About Me
I am a 26 year old female. I have suffered from depression, panic attacks and dissociation for most of my life. I have been agrophobic for 4 years and have been in therapy since my breakdown 4 years ago. I am gradually getting better with the love of family and friends and a lot of determination. I am taking things a day at a time. I enjoy meeting new people and like helping others. I am here for you if you need to talk and look forward to meeting new friends x
