Hi, I'm Mary Alice......born & raised in Chicago - still living in the Midwest area. I am married with a beautiful 7 year old son named Alex.

Most of my life I have suppressed all my emotions until about 3 years ago when I started having anxiety/panic attacks with depression. I have harmed myself numerous times and tried suicide as well.

I started seeing a therapist 2 years ago and went on meds for my depression. I have been diagnosed as BPD and severe depression.

Everyone on this board means the world to me and has been there being supportive when no one else has - you are all absolutely wonderful people - my family.

Mary Alice
