About Me
I need to make one thing clear- I am here to get help and support. I am not here to meet a mate. Only contact me if you are looking to give support or receive support. This is not a dating service and I don't need a DATE. SO ABOUT ME-I'm a 30 year old biracial, bisexual female, who has a huge heart. I'm a scientist who's mission is cure cancer. I love helping people and I work hard. I'm going thru alot right now-I have alot of demons to fight and I am hoping that I can find the strength to carry on just as I have done in the past. I suffer from depression and anxiety from violence in my past, bad mistakes that I've made, and bad family relationships. These issues are only compounded by all of my other illnesses. Currently, I am rebuilding a long-term relationship with my boyfriend (who is seeking his own help). Last year, I was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called von Willebrand disease which is similar to hemophilia. This year, I've been challenged with dealing with the death of my older brother and my birth mother within a month of each other.

Interests
Volunteering when I can. I like read (I always have a book with me) and write (I always have paper and pen). I've won many awards for my poetry and short stories. I love listening to and dancing to all types of music. I'm an amateur belly dancer who performs when I can. My creative side also includes crafts like needlepoint and jewelry making. I'm a controlled shop-a-holic. I also enjoy working with women who are and/or have been victims of domestic violence and teenagers who suffer from low self-esteem.
