After years of lurking on NG I'm finally making a profile. This is a bigger deal to me than it seems. After 20 years of struggling with anxiety and depression I'm finally pushing myself through this. I'm going out there and showing myself to the world! It's scary as hell. I feel vulnerable and naked, but this is for the best... I think :)

So... you were struggling with anxiety and depression since you were 9? Jesus fuck, man.

I was homeschooled until 9 and suddenly dropped into public school with no warning and no idea how to socialize. In the years that followed, my parents would continue flipping me between the two with only a year between to make friends. Often changing schools in the process. I don't blame all my problems on that, but I can trance the beginnings to that first time.
