About Me
I'm a rape survivor - that's why I joined ds in March 2008. I'm studying psychology...possibly getting a master's in social work, or maybe going on to get a PhD? I love English literature and foreign languages, especially American Sign Language and German. I work out often - I love to run. I want to compete in a sprint triathalon within the next year. I love warm weather and probably belong somewhere where I can grow avacados and mangos in trees in my yard. I really like photography.

Close Rape
I was date raped 4 days after my 19th birthday. I have made a lot of progress and am moving on with my life. :)
Treatments
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- After I run, I feel like I am invincible; no one can touch me. I like all kinds of working out - weights, swimming, rowing, the elliptical, rollerblading, running. It especially helps with my anger.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I went to a counselor 2 1/2 days after I was assaulted; it has been a huge help. Talking to a counselor is wonderful.
- Talking Working / Worked
- I talk to close friends and family all the time; I always feel a little better after I get all of my emotions out.
Close Healthy Eating
I've been an emotional eater ever since I can remember, and now I could stand to lose a good 20 pounds. I just cannot stop eating when I'm not hungry - it's like I'm addicted to dessert! I'm hoping this group will help me eat healthier foods and eat when I'm hungry, not when I'm emotional or bored or out of habit.
Treatments
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- I have exercised consistently for a good 6 or 7 years, and it helps keep my weight steady.
