About Me
My name is Lyndsey and I am currently a graduate student at Kutztown University studying Elementary School Counseling. I hope that one day I will be able to make a difference in the world by couseling our youth to make the future better and brighter. I am currently involved in a 5-year relationship with the most wonderful and supportive boyfriend in the world who has seen me through thick and thin. "Live for today because yesterday is in the past and tomorrow has yet to come."

Support Groups
Close Bipolar Disorder
My illness started about 5 years ago and has been my enemy ever since. My disorder involves many deep depressions and hospitalizations, not many manic episodes. I seem to be on an even keel lately with medications that are really helping, but I need the support of some real friends, which is what I am looking for.
Treatments
- Abilify Working / Worked
- I tried abilify once and got off of it right away because of the side effects. The second time I tried it, I found the right dose, which has been working ever since.
- Depakote Somewhat Helpful
- Depakote somewhat helped my mood swings, but the nausea and sickness that came along with it made me stop taking it.
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Considering
- I have heard many good things about this therapy.
- Geodon Somewhat Helpful
- Did not help as much as needed.
- Group Therapy Working / Worked
- Group therapy works well for me because of the support I get from the other members.
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- Lamictal has worked for me from the beginning and continues to work for me now.
- Abilify Working / Worked
- Seems to be working as of now...keeping my fingers crossed.
Close Eating Disorders
Type: Obligatory ExerciseI do not have an official diagnosis since one for over-eating does not technically exist, but I have been to an eating dis. treatment center and I have sought therapy for it...nothing has seemed to help. I still compulsively overeat until I feel sick as every meal. I have gained 70 lbs and I keep gaining. I have no slef-esteem at all and I hate my body. I used to also purge on occassion, and I spent a month not eating...so I have experienced a little of everything.
Treatments
Open Self-Injury
I started cutting about three years ago, but I haven't cut in about a year. Every day I have to look all over my body and see the damage that I have done to myself, yet I find myself wanting to cut at least a couple times a week.
Open Personality Disorders
Type: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)I was originally diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, but when I was in the hospital the last time, I was told I had borderline personality disorder. I suffer from many deep depressions, cutting and overeating.
Treatments
- Wellbutrin Working / Worked
- Abilify Working / Worked
- Cymbalta Working / Worked
- Lamictal Working / Worked
Open Food Addiction
I have been suffering from overeating for only about a year, but I have gained over 70lbs. I need some serious help with how to stop. I need to lose some weight....I seem to be changing jeans sizes every other week!!!
