Iam a shy person but Iam warm to others, Iam a single mum of a 16 year old, We live in England, I have been suffering from Depersonalization a feeling of being trapped in my self and numb emotions mind going blank also dissociation which is a state of acute mental decompensation in which certain thoughts, emotions, sensations, and/or memories are compartmentalized, I have this due to a childhood trama when I was nine, also Depression and anxiety since I was 18 and have recently been diagnosed with emotionaly unstable personality disorder,avoident personality, I also have little self confidence ,I have only just started getting the help for my self 4 years ago after the suicide of my brother who also suffered with his mental health,I know my life sounds as if has and is ruled by mental health issues and family tramas but thats the way it has turned out for me I guess I have just excepted what has happened in my life and I have set my mind in not letting my issues get me down I have my pessimistic days but have decided in my brothers memory that I have to fight for my life, and also the love of my 16year old son also helps,I try to keep my self busy volunteering at a homless shelter, I would like to meet others who suffer from these debiletating conditions as to make friends and support others. I find this difficult writing about my self as I am only just starting to learn about my self my likes and dislikes. I have just finished a two year course of psycotherapy 3days a week, and so I am a bit mixed up still sifting through what I have learnt about my self, it has been a helpfull experience it just has took lot out of me


I like going on country walks in the sunshine not that it lifts my mood much but it does blow away some of the cobwebs and allows me to spend time with my family, astonomy, chinese food, listening to music, I love dragonflies such beutiful creatures also like, birds and a strange thing walking in the rain and thunder storms.waterfalls,sunsets,waves on a beach,snow and general nature

exercise in the gym, my depression, my anxiety,self harm, marmite, meat Iam a vegetarian. people that are cruel to others, Moths and flies in the house.

Hi Stella, Thanks for your comment. Sorry I haven't been in touch lately. I've not been on DT so often and for the last week I've had problems connecting to the net. It seems that I can go on for a short while then I can't do anything more. Anyway, yes Christmas was OK. It wasn't too great but it was better than usual and I enjoyed seeing my Nan on Christmas Day. Usually we have to go to her place in Brum but this time my dad brought her down here! I'll let you know in more detail soon how things have been with me but I've generally been better at dealing with my negative thoughts though I've had quite a few things go wrong lately. It looks as though I'll never get the help I need from the NHS but that's another story. The worst thing dor me at the moment is that I've caught a cold or flu or something so I feel terrible at the moment. Anyway I'm glad to read you enjoyed Christmas Day and I hope you have a great New Year! Best wishes, Steve
