TW: Death mention, You can call me by either name . I'm a 24 year old latinix, bi, cis-woman, and I live in California. I was originally self dexed and recently have been professionally diagnosed with BPD, BED, and depression, I'm also self dexed ADHD. I have a lot of hobbies and interests and I live with my wonderful supportive fiance. I like video games I play N64 and game cube mostly. I love TV: The Office is my favorite show, Parks and Rec, House of Cards, Breaking Bad, New Girl, Bob's Burgers, King of the Hill, and like a ton more TV and movies. I like to sew and do crafts, I used to dance seriously but I have mixed feelings about it because it harmed me more than it helped so it's not as much as a hobby anymore. The last couple of years have been tough for me. I've dropped out of college to start beauty school but then my father died and I dropped out of beauty school. However, I'm planning on going back to college. I start at community college in a couple weeks. When I figured out that I had BPD it really saved my life. I've been doing a lot of research, following a lot of blogs on tumblr, and will be starting DBT next week.

Hi Amanda! Welcome to the forum!
I'm also a huge fan of Bob's Burgers and The Office. I still need to finish Breaking Bad though. My brother made me start watching it, and I both love and hate him for it. :P
I'm a fellow drop-out, but I plan on going back to school eventually. (Maybe if I can live in a single state for longer than a year and avoid out-of-state tuition fees?) I wish you luck in your schooling! And I hope things keep looking up for you. <3

Hi Amanda! I love Bobs Burgers also. My console of choice is PS4 but that's only because Batman games. I dropped out of high school too but am now in my second year of uni, it gets tough sometimes but the achievement of passing even one unit is worth it. Good luck

Hey, Amanda!
I dropped out of uni and a few years back started attending college part time. I think sometimes college/uni just isn't the right thing for us at the time and that's understandable and can be very positive self-care for yourself.
So good luck with your college and DBT!
And welcome. :3
