So, I have a project for a class I'm taking where I have to conduct at least four interviews, some of which need to be done online. The interview is about social media usage. If anyone wants to help me out with this, send me a message and I will respond with the questions. Oh, and b.t.w...

Hey ya'll. So I found this article posted on Facebook: Are North American Women Really THAT Bad? | Taken by the Wind | Taken by the Wind I have no problem with the article, but the comments... Holy sh*t. Just read some of them! If I didn't know any better, I'd say that equality in...

Seems like I just don't get all that anxious much anymore in social situations (or in general, for that matter). If I do feel anxiety, it's such a small amount that I don't even notice it. I wonder if doing extracurricular work for the campus paper is the reason for this disappearance. On the...

It's been over a week, probably about two weeks, since I quit taking my daily 20mg of fluoxetine (brand name Prozac) cold turkey. I haven't experienced any withdrawal symptoms, and I've yet to go back to the large amount of mood swings and overreactions I had before going on the medication. Best...

I haven't written anything in months and want to get back into the routine, so I've decided to create this new journal. Since July I've had all these thoughts floating around inside my head and I'm at the point where I need to release them. So without further ado... Lately, I've been thinking...

Lately I've been wondering if I have more than just severe social anxiety. Obviously, I tend to isolate myself and get nervous in social situations (which leads me to avoid them altogether sometimes). I've had trouble with even basic interactions and my social anxiety has even severed...

Hate to break it to you, Mother, but I don't think I want this whole medication thing to be temporary. So what if I wanna have these feelings of content all the time? It's better than being the emotional maniac I was before.

I kinda would like to meet up with you.

For a while, I've been feeling under the weather, and today I spiraled down suddenly. It's been a while since I've been legitimately depressed. My therapist is probably going to wonder what happened since the last time I saw her, because in many of my past sessions, I've been in a decent mood...

I think I have both of those. And I think they may have just driven this guy away from me. I'm finding that I'm afraid to open up when it comes to dating, because I'm scared of getting hurt again. I told this guy I'm dating that, and I don't think he was too happy with it. He thought it was...

That's how it appears to look lately. Forget school, socializing, dating, hobbies, and keeping my apartment clean. I'll procrastinate on all of that in favor of job searching. In a way, I feel like I'm starting to define my worth based on how much I work. Since that isn't much at the moment, I...

I've been applying for various photography jobs and paid internships so that I'll have some job security by the time I graduate in about two months. Last night, I applied for some jobs, and today I got a response back from one of them. It's a paid internship for a small fashion photography...

This is something that I've always had a problem with. I struggled with it when I first started dating, it put a damper on my last relationship, and now that I'm trying to get back into dating, it's popping up again. I've been trying to talk to various guys on this site I'm on, and I managed to...

Sometimes I miss you.

This is kinda long, but I feel the need to get this out there. It's something that I've observed about myself for a while now, and these are just some thoughts I have on that observation. Sometimes I think that I shouldn’t be complaining, that I should just shut up and count my blessings...

When it comes to choosing someone to date, are you picky at all? Are there certain criteria (physical and/or personality) that you find most of the sex you're attracted to lacking? If someone asks you out, do you end up turning them down because they are not your type? I would say that, yes, I...

I wish knowing that you're with someone else didn't kill me on the inside so much, but it does. Can you blame me?

This is something that's been really bringing me down since some time back in October (well, I felt it a bit before, but it came full force in early to mid-October). I can't seem to go one day without feelings of hatred and resentment towards my ex popping up. They can pop up any time, anywhere...

Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale I figured I'd share this. My score was 17, which is in the normal range, though it's just 2 points shy of being low. Guess I really do have "middle ground self-esteem."

Portrait of a _portrait I figured I'd start one of these, just for the hell of it, and to see what others think of the things that come to my mind as well. I'll start by posting a journal entry I wrote earlier. Lately I’ve been asking myself the question, “What is a real friend?” I’ve been...
