    About Me

    I am a student in the UK with an asian background and find it very difficult to concentrate on my study. Having distance from home brings me a lot of issues and childhood memories that might have been abusive(I'm still not sure). I believe I am changing and whatever I'm going through now is meant to happen, and that I will gain passion towards my field and I will regain fulfillment in learning new languages, new instruments, reading books non-stop etc. ;)

      Feeling good book by David Burns is helping me stop thinking negatively, which is pretty cool.

      Still doing very little work though..

    • Close Sexual Abuse

      I am starting to believe I was abused by my dad,but it is so very unclear, I am still confused. I know he loves me and cares about me,but sometimes his disires of intimacy was intrusive. I don't think his intension was to abuse me at all and that's why I feel guilty about labeling him that way. I've confronted both my parents at the same time and my mom cried a bit, but then said"How dare you think that" My dad got cross with her for that and said he was sorry,but I feel like nothing is solved.

      Treatments

      Leave Working / Worked
      Can't really say this was a treatment, since the primary reason to leave was to study, but having a distance from home does give me space to work on mySELF!
      Reiki Not Working
      I've only had it once, and nothing happened. If it weren't that expensive, I would have had some more gos, but well..
      \"The Courage To Heal\" Working / Worked
    • Close Family Issues

      Having distance from family after some 25 years, now I am starting to address issues from my childhood, which distress me NOW.

    • Open Female Sexual Issues

      I've had an abusive parent and thought it'd be a miracle if anyone wanted me as a woman (other than my father). I actually felt 'relieved' at the age of 15 when a schoolboy stroked my bottom feeling eroused in a rush-hour bus when I was going to school. I thought a miracle had happened when I had my first boyfriend at 20 but didn't have a healthy relationship. I met a lot of other men since then - even some abusive ones (or I was letting them be in charge)

    • Open Impotence & Erectile Dysfunction

      My boyfriend has asthma and apparantly it causes ED. I want to help, but all he says is he needs to be more careful on his diet so the asthma would get better. It's as if there isn't a 'real' answer to it. We've made love properly last summer for the last time, as far as I remember, and he hasn't ejaculated since. I really do love him and wish we could have a good sexual relationship, especially for his self-esteem as well.

    • Open Eczema

      I've been suffering from symtoms of atopic eczema (SEVERE itchiness and dryness) since I was 8 and I've got it fairly under control now with a fasting retreat and subsequent restricted diet, but I have been to all sorts of doctors, even tried various korean medicine (for some reason this skin condition has become very common in south korea) Still need to pay close attention I'm sooooooo glad I'm not suffering as much as I did before. I think god has blessed me at last.

    • Open Multiple Personalities

      I have a whole set of family of 3 generations in my head with mostly highly gifted and very attractive personalities. I never tell anyone about these 'people', but every time I think about them, which is nearly all the time, I feel really good. A bit like playing SIMS but much better cuz I can control everything.
