Stuff from me

A girl with stuff to say.

I suppose you want to know about me. Hmm. Well, I am a girl. I have stuff to say.

What else? Let's see. I'm a Mormon (technically not our real name, but whatever.) I'm an INTJ. I wish I was a musician and a scientist and a professor but I'm not any of those things right now.

I am currently diagnosed with ADHD-Combined, Avoidant Personality Disorder (or just Social Anxiety, depending,) Bipolar II Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (or maybe just OCPD?) and Trichotillomania. Maybe Panic Disorder with Agoraphobia, or alternatively Agoraphobia without Panic (I do get panic attacks, but they're not the reason I'm scared to go places.) My therapist thinks I might have PTSD but I don't want to agree with her. I just gave up on DBT and am switching back (I hope) to some kind of mix of psychodynamic & supportive & CBTish stuff. Emphasis on the flexibility. I hate DBT. I don't mind acronyms, though.

I like science fiction and fantasy way too much. I went to Comic-Con before it was super-cool, read Star Trek novels back when that made you a real nerd, and own a Slytherin scarf, a hand-carved wand, a lightsabre, a calligraphy kit, and an AlphaSmart 2000. I compete in NaNoWriMo every year, and have a user number well below 50,000.

I'm trying very hard to both be honest and anonymous here. And I'm also extremely strange. So, bear with me if things seem a little off-kilter.

I am currently permitted to apologize, but I'm trying to avoid it because I have a bad habit of apologizing for everything. So just accept a virtual hug from me and go in peace, knowing I'm swallowing that word which wants to come out due to guilt that's kind of not rational.

Press Forward Saints

Press forward, Saints, with steadfast faith in Christ,
With hope’s bright flame alight in heart and mind,
With love of God and love of all mankind.

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
