    • Close Healthy Relationships

      I can't maintain relationships with people. I don't conciously drive people away, but my behaviour does.

      Treatments

      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      I write simply to get stuff off my mind.
    • Close Kleptomania

      I have been stealing for years, since I was 14, I can't stop it, and I am so humilated by it.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      I worked as a prostitue for around 4 months, I think it would actually be good to start a support group for prositutues and ex ones.

    • Open Depression

      I have suffered depression on and off for 5 years, now on medication and hopefully dealing with it. I still have my up and down days.

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      Effexor Working / Worked
      Writing Working / Worked
      Writing is probably my biggest outlet, whenever I'm down/angry, I write until I cannot anymore.
    • Open Rape

      I was raped at age 14, by a family member, it's been a tricky thing to deal with as I still have confusing issues surround it.

      Treatments
