> Oh wow, I feel so comforted to hear people chatting about places I know!! Its weird to think there are actually REAL people going through the same thing as me, d'you know what I mean? Its like, everyone in my life is "normal", and then the people who understand my problems are online in this weird cyberworld! But no, you are actually living in places I know! hehe

> Outsider, are you at Cambridge University? If so, which college? I was (well, techincally still am) at Sidney Sussex, until I took time out in Jan. I don't think I'm going to be going out next year yet, mainly as my pdoc wouldn't write me a letter to take to admissions supporting a decision to go bac. Deep down I know I am nowhere near well enough anyway. But another year out feels like a huge step. They have been kind though and are keeping my place open for another year.

>Hi Pretty Paints
Its really good to finaly meet someone who's lived in Cambridge!I completely know what you mean about people who understand existing in a weird cyberworld which isnt quite reality. You hear about what their doing, but it always seems a little unreal especialy if their in America or Australia.
I also feel that every one around me is 'normal' although of course that is a relative term.
So you were at Sidney Sussex? I must have walked past it literaly hundreds of times! Although I don't think I've ever been inside.
I'm not actualy at Cambridge university, my pairents have lived in Cambridge for the last seven years, so I lived in Cambridge for quite a while. I actually graduated from the University of York this Summer.I'm currently being treated for depression and social phobia, although I might quite possibly have a dash of ADHD thrown in for good measure!
What were you reading at Sidney Sussex?
