First Impressions

Sooo, I have been gearing myself up for months… hell maybe years to start writing my own journal and it has only been today (right now), that I have felt ready to share my thoughts and join this ever-growing blogging world!
I guess I should start with the boring stuff: My name is L, I live in England and I’m in my mid 20's. I was brought up with a very loving family, I struggled with the academic subjects in school – art and design was my thing and then somehow, I managed to get myself into university. I moved miles away from home for education, work and for what I thought was love (I’ll write about that another time though.)
 I have been wanting to start writing for ages now, as I see it as a release. I suffer from anxiety and low mood, so sometimes I feel as though I can’t confide in anyone. That’s not because I don’t have the support of my family and friends (I do!), it’s just sometimes I feel there is a limit as to how much I can tell a person about the crazy thoughts/feelings I have. My doctor advised me to go to therapy, so I gave it a go. Little did I know they could only offer me talking therapy over the telephone, I couldn’t even see the person who I was talking to (wtf?!) so I ended it after two sessions.
And that’s why I’m (finally) starting this! But don’t worry, I promise it won’t all be doom and gloom. I will be giving advice, tips and talking about the good things that happen in life too!
