Newbie here~

[Mercie]

Hey, I'm Mercie. (Don't feel comfortable sharing my real name yet..)

I'm 19 and I live in the UK (although I guess that isn't really a big surprise).

I have been diagnosed with Social Anxiety Disorder but the treatment didn't work, which has lead me to believe it may have 'grown' and bubbled over into other areas of my life - I am almost always anxious. =/

I was diagnosed when I was 16, and had a pretty good year after that (I thought the treatment had worked and all that), but things have gradually declined and it feels like I'm back where I started.

So, I'm here to meet new friends, get some advice from like-minded people and possibly to help others. I intend to try, at the very least.

Thank you for having me. =)
