Hey ladies!
It feels good to be back on one of these with you, I'm not gonna lie. It's bringing forward all this 2006 RP nostalgia.
Anyway updates on me:
I'm doing well. I'm still living in CA. I am licensed nurse, though I'm not working at the moment because I'm in school to become an MOAA (medical office administrative assistant). I've been unable to find suitable work as a nurse around my area, but have seen so many listings for an MOAA (and they get paid better, so...).
Mentally, I'm doing okay. If I recall correctly, I was in a very dark place the last time I was on a site with you. I'm doing much better, thankfully. I don't think depression is something that ever goes away, but I'm no longer harming or making plans to hurt myself so that's good. Sometimes I do get into depressive moods for a few weeks, but I try to cope.
I think that's it, but if you want to know more or want to chat, let me know!
I'm still on Facebook and on Tumblr, and I still have a skype account and g+ for video chats if anyone is ever interested. Just ask for the info or check my profile!
Oh! I'm on snapchat if anyone else is too: munecadetrapo!

Hey ladies! I'm doing some spring cleaning and found two shirts I'm willing to get rid of. I bought them in 2012 at San Diego Comic Con. They're a size Women's Large, measuring across the chest at approx. 18 in across and its about 25 in in length. WOuld anyone be interested? They're both navy blue. One with a Doctor Who logo (in the shape of a box) and the other is an 'I AM SHERLOCKED" shirt. They've both been worn twice. And I'll wash and iron them before shipping them off, if anyone does want them. Images below

Update:
Wow, it's been so long! I'm so sorry it's taken that long to get me back here. I hope others can drop by and update too. I miss you ladies! Hope everything is well with you.
So I'm twenty-five now. WOW. I never thought I'd see the day -- literally, I was attempting suicide in my teens. Anyway, things have been rough on my side. My parents lost their jobs and my grandfather passed away this summer. My sister and I are both working full time and attempting to finish our final year at school. I got a job at my college, actually. I'm the Dean's assistant.
But I'm otherwise well. I hope you all are too.

(TW: depression, suicide and self-harm mention)
Hi everyone!
I hope whoever is reading is well! Updates on my life: My parents did find new jobs, but now we hardly ever see each other (they have third shift three nights a week). I'm graduating this June! It feels so good to finally be done. Well, until I can figure out how to pay for my next degree. I'm still working with the dean. I absolutely love it - despite the deadline stress. Everyone thinks I'm a computer whiz and it boosts my ego. ;)
I finally went to the doctor about some pain I've been having. Turns out I have diabetes, high cholesterol, and pcos. We're still waiting to hear about the thyroid, but I don't think that will be an issue. There's no history of it in my family, but we'll see, I suppose.
This 30th marks my official 5-year anniversary since I tried to commit suicide. It feels like a victory, but I can't help but think things might have been better if I had succeeded. I'm on antidepressants again (doc just wants me to be safer this spring - that's when I usually get worse) but I know depression is something I'll be dealing with for the rest of my life.
Anyway, I'm still alive and kicking. No bad thoughts. No harming. Other than the health issues above, I'm well. Hope you are too. Until next time.
<3

Update: No thyroid problems, yayyy! I've also lost around 10 lbs, which for me is amazing! I'm starting to not fit into a few items of clothing.
If anyone is heading to Cali anytime soon for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Hollywood, please let me know! We'll make a day of it. :)
I have yet to go, actually, but will be going in July!
