Hello ,

I've never done this before but I've reached the decision of wanting to share my story . Perhaps , there's a few others within the community who have struggled with similar issues and have had similar experiences . I'll just start this off with introducing myself . My name is Kasha . I'm turning 20 years old on the 8th of this month . Yes , I'm a Scorpio ! ;) I've been a regular user of MyFitnessPal throughout the years . I believe I started using the application in Grade 10 . It was that year I had decided upon losing weight after unfortunately leaving the High School Cross Country team due to Anxiety. I developed a Binge Eating Disorder shortly afterwards which triggered feelings of depression , self hate , and low self esteem . Sadly , I decided on coping by self harming . Now , it's been a few years since I last self harmed but I have the scars today still. I'm very proud to say I'll be covering those scars of the past with fresh tattoos on March 8th , 2015. I'm a highly emotional and impulsive person who often isolates instead of reaching out to those I love for help and understanding . I struggle to put my feelings into words and am often misunderstood . It's been a great battle understanding myself and overcoming the past me . At times , I'm drowning in guilt and shame .Sometimes , I don't even feel like a person . I've been homeless among many other situations but I've never given up . I'm not entirely sure what I am doing most days but I believe I shall reach my goals of one day becoming a personal trainer . I know this isn't exactly the perfect worded introduction but I felt like sharing briefly . If anyone has experienced the same or simply wants to become friends on this journey then feel free to request me . :) Best of luck to all !
