Open Sexual Abuse

I've have baggage when it comes to sexual encounters. Starting from when I was 14 years old. Not to say I haven't had a good encounter in my life. But the number of bad ones blow the good ones out of the water

Treatments

Leave Somewhat Helpful

I moved and hou r away from an abusive relationship. Unfortunately, he came after me a couple times (not to the point of calling authority to handle the situation). But once I was out and gone and stood my ground (without threatening) he left me alone. Just a couple nasty phone calls since then.

Talking Working / Worked

Unfortunately, yelling at first. Then later discussing that we would never be together again he finally backed off.

Open Depression

I have a case of depression. It comes and goes over month spans. Sometimes, it is so bad I can't go to work, can't even get out of bed.

Open Cocaine Addiction & Recovery

I used to be a big coke head. every time I think about snorting some my mouth starts to water and I have the sudden urge to shit (sense I did so little of that when I was on it). I've been in some bad situations, met some people I never want to meet again and done some bad things in my life when on this drug. I was addicted for about 1 and a half to 2 years too long. I quit twice cold turkey soon after one of my close friends was brutally injured in an accident.

Treatments

Cold Turkey Working / Worked

I noticed when I was doing cocaine it was because I was unhappy about something. I did it to numb the pain and forget. Then when I was heavily into it I was doing it because I wanted more. More. More. I stopped caring about everything else and just wanted to feel okay again. When I decided to stop I change my entire life. I moved to another city got an okay job broke off the relationship that I was in and tried to star over.

Open Diabetes Type 1

I have had diabetes since I was two and a half years old. When I was a teenager I was not only rebelling against my parents but myself. I never took care of myself and did a lot of drugs to try to pretend nothing was wrong with me. I am still recovering from that. My body is still in one piece but very sensitive now. Also my eye sight is starting to go.
