My story! (Another Blueboarder)

Hi I'm Oceangirl73,

I choose my name because of my first love of the ocean, and my passion for surfing. Its basically the essence of who I am, and being a surfer makes me feel alive

I have posted but I thought I woud like to introduce myself. I suffer from a MI and have been under the same psychiatrist for 18 years. In recent times really struggled with my MI after completing my public health degree. And I am now trying to find some traction in my life and to find my purpose again and to connect with others.

As I start to feel more comfortable, I will post a more details about my expereinces with my mental illness but I believe I am on my road to recovery and what I have learnt the most is to be my own best friend.

I will keep this short and sweet and I hope I can make some friendships here, and to be able to support each other on our journey to wellness.
