    • About Me

      I'm twenty at Eastern Carolina University. I love being in the marching band, my family, and my friends. I want to become a geriatric physical therapist in order to help those who need it the most.

      I love reading. It's gotten me through many a hard time, transporting me to whatever time and place that I want. I'm a marching pirate and play piccolo, and I love it. I want to be a geriatric physical therapist. I want to live. I want to be happy. Someday...

    • Close Self-Injury

      well, have been a self injurer since age ten or eleven and am twenty now. I go through periods of non self injury, and am trying to get to the point where I can just get past it.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      My therapist got me to throw away my *box*- It was a box where I kept all of my materials, gauze, tape, razors and such. I loved it because it was small enough for me to keep in my purse, so I felt safe everywhere I went, knew that I would be able to handle things. I've gotten new razors since.
      Red Marker Somewhat Helpful
      I've used red food dye before, but it stains my skin, which can be embarrassing, so even though it tends to work, I don't do it because of that.
      Talking Not Working
      I try to talk when I get into that zone, but I usually feel so depressed that I feel like what I'm saying can only come off as being melodramatic. I don't want people to think that of me, so I try to keep quiet.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Depression runs in my family, I've felt the affects of it since I was in the seventh grade.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Working / Worked
      I was actually on celexa, an early form of lexapro, and it caused panic attacks for me
      Prozac Working / Worked
      I really like it it seems to work but Im off it right now because I cant afford it.
      Zoloft Not Working
      Hated it- made me sick to my stomach
    • Open Sexual Abuse

      When I was around twelve my stepfather began making inappropriate commnents and would make me feel uncomfortable with massages. I thought it was all in my head until he tried to get me drunk and take advantage of me when I was seventeen.

      Treatments

      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I'm able to talk to one of my friends now, on bad nights. He is the only person I've ever really talked to extensively about this.
