Hello everyone, just found this forum yesterday and thought I'd give it a go ^^;
Let's see, about me... Well, I'm 17, female, diagnosed depression, insomnia, and anxiety, as well as Functional Abdominal Pain (basically, your abdominal organs are functioning, but you're in pain and we don't know why!) which I'll have had for 5 years in August. I'm also reasonably certain I've got some sort of schizophrenia/schizo-effective/personality disorder, but I knew well enough to hide that from doctors and therapists as they would tell my parents. I have an older sister who's schizo-effective and my mother treats her, well... Not pleasantly, let's leave it there.
Moving past what's wrong with me, I love to draw, write, sing, and play video games. I'm pansexual, furry, and don't quite identify with standard gender roles, but still (mostly) identify as female. My avatar is my "fursona", drawn by me.
I hope that this site can provide me with some sort of solace, advice, etc. as I'm trying to figure out where to go in my life, but with everything the way it is now, I'm feeling lost.
One thing I have to say right off the bat: Yes, I'm young. There are many things out there I don't know, and I'm very much wanting the advice of people more experienced with these sorts of issues than I am. However, please don't treat me as beneath you for my age. I've experienced this on so many occasions and it's one of a small number of things that just bothers me beyond belief...
Aside from that, I'm open to all manner of comments and advice and look forward to getting to know you all
