Hi there, I am 23 and from Minnesota and I struggle with a few mental illnesses. I have been diagnosed with GAD, Bipolar I, Panic Disorder, and Agoraphobia. I take 45mg Remeron, 50mg Lamictal, and 150mg Seroquel. I fear the outdoors, public places, people, any crowd, and life in general. I have been doing everything in my power to increase my cognitive ability but my Central Nervous System seems to be compromised at the moment. I have tremors, I sweat a lot, my heartbeat is constantly over 100, and I do not sleep well at all. I also feel as if I am outside of my body for the most part. My problems were minimal until 2008. From 2008 to May 2012 I used all sorts of drugs to cope with these things. Since then I have only smoked pot a few times and tried to go the correct route. I have two college degrees but have been declared medically unable to work because my physiological and mental state are both relatively unstable. Going from working 40 hours a week, taking a full college load and being involved with my school's soccer club in 2007 makes me have hope that I will get there once again. I suppose this is a bump in the road, no?

The main reason I came here was that I want to help others who have similar problems and also to work together to overpower this beast. Let's get crackin'!
