Hey there!
Here is my history in a nutshell...33 year old wife of almost 8 years, mom of 2 months, RN for 3 years, before that I was still trying to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up...so lots of school, and worked for a few start up companies doing HR, admin, acct, etc for 6 years. I have been diagnosed with ADD, and Major depression, been on meds for depression since nursing school, and meds for ADD for a year, then off for a year (due to pregnancy) and just started again.
It is funny, when I tell people I a depressed, or intraverted, or shy, they laugh at me. Esp those that knew me when I was in my teenage and early twenties. Life and my lousy choice in men did a number on the self esteem (well I guess I can't really blame them, we are suppossed to have controll over our own feelings) :confuse: has left me with a poor self esteem. It is sad to remember how "you used to be" (and with out meds, too). Anywhoo....no pitty party.
I am really looking forward to working with this program and helping and working with others that have the same issues I do. My poor hubby, bless his soul, but he just doesn't get it...and I have alienated myself from all of my friends, that it is weird to talk to them about it.
