hiya, i think i am really starting to like this forum already! it's got much more character than most anxiety forums and i love the games section and chat rooms! and this smiley - :flowers:
anywho, about me! Well, i'm 21 - nearly 22 - and a guy, I live in Orpington which is Kent (in the UK) and my anxiety kinda makes my head usually quite hazy, nervous and susceptable to panic... i find it hard to relax at the moment and am usually tense :(
it's not very nice as it really started while i was at uni with too much stress and things, and both my parents are quite stressed busy people and that made me worry more and feel more on edge and tense.
the thing is that by nature i am actually quite happy-go-lucky and i really love just experiencing things and seeing the world and enjoying life. I love hot weather and natural surroundings, I have a quite a hippy side in me! I really like groups and charities working for good things like CND and Greenpeace and Amnesty and things, and support them when I can. I also love ethical and environmentally friendly living and fair trade. I'm not veggie at the moment though... maybe later... i love true organic food though it's gorgeous :)
what else... I love learning about politics and conspiracy theories too, linux computing... i love music (quite a wide range but recently lots of ska punk and world music... and 60s stuff and kinda artistic light rock too, as well as sometimes soothing music like oriental and meditative... it depends on my mood i guess). I really want to learn the trombone or sax or something so i can play some Less Than Jake :)
I also like talking too much... hehe :) I have quite an interest in anthropology (actually was doing it at uni until i had to drop out due to anxiety) and eastern religions such as taoism and love things like tai chi and meditation.
ok, i'm going to stop now! thanks for reading and i look forward to getting to know you all!
