So what has everyone been up to lately?

For me, I used to want to be in Medical School, but now I've shifted my focus into becoming an Prosthetist (or a guy who builds prosthetic limbs). In order to do this, I'm getting my Master's degree. What about you guys?

I'll be going back to school next year part-time, which will take two years, and then after that, I'll be going for my Masters in Journalism at university. I spent the majority of the last 8 years recovering from severe agoraphobia, as well as dealing with a whole range of personal issues, but I'm in a better place now, and ready to properly start life - if I may have left it a decade too late. Lol.

Six feet even - same as before. Just maybe a few more wrinkles. And smaller steps getting to the bathroom.

Went from a high school student with no idea what to do, to college, dropped out; taught myself to code instead, and now Iโ€™m doing great. :)

I'm always busy... still if I'm busy I don't have time to think too much!! It's been a good 10 years for me, I'm finally (mostlysorta)comfortable in my skin.

Thatโ€™s awesome to hear. :) And even if itโ€™s only mostly sorta, thatโ€™s a huge step in the right direction towards being totally happy with yourself!

Got sick, got better. Fell in love. Got a job, put them on the map. Did not get the promised increase. Resigned. Got sick again. Will be battling this one for the next six months again. Should be okay in a year again.

I wish we had stayed closer when Help went dark. I did not know about your health. I hope you feel better soon. If we can do anything for you, please let us know.

Don't want to hog someone else's post, but it's chemo again for the next six months. Then another couple of months for recovery. I should be up and running this time next year again.

My heart breaks for you. :( Between 2009 -2013, I was 100% agoraphobic. I barely left my own bedroom, let alone my house. It's a self-made prison.

If you can, please please please seek a counselor and get support before you become completely housebound. I will never get those years back. I lost my fiance during that time, and I couldn't attend his funeral. I had a nephew born and never met him before he died at 20 months. Again, could not attend his funeral.

It is hell and I couldn't wish it on my worst enemy. If you need to talk, vent, anything, please feel free to seek it here, and my shoutbox is always open to listen.
