*Waves Hello*
 
I just wanted to formally introduce myself here. I've been posting here and decided I should introduce myself. So here it goes.

Well my name's Caitlyn I'm 25 and from Massachusetts. I've been a self harmer for 12 years with brief periods of sobriety. I've also been the lucky lottery winner of being Bi Polar, PTSD,Borderline Personality Disorder. I was diagnosed when I was 18 and have been in and out of hospitals quite a few times. For the most part, I am stable but still have tough times. I'm also a survivor of sexual abuse.

When I was almost 24, I lost both of my parents due to illness. My mum had passed away 8 days after my dad. After the funerals, I stayed in my parents house for about 6 months then my brother,sister and I decided to sell the house cause I could not keep up the maintanence of the house. It was bittersweet. I have my own apartment now and am doin well. I have 2 jobs which help with the rent and the other bills.

I have 2 pets which I consider my *kids* I have a cat and a rabbit. I really don't know what else to say so I'll just stop here for now. Hugs and kisses

Caitlyn

Woot that is good :-) Vets is a fairly lively place or at least we try to make it like that, there is also the support side if you ever feel you need it xx

G'day Caitlyn! (no, I don't actually say that in real life unless I'm taking the piss)

Anyway, it is absolutely lovely to see you here in Vets. Pull up a beanbag and get comfy cause you're not getting away now :D

hello, have a prune

They make you fart! :P

PropheticStar 04-06-2008 03:52 AM

Maffew eats alot of prunes as you realise when you spend time with him

(i hope its the prunes anyway....)

Margo 04-06-2008 04:01 AM

^^^^
Look what would have been the point in travelling half way round the world to see you and not let you sample my ample aroma?

Take it as a huge compliment erin that i felt comfortable enough to pass wind in your company. *nods*

PropheticStar 04-06-2008 04:05 AM

I didn't think it was possible for anyone to feel THAT comfortable... >.<

I never farted on you and I felt comfortable >.>

(Maffew shhhh, they all think im sweet and polite and would never do anything like that)

CaiteeBug 04-06-2008 05:55 AM

ROFLMAO!!!!! Thanks for the offer on the prunes, but I'll think I'll pass on them. I have enough gas to fuel a small town. Imagine if I ate the prunes? I'd probably produce a small atomic bomb.

PropheticStar 04-06-2008 06:54 AM

Hahahahahaha

You fit in perfectly!

*applies peg to her nose*

CaiteeBug 04-06-2008 06:45 PM

Hi Caitlin

I'm a fairly new vet aswell. I've dabbled a little.

Are you anywhere near Boston? I visited there last October (to watch the Head of the Charles) and loved the place. My housemate is there this week. You're probably going to tell me that you are nowhere near but oh well, I was trying to find some common ground :-D

PropheticStar 04-06-2008 10:32 PM

(sneaks in to say a special welcome to no_reason HI)

ThinkingofRecovery 04-06-2008 11:18 PM

Special thank you to propheticstar - have sent you a pm. I am very sociable at the moment as have had way too much to drink in order to avoid other things. Hoping to be a useful member of the vets corner!

dancingirl 04-06-2008 11:47 PM

looks like you're at home already =D

PropheticStar 05-06-2008 03:40 AM

YAY!!!

I love having lovely new vetlings to play with *giggles*
