    • About Me

      I am a 26 year old teacher and have suffered from major depression and anxiety since I was 15. I have had several years of what I feel is the life I am meant to live and have reached another hurdle to get over.....which I will, and we all will.

    • Interests

      I like being outside in the sun, being with my family, reading, having coffee with good friends, crocheting cheesy things, listening to music, teaching, being silly and enjoying the little things in life. I'm a pretty easy going person and when i'm well, I can be quite amusing :) I also like a good salad.
