Looking for friends

[semilost]

I'm new to DW but not new to journalling. I have had an LJ account for a few years. I'm not too good at introductions so I thought bullet points were the way to go :)

• I am a forty-two year old female that doesn't feel her age a lot of the time.
• I live in the UK
• I have one daughter who is twenty-two and soon to be a mum herself.
• I live with Tim, my partner of ten years.
• I have suffered with depression and anxiety for as long as I can remember and was recently diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder).
• I attend CAT (Cognitive Analytical Therapy) once a week for an hour. I think it's helping.
• I attend 'The Beehive', which is a charity that supports people with mental health problems. I go there twice a week and do woodwork.
• I love music and wouldn't want to be without it. I like Florence and the Machine, Anna Ternheim, Bon Iver, Cat Power and Imogen Heap, to name but a few.
• I like to read but don't do enough of it. My favourite author is Neil Gaiman.
• I like to watch House, Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Buffy and Charmed.
• I also like to watch documentaries, especially hospital ones.
• I love horror movies
• I like nature. I especially like the sea.
• I have a dog (who's my baby boy), four cats and a rabbit
• I'm honest, caring and friendly
• I can ask too many questions, mostly because I'm interested but partly due to nerves.
• I try to be creative.
• I've not worked since 1986
• I hate confrontation

*raises hand* Depression and BPD here too (under control now, thanks the Gods), plus a few courses of Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. And a taste for hospital documentaries although I don't get much chance to watch them. Mind if I add you? :)

I don't mind at all. Added :)
