    About Me

    I am a 26 yo IT professional. I have joined this site mainly as a support to two very good friends. While talkig to one, I may also ail from a similar affliction. I have no professional diagnosis. I do have my share of problems. Many are minor in comparison to other's. But I also am in need of help. I'm never gonna get it if I don't ask. I figure it's worth a shot. Maybe I can help a few others in the process of my own healing.

    Interests

    Feeling good and finding peace with myself, other's , and life in general.

    • Close Depression

      I was diagnosed many years ago as a child with severe depression. I found out why, confronted the problem, and returned to my mental health. I'm trying to not let this bullshit come back.

      Treatments

      Positive Thinking Not Working
      I am self-defeatist. All attempts thus far have failed.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Put on it as a child, worked in the beginning, but effects faded quickly
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      As a child, I was able to gain strength to confront the source of my depression.
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      My family is too close to me to really see or listen. My friends are amazing, but in the end it's up to me.
      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      Helps during the writing, but not much afterwards.
