    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I was badly abused as a child right up until the point that I moved to england, and once i got out of the abuse is when the depression set in badly.

      Treatments

      Prozac Not Working
      Hope thats how it is spelled, its a form of prozac apparently
    • Close Asthma
      Type: Adult Asthma

      I've had asthma since I was born apparently, and it has only got worse since I have got older instead of better.

      Treatments

      Albuterol Working / Worked
      Inhaler Working / Worked
      I am on 3 inhalors. I have to take my reliever a lot to even help at all when i get bad, but it doesnt seem to calm it down that much no matter how much i take.
      Singulair Too Soon to Tell
    • Open Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
      Type: Relapsing-remitting MS

      Took the docs awhile to figure it out because MS BIH and Epilepsy all kicked off at the same time, so they had to figure out it was more than one illness then do test to find out what they were. MS is scarry sometimes when i wake up unable to move. But I still would rather it be me than anyone else.

    • Open Epilepsy & Seizures

      It took the docs awhile to figure out I had epilepsy because I also have MS and BIH on top of that and they all kicked off at the same time. So they were trying to pin it to one illness then discovered that I had more than one. I have had 2 seizures and the last one I had i stopped breathing and turned blue.

      Treatments

      Lamictal Working / Worked
      I havent had a seizure since i've been on this medicine
    • Open Back Pain

      have had back injuries from abuse as a kid and i also have a trapped nerve atm

      Treatments

      Codeine Working / Worked
      It helps a little, but not fully and doesnt last long.
    • Open Obesity

      I've never ate much, dont like chocolate (makes me feel ill) and yet have always been over weight. The doctors say I have a very mild case of hypothyroidism but not bad enough to require the shots for it, so I am just overweight and have pretty much no appetite.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      My dad, brother, and their friends use to abuse and rape me from the age of about 6 or 7.

    • Open Psoriasis
      Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the Skin

      my psoriasis isnt too bad, i have it in my ears on my head. Very itchy at times though, and i dont mind it on my head as much because my hair covers it, but I hate that its in my ears.

    • Open Self-Injury

      I cut myself a lot to cause physical pain instead of emotional pain. And also I do it because I feel as if everything is my fault and I need punished for it. Most ppl that know me dont know i do it though. I make sure to do it places they can't see

    • Open Insomnia

      When I try to sleep I end up just laying there unable to go to sleep, and when i do fall asleep i wake up about half an hour later. Usually because I have bad nightmares that wake me.

    • Open Families & Friends of Gays & Lesbians

      I have a few different friends that are gay. One of them call me their little sister. I dont mind at all that they are gay or lesbian, I think its their choice, whatever makes them happy :/

    • Open Anemia
      Type: Iron Deficiency Anemia

      They found out that I have Anemia while they were testing me when pregnant. They said after I gave birth it may go away, but it didnt, and on the test they did not long ago it shows that my iron count has got lower than it was orig.

      Treatments

      They keep upping the amount I take in a day because it still isnt giving me enough iron, atm I am on 6 iron pills a day
