As a disclaimer I’d like to start this off by stating that I’m a newbie when it comes to blogging, chatting in chatrooms, contributing to forums and sharing personal information and problems with people whom I’ve never met. I’m not one to unload my issues onto people, everyone has their own struggles, and battles their own demons. With all that said I am here in hopes that someone relates to what I speak of and can perhaps guide me in a direction I may have not previously ventured, and in turn I hope I can help with anyone that cares to share with me their troubles. Other than work (which is primarily solitary) I don’t really have friends I can discuss these topics with, aside from my girlfriend which is going to school to be a Therapist ironically. I have been diagnosed with an Anxiety Disorder and ADHD and take medication for both. Previous years I have been diagnosed with Depression and had a drinking problem, now I only drink on special occasions and even though I feel depressed a lot I don’t like the side effects of the antidepressants so my Doctor recommended natural supplements to help. During that process and even still to this day I learn alot about how chemicals and supplements effect ones mood and overall health. I’m really interested in psychology and am fascinated by how the brain works, so I’m constantly trying to figure out what’s wrong with my own wiring because even though I take medications for my issues I still don’t feel right and still get really lonely, sad and overall just not happy like I remember being once upon a time. This is not to say I am a mopey and down person because I still have passion for things and still experience joy, it’s just different now and I’m not sure why….. So here I am. Thanks for taking time to read my little intro, I’ll post more little by little as I become more comfortable opening up, because trust me I’ve got some stories. Feel free to message me if anyone wants to chat or just needs someone to listen, sometimes listening is the best thing you can do for someone. 😊
