Introducing myself.... Rusty

Hello, for those that dont read titles i'm Rusty and this is my intro.

I'm a 19 year old male and live in Lincoln, UK. I work for Debenhams. I'm an aspiring writer aswell..... only my writting sucks (i just have very good ideas). I do, as i'm sure the majority of you do, suffer from SAD.

I noticed i had SAD when i was 15. Every winter i get anti-social (i'm normally the opposite). I get cold; probally something to do with the climate. I sleep more (10hrs or so) and some times i'll lay under the bed sheets and listen to music. So yes i do suffer.

In the summer i'm a wild child...... and i love life. I love that amazing feeling of the sun shining down on you. Sitting at the park with your friends, playing frisbee, drinking some beers; enjoying the majesty of life. Is there anything more beautiful?

Sometimes i think SAD is a good disorder. It gives me appreciation for life. It has made me look deep inside, discovering myself and enjoying it is spectacular. SAD will take you for 4 or so months and make you a shadow. It will casts you into depths of misery unimaginable. But when flowers emerge once more, i am re-born into the world. Stronger, faster and hungrier than ever before. I can see the clouds, i can see the smiles on the the faces of eternal youth.

I am a positive person, but that sometimes breaks in the winter. I hope i can confide myself here.

I'll leave you all with a favirate quote of mine;

"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."

I really have to go home now.... my freezer just broke and i have to eat everything.

From Lincoln with Love
