    • About Me

      I am a 26 yr. old male from Youngstown Ohio. I reside in one of the local suburbs after a year stint on the southside of the city which was a interesting experience to say the least. I am currently trying to finish up a bachelors degree at the local university and doing some vocational job training. I am a veteran of the Army National Guard. I just ets'd this past summer. I have had some problems in the past with drinking and I gave the 12 step program an honest try but no longer think it is a productive way to do anything except compulsively attend meetings and have people tell you "your thinking is screwed up and your stupid"...mind you a great majority have a 3rd grade education..so thats interesting. Ultimatley I am working at getting back on my feet and potentially will learn to drink moderatley again at some point. I am happy today because I am no longer dependent on "dogmatic" beliefs found in the "rooms" and have a mind of my own, and the free will that comes with it.

    • Close Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

      Whatever I have enjoyed in my life I have always been all in. This includes a fascination with dinosaurs at a your age, reese cups..which I gave up because of the chubby side effect, exercise and lifting, playing football, Drinking/partying, women....and it manifests itself everyday with washing my hands a good 20 times, and obsessing over uncontrolable life events...aka ..disease, senses of impending doom... learning to live in moderation.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Working / Worked
      took it as an anti-depressant for a period of time. Noticed some difference.
    • Close Hypochondria

      I wash my hands 20 times a day, and I have fear of diseases, ones you can contract, and ones that occur naturally...cancer. etc. etc. It affects normal areas of life such as relationships, going certain places... etc. etc.
