Hello, my name is Caitlin. I've had symptoms of depression since I was in 5th grade, but I wasn't officially diagnosed until I was 14. I'm an aspiring writer who likes to dabble with digital graphics and imagery (and is addicted to Photoshop). I'm at my fourth semester of community college and will hopefully get my AoA this year.





Major depression has been with me for nearly 10 years, but just recently I was diagnosed with possible Pure-O OCD. Needless to say this has not helped anything. But with medication, therapy and support I hope to overcome these hurdles. Thanks for having a site like this!

If you wish to contact me outside Depressiontribe, my AIM name is GiveMeEternity, my Yahoo! name is SilentAria18, my MSN messenger name is caitlin_gouge, and my Skype name is caitlin.gouge. I'm on MSN and Yahoo the most, so come chat if you would like! And by the way, hit on me and I will destroy you- kthanx.
