    About Me

    I'm currently a student on leave from Brown University. I live at home now trying to get my life straight and maybe figure out what it is I really want to do. I love the theater and acting is my passion above all else. Otherwise, I'm a pretty simple straightforward kind of person. [=

    • Close Depression - Teen

      I've been dealing with up and down depression since I was a freshman. I used to deal with it by cutting/burning and used to see school counselors when things got really unbearable. Recently, I took a leave from college after a failed suicide attempt and am currently in therapy.

      Treatments

      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Counseling has always been more of a temporary escape for me. It's nice talking to a neutral, objective person, but it really only helps me WHILE I'm talking. After I usually don't feel a whole lot better
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      Having people that care always seems to cheer me up and give me motivation to do well with my life. But those people can't be there with me 24/7 and being alone for long periods of time seems to just break me down even more.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      Like counseling, talking with someone only seems to help for the few minutes while it happens.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Exercising til the only thing I can think about is how tired I am seems the be the only thing that takes my mind off the lonliness.
    • Close Teen Sexuality

      Ever since the first time it's been fucking me over (so to speak...) with my relationships. And yet I somehow always want it. Ugh.

    • Open Healthy Eating

      I need need NEED to start eating healthier. I know that KFC and Subway really don't cut it, but somehow fast food and crap is all I seem to eat.

      Treatments

      Organic Diet Considering
      I really want to start eating pure organic and kick fast/junk food for good. I don't really know where to start though.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      When I get up the motivation to do it, does wonders for how my body/mind feel.
    • Open Physical & Emotional Abuse

      I've been cutting/burning to deal with my problems for four years. Doesn't get more simple than that.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Disuades me from doing it but doesn't take my mind off it.
      Talking Working / Worked
      Same effect as counseling.
