      From Tob September 17, 2008

      Aissaspader hang in there. Your self description struck a chord within me. It can be difficult to find an outlet for excess energy, both positive and negative. Self disclipine. Tob.

    • Close Celiac Disease

      I was born in the 70's with celiac. My mom did an amazing job of making sure I was gluten free. I went to birthday parties with my own "special" slice of cake. My teenage years I ignored my illness and was sick all the time. In my 20's I tried to follow the GF diet. Now my 30's are here and I struggle more than ever. When I make mac n cheese for my 7 yr old I struggle with wanting to eat the wheat eventhough I have a GF box in the cupboard. I need to conquer this!

      Treatments

      Gluten Free Diet Working / Worked
      It works great when I stick with it 100% but the minute I eat gluten like oats, wheat barley etc. my stomach balloons, I break out with dermatitis hyperforma, I have no energy, I'm beyond edgy and my skin is pastey and wrinkled. If I stay true to the GF diet I have beautiful skin, energy and i'm actually pleasant to be around.
    • Close Self-Injury

      I still remember the first moment I slashed my right arm..I remember everything in detail...for years I really believed it was my right to cut myself but now I am torn because inside I want to care about myself...almost 20 years of cutting with only a 3 year period where I stopped..

      Treatments

      Group Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      It does help to hear about the hell others go through too.
      Outpatient Treatment Program Somewhat Helpful
      It is too hard for me to open up in person about the self-abuse...i'm not embarrased...well maybe I am
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      This is helping...at least once a month
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      It really helps me to know others go through this too and i'm not just a whackjob.
