I've always had mood swings but not until my last boyfriend did the depression begin. My constant stress over him and us constantly fighting and breaking up and getting back together...these are what triggered my depression. Then we finally broke things off i hit a low point where all i wanted to do was cry, and sleep. I'm still very depressed but at least I hide it well with a plastered smile on my face.
Treatments
- Lexapro Too Soon to Tell
- Started it recently...cant tell if its working yet.
- Psychotherapy Considering
- Nervous about talking to someone i dont know...
- Writing Somewhat Helpful
- Writing in my journal helps me organize my thoughts.
Close College Stress
i'm a senior at uconn, education major. My love life, on top of my constant need for overachieving creates stress for me that is unbearable. I dont sleep much, to get the grades i need, and starting student teaching this year....ooo so much more stress to come. sometimes i just dont know how to handle it.
Treatments
- Sleep Working / Worked
- o how i love sleeping. naps are a girls best friend
- Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
- talking to family sort of helps. Neither of them went to college tho so it makes it a little harder for them to relate.
Open Codependency
Ever since i've started dating when i was 16, I have been incredibly needy of any love and affection. I rely on a man to make me happy and i always fall for whoever gives me attention. I'm here to start learning how to live just for me and to stop this vicious cycle of neediness and depression when things go bad.
Treatments
- Music Somewhat Helpful
- Talking Somewhat Helpful
- therapy is sort of helping me right now
- \"Codependent No More\" Working / Worked
Open Healthy Relationships
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Considering
- I am looking up doctors that are focused on my age group and relationship problems. I need to break my cycle. I just dont know if im too far gone already.
- Talking Not Working
- I can talk all i want but until i see a man who wont destroy my life...i'll never believe it.
- Writing Somewhat Helpful
- i write music and poetry to help vent my feelings. it sort of helps.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
My entire life I've always been yo-yoing with my weight and have always had health issues that I sometimes contribute to my awful eating habits. Im not obese but I know that Im not healthy. I hate my body and i get depressed looking at myself sometimes.
Treatments
- Physical Exercise Too Soon to Tell
- I am joining the gym with my boyfriend and hoping that getting active will give me more energy and improve my body image.
- Weight Watchers Too Soon to Tell
- Im joining weight watchers with my mom and hoping its gonna help. We're gonna go to meetings together
