A Little About Me...

Name: Renee
Age: 23
Location: U.S.
DOB: 4/20/1982

Previously this was a site that was going nowhere so I decided to revamp it, add some new things and dedicate it to Karen's e-group. I am currently a Senior in college doing nothing;however, I am majoring in liberal arts looking specifically at English and Sociology, I still have time to change my major. Anyway, at the age of 16 I was put in a place that was always the butt of crazy house joke, Charter. Yeah you know the commercial, "If you don't get help here, please get help somewhere." I stayed there for a week due to depression, self-mutilation, suicidal tendencies, disordered eating, and extreme isolation. I did not know that this was a problem with a name until I had been placed in the psych hospital, I guess after that I became obsessed with looking information up self-injury on the net. I learned all the nicknames for it, found pictures, e-groups, websites and other people in my area who lived with this. Of course, in time, I got rid of most of that, for the longest time it felt better to simply know that I was not alone with this. This has been apart of my for so long, I hope to get up one day and say, "No more!" Until then, I can only be safe and dream that something will cause me to stop. When everything gets to crappy I try to slip away into a safe place which I always label-My Dreamland...
