About Me
I'm a college student studying psychology. Additionally, I believe I might be cursed, although I don't believe in curses:P As for my philosophy, I believe in striving to evolve into what I believe would be a paragon of a person, that is to fulfill my full potential.

I’m With You
You truly are not alone in this massive world. I'm not on like i used to be but have a feeling i will be a lot more as time passes and the hurt doesn't. So if you ever need an ear and willing to return the favor one day, I'm your man :) Smile today, its truly easier and uses less muscles than a frown :)
Hug
sorry about the downturn ... things always look better in the morning (at least that is what my mother in law used to tell me - she was great, I loved and miss her a lot).

Support Groups
Close Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety
I've tried so hard over the past two years to gain more self confidence, and preform more antiquity in social situations. At this point I really thought I'd be over my SA by now. I mean it's just seems as if I've plateaued i It's as if this is the best it's gonna get. But I would really like that not be the case.
Close Rheumatoid Arthritis
I was diagnosed with RA with I was 18. The pain started in my hands. I was put on Prednisone , which worked adequately enough for quite a while, but over the past 6 months it has become more of a nuisance than a help. I gained a ton of weigh, and the pain has become so much worse, mostly in my keens. After being giving the run- around by my insurance company for sometime I was finally approved for Enbrel. I haven't started it yet, but I have my fingers crossed, and it doesn't hurt too much.
Treatments
- Plaquenil Working / Worked
- didn't work for me
- Prednisone Working / Worked
- did work, now, not so much. I gained a lot of weight on it.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I have rheumatoid arthritis, and the treatment that I'm on for it lead me to gain weight; about 20 lbs. Further, the fact that is medication isn't working very well anymore has caused my joint pain to become a lot worse. And this led me to become more sedentary than I used to be.
Treatments
- Counting Calories Working / Worked
- to much of a hassle
- Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
- not really
- Eat Less Working / Worked
- It's easier said then done
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- it works, it's just hard for me at this time
Open Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI started having feelings of depression around the age of 13. This was mostly due to the loneliness that I experienced because of my social anxiety. I've gotten better since my teen years, but lately I've been starting to feel very melancholy again.
Treatments
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- I wasn't on it long enough to give an accurate assessment.
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- it depends on what I'm dealing with. Positive thinking works sometimes, and others it just not enough.
- Prozac Working / Worked
- didn't really help... I did loss some weight on it though
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I had one good therapist... I've been thinking of going back
- Writing Working / Worked
- It helps a bit, starts to feel like a chore sometimes though.
- Zoloft Working / Worked
- It's helped me, but the withdraw is hell.
