(Web Master & Founder) :
Hello, My name is Nathan as you might already know and I am 23 years
old. For as long as I can remember I have been struggling with
depression even as a child. When I was 15 my mother commited suicide
which forever changed my life and way of thinking. When I was 17 I
started hurting my self in several ways, some physical, some emotional.
Cutting has been my main weakness in coping with feelings I have had. I
am now 23, starting my degree in psychology so I can one day make my
actual living on helping other people cope with some of the feelings and
problems I have had to deal with my self. I still self-injure from time
to time but things have really taken a turn for the best over the past
year. If you have any comments or questions feel free to contact me at nathan@att.net
Kay (Co-Founder) : Hi, I’m Kay and I’m 20 years old. I’ve been rather depressed for about the past 3 years. There are many seemingly small reasons for my depression, and the fact that I have hidden it almost the entire time does not make it better. Nearly a year ago I started hurting myself because it helped me cope with things. Right now I am not as depressed as I have been at times in the past, but I have my downs just like everyone else. I am usually around quite a bit if you ever want to talk or anything. Remember, you’re not alone. UPDATE: Last year Kay went off to start a new section of her life. She is still around from time to time but is unable to return any email sent her way. With out her a lot of this would have never became a reality. I wish her the best of luck with her new life. |
