A little bit about me:I'm currently a college student studying to be a social worker. I would like to provide therapy to the mental health population.

I have experience in this field. I have a family history of mental illness. At age 16, I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder and depression. At age 23, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder with psychotic symptoms. I currently go to a day program for young adults. My brother was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, my sister with schizoaffective nd my other brother with dysthymia. My grandma on my dad's side had depression and later developed Alzheimers disease. I'm am interested in meeting other people like me in similiar circumstances, sharing my experience and learning more about the things I'm interested in.
