Hello, I guess. Do people read this? Sure some must.
I don't even know if I belong here.
My name is Buffy (well its a nickname). I came here following a rather.. Intense worrying session. I feel guilty for unloading all my crap into my boyfriend so maybe this will be good for me. I hope it will be.
Maybe some background information will be good. Well, I've had a history of depression, self-harm and a very mild eating disorder. I am currently in my last year of college, I've applied to several universities, hoping to study psychology. I'm not sure if I would be able to cope with it all though.
I struggle a lot with my thoughts, they race and are often extremely black and white (although I am able to rationalise most things, I just cannot make my body believe what I know). My current counsellor thinks I may have social anxiety, but I don't think it's centred around people, sure I hate it and will avoid crowds and times where attention will be placed on me but I think it's more general anxiety.
I'm at a loss of what to say. I am terribly sorry if I've wasted anyone's time here.
Buffy.

That's even higher than me and Emans role as anxiety hunters. I mean, a hunters cool, but a slayer? You don't mess with those :)

Great things await you young Buffy!

I must say thank you to each and every one of you. I didn't really expect any reply and I've had things that have made me smile more than I have in a long time.

Hi Buffy, Welcome to the forum! I joined this month and what a great choice that was. Plenty of kind and understanding folks around here. Where abouts are you from? Nice to meet you :)

You all are so lovely, I hope you know that.
I don't understand how a few people replying can make me feel so welcome, thank you.
