Hi everyone, here I am joining this forum. I recently started listening to the podcast and they're great, and making confront a lot of things. Its been incredible listening to other peoples stories and connect pieces to my life and just and sit back and realize how much I need to really deal with my illness, And so I guess I'm here now, just needing to share and talk, depression and anxiety take up so much of my thinking that I worry I overshare to friends, and I probably don't ever really say much at all. I'm about to go back to a psychiatric nurse to start medication, and I'm nervous because its so hard for me to advocate for myself I'm scared of medical authorities. I've been back in a depressive slump these past few months, and the anxiety is just eating me alive on top of it, like now I'm agonizing over what exactly to write in this post or if I should. I recently turned 30 and my memories of life are just a series of depressive crises while life swirls around me, I want to do things and be somebody again, not just live my illness. I'm currently in therapy, wrestling with whether or not I smoke too much pot and contemplating sobriety (which is some kind of step), and mostly trying to figure out how to feel a kind of passion for life again.
So hi y'all can't wait to be part of this community

Re: Hello Hello
I was wicked active and have taken a little hiatus because my brain went duh and I could no longer "do" being present -
I am glad that there are people coming in to share and talk and discuss and I just hope that my words my thoughts my support helped someone on here at some point even for a moment...

Just another messed up chick, who hates her body and face, and voice, and thinks she is useless and her stuff isn't that bad and she should get over it.
