Hi everybody! I'm new here, so I figured I'd answer some of these cool little introductory threads.


What is your first name? Shannon

Age: 15

Location: Pennsylvania, the States

Hobbies and Interests: writing, reading, being with my close friends, going to shows, music (especially the bands Leftover Crack and the Sex Pistols), making clothes, sewing, any sort of diy project, drawing, exploring in the woods, internet, skin care (one of my big areas of expertise), and lots more...

Why are you here? To chat and hopefully make new friends. Smile

When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): I've been diagnosed with so many different disorders so many times. Bipolar, ADHD, Aspergers, OCD...I don't remember when exactly, within the past two years. It's hard to keep track.

Favorite subjects: English and History.

Year/Grade: I'm going into public school for the first time in two years, and I'm not sure if they're going to put me in 9th or 10th grade...I'm really scared about going back to school. Crying or Very sad

Favorite music: Oi!, Punk, rock n roll, street rock, metal, ska...I like many different genres.

Books: Lots of fiction, I can't keep track anymore. My all time favorite books are the Stranger by Albert Camus, Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh and A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess.

TV shows/Movies: I don't watch Tv, but I love movies...I like horror *but not horror movies with pop up gimmicks as the scary parts...they make me nervous, not thrilled or scared). Some movies I liked are This is England, Trainspotting, A Clockwork Orange, the Boondock Saints, I Am Legend, 28 Days Later, all the SAW movies, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas....

Instrument: Drums.

Do you like sports? Only soccer. And only when I'm playing with my friends.

Family: My mom and dad are divorced but still good friends with each other. I'm lucky to have them in my life. I also have two older step sisters and I step brother. And my dog, Pink.

Clothing: I usually wear jeans with the cuffs rolled up, Doc Marten steel toed boots, and a band t shirt or polo shirt.

How did you find this website? Goole search

Job: None right now, but looking.


Plans for the future? To travel a lot, to write a book. Those are my only real goals so far.
