hepburn

(To be perfectly honest I usually don't do the whole introduction thing. However, I fear if I didn't I'd feel far more awkward than if I overlooked the whole ordeal in general. Which is also something I'm kinda working on.)
You can call me hepburn if you wish :]
Instead of writing a fairly scattered brained "bio", I think that I'll condense it down to why joined here in the first place.
First off, I'm currently taking medication for depression. (Which quite honestly has helped me a great deal.) And now that I'm at a somewhat healthier state of mind, I feel like reaching out to other people. But not necessarily RL people. That's not to say, though, that I have AvPD or some other disorder having to do with that sort of thing; because I really don't. I'm just a naturally shy and awkward person, and I tend to not try socializing with unfamilliar persons to save myself from my own embarassment and humiliation. (Which I realize is a very irrational and distorted view of human interactions, and I'm working on it.)
And another reason for my being here... Where I live and the people I interact with every minute day of the week -- it's all so dreadfully stifling.
I feel as if I'm just wasting my time here. And that bothers me a great deal. So I'm hoping a forum like this will be just what I need, seeing as there is a greater variety of personalities.
But anyway, to summarize my ramblings of what was supposed to be a summary (whoopsie; you'll soon see I tend to do that.), I just want someone to talk to. No guilt. No lies. No fakery. :]
