      some of my pastime hobbies are hiking and running. I also like to practice martal arts and yoga. Though the hiking can be stressful to my knees. I learned to mederate the frequency of hiking. I nowfocus more on calisthenics.

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Treatments

      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      Meditation and hypnotherapy. They both work very well.
      Writing Working / Worked
      Writing benefits me greatly.
    • Open Physical & Emotional Abuse

      When I was six I was the class clown. Being that didn't mix well with my home life. So I was beaten for it.

      Treatments

      I learned a lot during the time spent in groups. That is all it did...
    • Open Personality Disorders
      Type: Histrionic Personality Disorder

      I suffered abuse as a child and felt totally alone. The abuse started when I was six years old. I was an only child living with one parent and my grandparents. When they went on vacation I felt completely abandoned. The time my grandparents vacationed for was a period of 3 months. . When I acted out for attention I received more head games and abuse. This cycle went on for years until I was twelve. I was finally able to physically and intellectually fight back.

      Treatments

      Emotions Anonymous (EA) Working / Worked
      I spent a brief time going to EA. The time spent in that group was helpful. I had a crush on the leader of the group. I lost focus and eventually left.
      Hypnotherapy Working / Worked
      I am still working with hypnotherapy every day. It works well for me. I found that I need to practice with it each day for the full effectiveness to reside.
    • Open Multiple Personalities

      I have avoided my underlying difficulties for most of my life. About two years ago when I moved away from my family, I began to uncover alot of repressed emotions. That is when I began to heal.

      I am in the very best of hands now. I go to groups therapy three days a week.
