I like hanging with good people. Spending time with my baby boy. Going to the mall , playing pool, singing. I also enjoy listening to rock music, wathcing HBO's In Treatment. I like comedies and horror flicks also animation movies (yes I'm a Disney fan). I like to write poetry and paint. Among other things these are the ones I enjoy the most!

Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI had a verbally abusive mother, a father who was never there for me at all. I was molested as a child and raped at age 18. I was in a very verbally abussive relationship with my ex for 4 years before I left him. I have low self esteem which leads me to be co dependant. I also suffer from anxiety. I have currently in treatment and I've been hospitalized several times for attempted suicide. I'm am working very hard to improve my faults for my son and for myself that's about it.
