    • About Me

      I want to become a writer, it seems that mere words can help me express these feelings. I am 23, live in Australia and currently I am turning my entire life around. Is a mid-life crisis at 23 possible? :P I have just started university studying in literary arts and theater. Finding it hard to keep up, but trying my best. I am very shy but caring, so please feel free to come to me for a chat. I always love to listen *hugs*

    • Interests

      I love art, music, drama, theater...anything arty or that expresses or explores life, the mind and soul. However, the depression has been bad so concentration and motivation is not always there.

    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I am currently over weight. Need to lose 40kgs. Tired of weight being an issue to prevent me from my dreams.

      Treatments

      Counting Calories Working / Worked
      Kilojoule based system. Eating much healthier and cooking from scratch. Great learning experience. Hard to maintain when I get depressed.
      Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
      Tried some of these diets. They didnt teach me anything. Working on a healthy kilojoule based system. Have learnt a lot. Feeling good but hard to maintain while depressed.
      Physical Exercise Not Working
      I am liking it, but I get too depressed to keep going.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      23 years old, no friends, fighting everything alone...I cant do it anymore

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked

      Paxil Considering
      Writing Working / Worked
      I HATE journal writing, I write stories instead. It is nice to put yourself in a fictional characters' shoes for a little bit.
    • Open Self-Injury

      Cutting for five years. Started from an abusive boyfriend who cut me to make him feel good.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I hate it. I don't like talking about it to people who "think" they know what it is like to cut.
    • Open Healthy Eating

      Never learnt how to eat properly...learnt to eat from a mother who used food for comfort.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      15-45 min daily...trying to.
    • Open Acne

      Struggled for years just like my mother. Has gotten worse with medication.

      Treatments

      Proactiv Working / Worked
      Been on for 6 months. Seems to be working well with the contraception I am on.
      Lavender Working / Worked
      I find that lavender is very soothing for my skin especially when it gets sore. Lavender helps to heal the skin faster. I put a few drops in some steaming water put a towel over my head and breathe in for a few mins. Very relaxing too.
    • Open Food Addiction

      Was taught from a mother who over ate that this was how you deal with problems. I am 22, have never been thin or healthy...I want to be these things now!
