I'm New

[AndreaMaeBaby]

Hey, I'm Andrea. I'm 17, and a senior in a small town in Michigan, US. I'm pretty friendly, and I don't judge people. I really like it when people (especially guys, since girls don't seem to have this problem as much) make the attempt to get to know me. I'm shy. Like, extremely shy, and so posting here is taking a big leap forward.

I love reading, poetry, writing, and music. I sing, play guitar and piano. Umm...I'm an active member on another forum, but am currently looking for a new one to join.

So. Uh...yeah. That's it.

Also, a quick background on myself.

I'm a suicide attempt survivor. I have depression (mostly under control), and severe panic anxiety. My grandpa died of cancer almost 2 years ago, and when that happened, I tried to kill myself 3 times. I'm in recovery now, and my only struggles are my anxiety and some health problems. I'm in the hospital a lot. I'm a christian, but don't let that scare you away. A lot of people tell me that I'm a "cool christian", since I don't judge and force God on people. So, talk to me. I don't bite. :)
