Hello,
I am 25 year old male from Georgia and in seek of advise. I have had a problematic past and things are starting to resurface.
I am interested in what you think and look forward to talking in the forums.
Some background:
I moved to Georgia from Wisconsin when I was 12 years old and during my mid teens started abusing alcohol and drugs and had a not so stable relationship with my parents.
After ending up on meth amphetamines and abusing for roughly 5 years I quit and decided to make a change in my life.
Shortly after I graduated from college with an associates degree and landed a nice job in which I still hold today. I have excelled to almost an extreme.
Since quiting drugs I have had a never ending thirst for knowledge and experiences and I always want more, more, more. People that are around me are never good enough and I don't understand why others don't feel the same way. I feel most of the time that I am better than most people. I get angry because of this a lot of times.
I am a neat freak. Everything around me should be kept clean and tidy. Small things annoy me and drive me insane like if a door is half open or closed or the lid is left off of something.
My symptoms:
Racing thoughts
Anxiety
Violence
Elevated Mood
Depression
Irritability
Obsessions
Addictions to various things
Mood swings
Constant analytical thinking
Antisocial
Want for constant change
Strong desire for unique experiences
Thats a nutshell of what I am dealing with and I hope to find help here and in the company of others going through similar things. If you have any quick advice for me I am all ears or if you just want to say hey, that would be fine too.
See ya around the forums.
