Default Hello from Australia

Hi All

My name is Song. I'm 23 and I live in Mandurah, Western Australia. I have a 5 year old son who is currently in preschool and I work in marketing and study anthropology in uni.

I first stumbled across here from a link from galadarling.com and I love it. My dream is to quit my job and start a jewelry making business based on magical symbols (I'm also a witch). I'm coming across a lot of opposition, especially from my partner and my parents, but I'll get there.

It's also important to me to finish my degree at uni. I love history, anthropology and archeology and can't wait to travel the world learning about cultures from this time and the past.

I have suffered from depression since I was 10, acute anxiety disorder since I was 14 and I was a cutter from when I was 12 until last year. At the moment I am trying EFT and zoloft and a heap of spiritualist studies which help me accept myself, but not my situation, and give me the motivation to change things.

Speak to you all soon
Much Love
~song

Welcome to the forums Song!

If you are interested in the biological basis of depression and information on supplements, I made an earlier post about it here:

I don't know if this belongs here.

The post was meant for someone feeling suicidal, but a lot of the recommendations apply to depression & anxiety too.

I wear short shorts and a wife beater singlet. I must be Australian!
No really i am australian, and i love it.
Im new to this site too, this spiritual development idea is awesome. I too have experianced depression for as long as i can remember. But this site will help.
I dunno bout you but i actualy feel like ive got meaning in my life for once. To grow and become the best person i can be. Im sure itll become a more expansive idea once i get to know and understand myself better. But even a vague idea of the direction i want to go in with my life is a huge step to happyness.
Welcome to a more positive future.
