<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm Leanne, I'm 25 and I suffer from depression...Yep, I am admitting this and yep I am putting it out there. This is the start of my path to happiness (ohh the chesse!) <i style="font-weight: bold;"> </i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A few facts before we start:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><i style="font-weight: bold;">Depression is common-one in five people become depressed in their lives</i></li>
<li><i style="font-weight: bold;">The single greatest misconception surrounding depression resides with it's cause</i></li>
<li><i><b>The feeling of depression is deeper and more unpleasant than short periods of unhappiness</b></i><i><b> </b></i></li>
</ul>
Depression is still a very taboo subject and kept quite hush-hush. The numbers of people suffering from some form of depression re ever increasing but it is topic that is still not readily talked about.<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So...I guess I've had depression since about being 17-18, but I was only 'officially' diagnosed about 3 years a go. Yes I take anti-depressants and yes I've tried counselling. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Being 100% honest counselling was NOT for me, I understand how it works for some people but for me I just didn't find it of any help. As a person I'm not very comfortable discussing my problems and issues with people. This in turn makes my depression worse. Lack of communication plays a major part in why I can become so down. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I can't and won't talk to people about things that are bothering and upsetting me. Strange I'm doing this though eh?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have fear of letting people close to me, letting them know personal facts about me. In my delusional mind letting somebody get close to you ultimately leads to getting hurt. I don't want to be hurt, hence keeping people very much at arms length. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So having to sit and talk to a complete stranger, telling them intimate things about my thoughts and feelings just wasn't going to work. Much to my Dr's dismay. I lasted about four sessions before I just never went back. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I've stuck with the happy pills though, taking them each day in the hope of an overwhelming miracle where I'll become as happy as possible. Obviously this has not happened, haha. To be honest I don't actually know if they are working or it's just my mind makes me thin they are, if I take this pill I WILL feel better. The thought of not taking them scares me more than the thought that I could be on these for the rest of my life. I'm happy to rely on some chemical if it keeps me on an even keel. I have abused the tablets, it would be a lie to say I haven't. Taking up to four times the normal dose in a bid to be happy, feel normal. But in the long run it doesn't work for one it's not good for you and is basically overdosing and well as soon as you cut it down the happy feeling just disappear making the dark times 100% worse. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The 'dark times' is what I call my low times. Depression is an individual thing, no two people feeling the same. For me it is like a dark cloud constantly surrounding me, blocking out happiness, fun and enjoyment. Don't get me wrong every now and again this cloud will crack and light gets through and I can be happy, I can be smiley, laugh and joke. The real me can be seen, I can be a nice person. But these days are becoming increasingly rare. The dark times are becoming more frequent and much darker, dense clouds trying their hardest to block even tiny streaks of light. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When this happens I feel like I can't allow myself to have fun, to laugh, to be me. The desire to shut myself away becomes completely overwhelming. I despise this person, a person who pushes away people close to me. I tell myself I'm not good enough for them, they don't want to know me. Why would they want to be friends with me?...One of my biggest regrets is loosing the one person I have ever truly loved. I pushed this person away, trying to make them hate me like I hated myself. I did some awful things to this person, I should never have treated someone I loved so dearly that way. In the end they left and they have now found happiness of their own with someone who deserves them.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I guess I've always been good in my own company, I don't mind doing things alone. I've never really had masses of friends, even at high school. Just a small group. But at this moment I fear I truly have pushed any friends I had away. This is what depression has caused me to do and ultimately I will be alone and it will be all my own doing. <b style="font-style: italic;"> </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I over critique myself, I over criticise myself. I could easily reel of a list of things I hate/dislike about myself. Where as as me what I like about me and it is much more difficult!<b style="font-style: italic;"> </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;">Why am I writing this? </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-style: italic;"><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
To break this taboo of not talking about depression, to go against my own rules of not sharing my problems. One this is done, it's out there and there is no going back. I'm venturing out of my comfort zone and doing something in a bid to help me start my path to a happier place. Friends and family are going to read this, complete strangers too. But it feels like the right thing, at this time, to do. I am not looking for sympathy and I hope I haven't come across all 'woe is me' as that is completely not what this about. From the outside I'm just an average 25 year old girl but delve inside and I'm a different person. I guess what I'm trying to say is depression can affect anyone and everyone you can't stereotype people. Don't treat it like a taboo subject any more. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I hope someone reads this and realises they are not alone in how they feel, if this can encourage at least one person to talk about how they feel some good has come from it :)</div>

Now it's reached my make up bag. This is an all round amazing product and a must have for make up bags.<br />
After waking up one morning to find the most humongous spot on my chin, that even industrial strength concealer couldn't hide, my all knowing mother pointed me in the direction of Sudocrem.<br />
So off I trekked to Boot's, scarf wrapped around my chin, spot hidden from the world and headed straight to the baby aisle.<br />

As you can see this can be used for a multitude of ailments! People talk about beauty bag staples and this is one of mine. You'll always find a pot of this in with my face products. And the spot, well after applying a generously thick layer and leaving it overnight my spot was greatly reduced. Redness was down and it was hardly noticeable. Now if I feel a spot coming on I'll lather this on and leave it overnight.<br />

And well it's now feeling rather sorry for itself and looking a little dry :(<div>Remember kids, going from Brunette to Blonde at home never ends well. </div><div><br /></div><div>So I am now on a mission to make my hair super moisturised! As well as using my V05 Miracle Concentrate and Moroccan Hair Oil I treated myself to these little beauties...</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://img816.imageshack.us/img816/873/001op.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /><br />By <a target="_new" href="http://profile.imageshack.us/user/naun87">naun87</a> at 2012-02-06</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I've never really been a big fan of John Frieda after using their Frizz Ease Serum and finding it made my hair lank and greasy. But after scouring the shelves of Boots I thought I'd give them another try.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">First is Full Repair Deep Infusion serum...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/6476/002idlc.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /><br />By <a target="_new" href="http://profile.imageshack.us/user/naun87">naun87</a> at 2012-02-06</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It is supposed to 'Silken & Protect', call me sceptical but I always find this a bit of a claim! The product itself is rather watery and runny nothing like the thick Frizz Ease Serum. The bottle says to apply to wet hair and basically use sparingly. My hair is shoulder length and I use two pumps of this and find it doesn't make my hair greasy, but then again I swear my hair just sucks up moisture! I'm also a bit of a rebel and use it on dry hair ;o </div><div style="text-align: left;">Since using this I've noticed my hair is less brittle and dry looking and it also helps to control the frizz and any split ends. Out of 10 I give this product a rather good 8/10 :) I'm defiantly going to be purchasing it again! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Next is Full Repair Deep Conditioner...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/9358/003snn.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /><br />By <a target="_new" href="http://profile.imageshack.us/user/naun87">naun87</a> at 2012-02-06</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Now I've been using this every time I wash my hair and have noticed a massive difference! I only wash my hair about 2-3 times a week (such a minga, I know :p) so can get away with it this often. But you could easily get away with using it just once a week for a moisturising boost. </div><div style="text-align: left;">It's described as '<i>intense repairing formula, with lightweight Inca Inchi Oil (?!), penetrates deep and repairs the look and feel of over styled hair, reducing the risk of breakage'. </i>Whatever Inca Inchi Oil is it must be good stuff! </div><div style="text-align: left;">The product itself is quite a thin consistency, not thick and heavy like most conditioning treatments. My only criticism is the smell, it really reminds me of old ladies perfume...luckily it doesn't linger on your hair! I give this 6/10, I have used other deep conditioner which I do prefer like Lee Stafford one's but I am impressed at how different my hair feels just after a few uses and would recommend it :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11523328877308599855noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3404806135682822660.post-84549162025846123502012-01-31T18:12:00.004+00:002012-01-31T18:32:03.391+00:00New year new start...So I am massively late to jump onto the new year new start post band wagon, what with January nearly over!

This year I want to grab every opportunity that is offered to me, think along the lines of 'Yes Man'...though no going to Amsterdam to meet random internet people thank ya very much, haha. </div><div><br /></div><div>I'm not really sure what the point of this post is, just a chance for me to waffle for the world to see (and bore you all :p). </div><div><br /></div><div>Welcome 2012 and whatever you have to throw at me ;) </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><script src="http://img51.imageshack.us/shareable/?i=tumblrlqrfozpnzq1qb8a3r.png&p=tl" type="text/javascript"></script><noscript>[URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/51/tumblrlqrfozpnzq1qb8a3r.png/][IMG]http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/9366/tumblrlqrfozpnzq1qb8a3r.png[/IMG][/URL]</noscript></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11523328877308599855noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3404806135682822660.post-62481895893192551162011-12-12T21:04:00.002+00:002011-12-12T21:24:04.862+00:00Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin.

<br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I unfortunately have horribly shaped nails so it was hard to fit them perfectly but they do come with a range of sizes to fit most nails. Simply stick them on then cut them down to match the length of the nail :) </div><div style="text-align: left;">

It is very much appreciated :)<div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7xUNhyBHcY5kD9k-19LZ1dNqwE1xEx9ptiSfAGYAEvefzg45QykhvrKseFm0vyRVrtqhg0jU36H570FT6FLTk75idn9P408vbyvCvtwdclNID7Idgpy7ydA2jEHYCTt91deNOaABOlg-i/s1600/Liebster+Blog+Award.jpg" /></div><div>
<br /></div><div>Basically it helps to get people's blogs noticed which is always a good thing in my book, especially with some of the amazing blogs that are out there! All you have to do is make sure you post about the award and link to the person who nominated you and then pick three blogs and let them know you nominated them...simples! </div></div><div>
<br /></div><div>So congrats to my chosen three...the first one I defiantly encourage you to follow as she is a very good friend of mine!!</div><div>
