Diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder at age 9. Medicated with Paxil from ages 10 to 15.
Experimented with drugs (marijuana, psychedelic drugs, etc.) late in high school and early in college.
Experienced a manic-depressive breakdown at age 19. Diagnosed with Bipolar II Disorder at age 20. Now medicated with Lamictal.
Anxiety is my vice. I cope with symptoms by writing poetry, playing music, making art, and studying mathematics/computer science.
