Open Depression - Teen

I'm manic depressive, which also ties in with my bipolar problem. It started a long time ago, but really got worse about a year ago, and it's just been downhill from there.

Treatments

Art Somewhat Helpful

I draw a lot of pictures, and use pastels and charcoal. It helps vent some emotion.

Celexa Too Soon to Tell

Music Somewhat Helpful

Psychotherapy Not Working

God damn councellor is only making things worse.

Talking Working / Worked

I have my two closest friends, Ben and Gabi, and I tell them about anything and everything, and they really are the reason I'm still alive right now. They help me so much, it's incredible.

Writing Somewhat Helpful

I write a lot of short stories, poetry and other types of fiction. It helps calm me down and I feel a lot better after writing something I'm proud of.

Open Bisexuality

There's not much to say. I noticed at an early age that I was simply more attracted to girls, yet attracted to the small handful of guys. I'm semi-open, I don't care if people know, and if people ask, I proudly tell them. But I never dare tell my parents; they would disown me in an instant.

Open Self-Injury

This had been an on-going problem, or rather addiction, for the past year and a half. I have somewhat of a bloodlust; I relish the pain. It started hurting a lot less a long time ago. In a twisted way, it takes my pain away. Unfortunately, my entire left arm is covered in scars, from shoulder to mid-forearm. I'm slowly resisting the urge, but everytime I break down, I always resort to it.

Talking Working / Worked

Ben and Gabi are slowly helping me stop, and being with them takes away the urge. I'm slowly breaking the habit.

Open Abstinence & Celibacy

I'm Genophobic, meaning I'm afraid of sex.

Open Insomnia

I have a very hard time sleeping, in 3 days, I'll probably only have slept 8 hours or less. I sometimes go days without sleeping.
