Feeling:		- Ok
Gender:	Female
Age:	20
Interests: Reading, writing, photography, dogs, going for walks with my trusty ipod : ) I love spending time with my family and meeting new people.
About Me: My name is Lauren. I'm currently taking the semester off from school while I try to figure things out. I think I will probably be taking next semester off as well. I'm still dealing with the death of my younger brother. He died of leukemia two years ago. Ever since my life has not been the one I wanted to live. I want things to get better. I guess I'm just hoping to find people to talk to who know what I'm going through.

Loss of a Sibling

My brother died of cancer two years ago. He had leukemia. He was 15 when he was diagnosed and about five months before he died he had a bone marrow transplant. I was his donor. Ever since he died I have been spiraling out of control. I left my college and am back living at home. Its very hard to talk to my family about this and I haven't worked up enough courage to go talk to someone professional. So here I am.

Depression

I'm dealing with a lot in my life right now. Most of which is a result from my brother's death two years ago. I have a hard time talking to my family, and cannot bring myself to talk to someone professional, but I know I needed to do something so here I am.

Healthy Relationships

I want to make sure I enter into future relationships for the right reasons and that even while I am going through all this other stuff that I appreciate the ones I have now.
