Hi, I'm Meiloslyther, you can just call me Meilo if you want, and I'm 18 years old.
I've been diagnosed with depression, but I've had another professional tell me that I'm not. I have problems expressing myself completely, and I often feel that people don't understand me because of this. I don't feel depressed, but that's probably got something to do with the fact that I don't know how I feel most of the time. And even when I do know how I feel, I can never find the right words to explain it to someone else.
I have problems concentrating and I get sidetracked easily. (I found this site Googling "trouble expressing self". Probably not the most distracted thing I've ever done, but I think the idea stands.) I've also been diagnosed with Narcolepsy, but the medication the doc gave me just made me even more sleepy. Needless to say, I don't take them anymore because I have no idea what even happened to the prescription bottle.
I have a very wide range in my music tastes (everything from Jimi Hendrix and Nine Inch Nails to Backstreet Boys and Eminem to Ronnie Milsap and Dwight Yoakam... seriously, that doesn't even cover the half of it.) I'm an avid writer/poet and I'm going to college in the fall to study creative writing. I also like art (I submitted an AP portfolio the past two years of high school), mostly drawing and sculpture.
I really hope I can get some advice or answers from this forum (what else? That's what it's here for, right?) And I'm starting to feel this intro is getting extremely long, so I'll say auf wiedersehen from here.
