    • Close Families & Friends Affected By Suicide

      I lost my friend Grace to suicide in 2006. I became a different person. I developed post-traumatic stress and have trouble dealing with it, even today.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I've worked with a wonderful therapist who has helped me sort out some of my issues.
      Talking Working / Worked
      I've talked to others who have had to experience losing a loved one to suicide. It relieves the feelings of loneliness and isolation that have plagued me since it happened.
      Writing Working / Worked
      My journals have helped me through the roughest times. Writing letters to her also helps relieve the pain in the times I feel alone.
    • Close Bisexuality

      When I was much younger, I realized I wasn't completely like every other girl. Only in the past couple years have I come to accept myself as what I am. I have a huge challenge ahead of me: coming out to the world. Only four of my closest friends know about my sexual orientation. I want to feel free to be myself.

    • Open Self-Injury

      I started self-injuring in December 2006, a month after my friend's suicide. It has grown into something much greater than it was ever meant to be. I want to stop hurting myself.

      Treatments

      Rubber Bands Somewhat Helpful
      For a long time I would pop rubber bands on my wrists, but it didn't always help. I eventually gave up that method.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I've talked to other people who understand what self-harm is like, as well as people close to me who have had a difficult time digesting what I do.
    • Open Depression - Teen

      I have dealt with depression since I was 14, and it has nearly destroyed my life. I want to stop hurting.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Not Working
      It used to help, but not so much anymore.
      Music Working / Worked
      Without some of my favorite bands, I definitely would not still be here.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Been in therapy for a while.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      My friends have gotten me through some of the most horrible times.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      Talking to loved ones helps.
      Writing Working / Worked
      Venting, even if no one's around to listen, helps quite a bit.
    • Open Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      I have PCOS...obviously.

      Treatments

      Oral Contraceptives Working / Worked
      Regulated my menstrual cycle.
    • Open Gay & Lesbian Teens

      I'm bisexual and I want to feel comfortable with myself.
