    BMX freestylin', snowboardin', watchin' and playin' hockey, workin' out, music (rock, hard rock, punk rock, gothic rock, emo, screamo, metal, techno/rave, rap/hip hop, and a little bit of country), video games, reading, writing, instant messaging, swimming, long walks on the beach, fine dining, sitcoms, movies.

    • Close Depression
      Type: Seasonal Affective Disorder

      I suffer from constant depression. The scary thing is I know I don't have it as bad as some people. I didn't just come to this site to reach out. I came to help others too. That's what a community is all about.

      Treatments

      Risperdal Working / Worked
      It made me very tired. It ought to. It's a tranquilizer. Blurred vision, fatigue, needed to sleep 20 mins after taking it, had trouble waking up, even after 12 hours sleep.
    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I'm a Paranoid Schizophrenic so I hope it's okay that I'm joining this community. My ex fiancee was bipolar and had no access to medications because she was from the US and was living with me up in Canada and had no coverage and not a lot of money.

      Treatments

      Haldol Not Working
      It was horrible. I was a complete zombie. I could not function at all. It was even impossible to watch tv. I couldn't focus at all. All I could do was lie still for hours. I stopped taking it right away.
      Risperdal Working / Worked
      I've been taking this for a very long time. It works very well. At first, I kept missing the times when I was supposed to take it and for a week I went without it because I had run out, and got one of those weird headaches, the ones that tell you something bad is happening inside your head.
    • Open Anxiety

      Treatments

      Paxil Working / Worked
      It helped me relax mentally but physically made me very alert. I have none right now and have heard that it is bad for causing heart failure. Not sure if that was a rumor or a proven fact.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
    • Open Schizophrenia

      I was diagnosed with schizophrenia at the age of 22 or 23. It's been a rough road with tethered edges and I haven't killed anybody so I guess I'm doin alright lol

    • Open Breakups & Divorce

      I was betrayed by my fiancee of 2 years, 2 weeks before Christmas in 2006. I left her side in Tennessee to get on a bus back up to Canada and then 3 days later she broke up with me over the phone and 3 months after that, married the other guy and then emailed me, telling me about it.

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Not Working
      One can not forgive being stabbed in the back by a loved one. There's no excuse for it.
      Music Working / Worked
      When I'm feeling really down I can listen to loud music and sing along.
