Thankyou Sallylou and Jillio
Well, souggy, I don't know my IQ, I don't drink alcohol (anymore), I'm incredibly messy, the only sports I like are gymnastics and F1, I'm British and I like sex as much as the next hoh person, according to another thread!
I find it interesting how, for me and my aforementioned recovered alcoholic friend, our own experiences have led to an interest in pursuing psychology for ourselves. She's currently studying person-centred counselling part time while she works. A year and half ago I had to scrape her off the pavement after finding her drunk in the town centre one afternoon, and take her home. It's amazing- and not in a positive way- how much life mental illness can sap from a person.
I am so proud of her though, she's turned herself around and she's happy, I'm slowly doing the same, and it looks like Irene Vilar has done the same. Incidentally, I always wanted to be an author when I was little; I'm looking for an IT job at the moment but I still have a little dream...
