    About Me

    I'm a 20 year old college student and grunt labor employee here in Albuquerque. I have depression and what my therapist refers to as Borderline Personality Disorder, although this is a fairly recent "development, " and I'm not even familiar with what that entails... time to do some research. I also struggle with pretty rough eating issues, going through cycles of starvation followed by a period of binging... it's fun.

    Interests

    I love music, my dog, books and movies, and all that jazz. I like exercising when I can get myself up and out. I like going to shows, eating sushi, and meeting new people.

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have suffered for about 4 years with significant depression and an eating disorder. Ashamedly, I've made a few suicide attempts - I really just want to get better and see progress. I'm sick of being stagnant.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
      Lexapro was somewhat helpful for me, and after I stopped taking it recently, I did notice a significant downturn in my mood :(
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Terrible - two suicide attempts while on fluoxetine
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      DBT - dialectical behavior therapy - was pretty effective for me.
    • Close Healthy Eating

    • Open Fitness Goals
      Type: Be the best you can be

      I am a 20 year old student struggling with an eating disorder and desperately seeking the middle ground as I see it: a combination of healthy eating (i.e. eating enough, but not too much) and EXERCISE - that's been the missing component. Looking for pointers in terms of motivation, routines, etc. for people who are not intrinsically driven to exercise daily.

      Uh... title of the community speaks for me I think :(
