After another sleepless night up until 3 in the morning talking with my girlfriend, we've made the decision to look to the outside world and see if there's anyone out there who suffer the way we do!
I guess this is a thread to introduce myself so I'll save the juicy bits for another thread. I'll be introducing the both of us (my girlfriend and I) since I'll be referring to my girlfriend often and will probably be talking for her in many situations on this account.
Me:
I am a 24 year old Biology student attending university for undergraduate studies. I have no idea what grade I'm technically in because I'm a transfer student, but I guess I should be about 2nd or 3rd year level. I have plans to minor in Chemistry as well! I don't have a job anymore and my mother supports me, along with student loans. I have an explanation for this laziness but this is not the thread for it! When I'm not studying I am cleaning, writing with my girlfriend, or painting. I haven't done the hobbies I love for quite some time now, so I'm not so sure how true that last bit is anymore.
My girlfriend:
She's 23, and a social work major at the same university. Her life's goal is to work with retired military and transitioning back to civilian life; she feels as if she wants to be more of a psychologist than a social worker per se but the university we are attending has a very bad psychology program. She has the most anxiety out of the both of us, manifesting itself in several ways: general anxiety, social anxiety, separation anxiety...this is just stuff we've looked up on the internet. It sounds like she's a textbook case.
Oh my goodness, I don't even know what to say. Would you believe I've been sitting here for an hour and a half typing out novel-length paragraphs and deleting them? I don't know what's "too much" text. I don't know where to start. I'll just go read some other threads and see what you guys have to say, maybe I can get some pointers on how long my posts need to be from there. Thank you for making this forum possible!
