All about me - thought you'd like to know!

Let me tell you a little about myself. I am English but since 1994 am living in Izmir (western Turkey) and am married with two kids Daniel 14 and Ebru 22. I have worked in Electronics, Sales and Teaching. I am not a mental health professional or doctor just someone with a lot of life experience to share. I have been asked to elaborate on my life experience, so here goes...

I have lived in Australia, England, Italy and Turkey and moved around a lot especially when I was 5-11 years old. This created a number of problems even at that young age. I speak Italian, Spanish and Turkish. I have overcome low self esteem, inferiority, depression and much more in my life and as a result of my experiences felt that I could help others overcome and defeat these debilitating problems. In 1994 I moved to Turkey from England having married two years earlier with a five month old baby boy. That year I also took my final exams at University. The culture shock I have faced and change in lifestyle have presented real challenges and difficulties. Currently I am considering whether to move back to England.
