Hi to everyone on here. I'm 28 and from the UK and joined this forum in order to meet and chat with some new people; something that is rather missing from my life at the moment.
I'll give a bit of back info:
I became seriously depressed back when I was a teenager based on my very low self-esteem. It took me about 5 years to get out of the depression but I was left with some kind of social anxiety by the end of that. I went out of my way to avoid people and became rather misanthropic and even a little paranoid.
Things have gotten somewhat better since then. I went back to college where I did well and even carry out presentations - something that would have horrified me years ago. I volunteer in my local area and feel better about life as a whole but I'm still rather isolated and don't know anyone near my own age. Living in a rural area doesn't help either and I often feel at a bit of a loss as to what to do about it, particularly on the relationship front.
Anyway, interests-wise I'm pretty creative when it comes to art, I play videogames, read, go to zumba exercise classes, play the guitar (badly I'd like to add), and occasionally like to try more adventurous activities like surfing, kayaking etc. I hope I can get to know some of you and have a chat and a laugh in the future.
