About Me
I am not accepting any new friends (please see my journal entry). I am quite sure that I have avoidant personality disorder. I have also suffered with depression in the past. I think my depression is caused in part by seasonal affective disorder because it tends to be worse in the late fall and early winter. I have know people who have BPD and I know a lot about that disorder. I genuinely like people with BPD, even with their crazy mood swings. I am interested in helping people who have BPD, are depressed, have urges to self injure, or who contemplate suicide. I am not a professional, but am like learning about treatments and self-help methods, and sharing things that work others. I will also give positive support and words of wisdom when I can.

Close Depression
Type: Seasonal Affective DisorderI have been depressed in the past and now want to stay free of it as best I can. I also want to help others who are depressed.
Treatments
- Meditation Working / Worked
- I find meditation helpful. Sometimes it is good to just turn off your thinking and give your mind a rest.
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- I think positive thinking and keeping a good attitude is the most important thing you can do. Positive thoughts lead to positve actions.
- Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
- Friends are definitely an essential element to being happy, but the problem is that it is difficult to make friends and develop friendships when you are depressed.
Close Seasonal Affective Disorder
I have come to realize that my worse bouts of depression are always in late fall and winter, so I think I probably have SAD. My worse months are October through December.
