    • About Me

      I work in child welfare with abused and neglected children. I have a degree in Social Work and a degree in Business Commerce. I have a great partner, a great family, fantastic friends, financial security... but i suffer from major depression and have just started suffering from anxiety aswell. I think it's really important for people who suffer these illnesses to communicate and support each other. After all- no one understands us better than eachother! Im a really honest, open person who likes to meet new people and share experiences, advice and hope. I live down under in Australia! I love it here, it's clean and green and a wonderful place to live. (no... we dont ride kangaroos) (- :
