    • About Me

      I a decent guy who makes an effort to get on with everyone and wants to be considered a good, worthwhile person in society. However I feel as though I don't 'fit in' on many levels with mainstream society and life often feels more like something to be endured rather than something to be enjoyed. I wish I didn't feel this way, but that is how I often feel.

      I'm a very visual person so I spend a lot of time browsing the internet, watching TV, playing video games, watching movies. I like day dreaming and contemplating.

    • Close Depression
      : Clinical (Major) Depression

      Diagnosed about 8 years ago when I was 18. Tried various ways to tackle it with drugs, counselling, self-help reading, group sessions and realise this illness will be a part of me for the rest of my life. Luckily it's not all doom and gloom. I have good days and bad days and today is an ok day :)

      Treatments

      Celexa Somewhat Helpful
      Helps stabilize mood although lowers libido.
      Effexor Not Working
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      To have positive thinking and truly believe in these thoughts results totally relieves depression, however maintaining positive thinking is easier said than done.
      Prozac Not Working
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      Being able to talk openly about how you feel and not be judged can really help offload some negativity.
      Writing Working / Worked
      I blog when I feel stressed. I dont write it for other people to read, I just use it as a way to vent and help clarify my thoughts. It works and can sometimes result in positive thoughts.
    • Close Phobia
      Type: Social Phobia

      I have a fear of dying, which I control by locking the thoughts away in the back of my mind. Although it sounds unhealthy to bury a fear, all I know is, when I embrace the fear I am left feeling panicked, constantly crying and in an overwhelming state of despair. It goes miles beyond a more typical phobia in my opinion as there is no physical way to avoid it. Instead I must mentally avoid it.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Not Working
      My counsellor had no idea how to help this issue and dangerously kept trying to bring the fearful thoughts to the surface which did little but make me extremely depressed and panicked. I believe something like this would be better dealt with by a specialist if such a thing existed.
    • Open Anxiety

      Anxiety and I are like two peas in a pod

      Treatments

      Inderal Not Working
      Didn't really seem to do a lot for me.
      Valium Somewhat Helpful
      10mgs of Diazepam helps reduce that nervousness /butterflies feeling.
    • Open Dry Eyes

      I suffer from eye pain with has had a detrimental effect on my life, career and hobbies. Its a problem I experience daily and although diagnosed as dry eyes by one specialist, several other specialists have diagnosed it as something else or don't know.

    • Open Breakups & Divorce

      My ex broke up with me a few years ago after a 5 year relationship. I don't know if I'll ever fully get over it.

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Not Working
