About Me
I was diagnosed with major depression two years ago. I was put onto anti-depressants and saw a therapist weekly. After 6 months everything seemed to be back to normal and I felt 'fine' again.
Unfortunately I think it's slowly coming back. One day I will have a major boost of inspiration and then other days I get side tracked and feel very low. My mind is on the go 24/7 but it's all negative thoughts. I change my mind all the time and can't seem to pick some kind of direction for my future. I have made lists of things I want to do and deep down I know what to do but I never seem to plunge forward into actually doing it.
My previous relationship was very painful and this was one of the biggest contributors to my negative, sad life. I am struggling to meet someone as I have this fear of relationships, doubled with low self esteem. I hate compliments and over the years I seem to have developed these very strong mindsets about myself. I smoke and drink and absolutely hate it with a passion and would love to stop. My dog is one of my best friends. She is blind and gives me huge inspiration (on positive days)
I am looking for a new life a change. I want a full, busy and positive life. I need help to overcome my fears and pain. I want to be fit, healthy and happy again. I enjoy reading these stories and quotes and they do lift my spirit. I'm almost there....
