I am the type of person who gets anxious making a phone call, but has the ability to feel completely at ease wandering around an unfamiliar city with only the slightest knowledge of how to get wherever it is I am going. There is something very satisfying about meeting new people and exploring places I’ve never been before. For someone who has always preferred to keep to herself, I have an overwhelming curiosity about the world around me, and I dedicate a lot of my time trying to understand the people in it. When I was little, maybe around five or six, I would play this game where every time strangers caught my attention, I would make up a story about how and why they met, and write about how they ended up in the same place as me.

I stopped seeing my ADD as a roadblock, and instead started treating it as an advantage. I began to see my ADD as a superpower. It enhances my creativity and fascination with the world around me. Having this disorder has given me the blessing of being able to see the world through a pair of personalized lenses. I would even go as far as to say that my creativity stems from this disability and is the reason I am so fascinated by everyone and everything. I have grown to love my busy brain and all that comes with it, especially how no matter what, I am always thinking about something. This quirk gives me the ability to become completely involved in all my passions. Whether it is being entranced by a good book, an assignment for school, or something creative - I can vouch that my best work is completed in this attentive bubble of mine. I am excited to see what the abundant future awaits me, and how my unbounded imagination, resilience, and curiosity will work together to navigate and overcome any challenges that come my

When I first discovered that I had ADHD I absolutely hated it because I realized I was different from everyone else. I saw it as a weakness that was holding me back from achieving my dreams. Since I have come to learn to accept it, I now know how to make use of it and use it to my advantage. As I’ve grown up I know see I have the strength within myself to overcome this. I love how I take interest in things some people generally don’t find interesting.
Christmas is not a happy time for everyone.

As I entered high school and grew up the world began to change as I encountered the topics of suicide, eating disorders, mental disease and substance abuse on a daily bases. All words I heard before now became my reality I watched my friends starve themselves to shed a couple pounds, my cousin killing himself along, discovered my uncle was an alcoholic and my brother and friends were suicidal. Just last year three kids committed suicide at my school, and many I saw the true colors of multiple family members being succumbed to alcohol abuse. As I never experienced any feeling of depression or need to impress others and have lived a genuinely happy life I was puzzled and began to question why the people in my life thought the way they did and it got me truly intrigued by the psychological world.
These issues impact the group and myself in various ways. This is probably the first time, but I am sure will not be my last that I am disclosing my sexuality. After years of pre-contemplation and figuring myself out I do identify myself as a homosexual twenty three year old Indian male. It has taken me twenty three years to finally accept that I am not attracted to the opposite sex but to the same sex. I did try fixing myself as many discreet people try doing.
I have a great deal of experience with consumer economics. While at Ball State as an Instructor I taught a required general education Personal Finance course to over 1,000 students a year. We competed nationally in the America Saves Challenge and Ball State students, under my direction, were “Best in the Nation” 4 years in a row. We started a Debt Free student organization that connected students to alumni, scholarships, and resources on campus to minimize student debt.

Additionally, my career has taught me to be more lively from acting out character and the work environment in general. As a ponder my work experiences, my manager comes up to me and states, “You have been doing a great job, make sure to keep up the work!” I could not be more overjoyed. I cannot wait for work
Question: Something I’ve overcome. I was 6 years old. Walking up to the tall building was very intimidating. Inside was the testing center. I was nervous, but Mom reassured me that everything would be ok.
“I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Rebecca Cowan Faculty Advisor for Capella University for my ALR interview assignment.” She received her LPC from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia in 2011 after she received her Ph.D. in 2010. I was amazed at the short time span it took her to accomplish this and “she stated ‘I wish I had taken time off between the two’ ” completing these feats in such a short time span didn’t allow her much free time to gather her thoughts. Dr. Cowan uses both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Person Centered Theory (PCT) in her professional counseling approach. “CBT is based on the notion that behavioral and emotional responses are strongly moderated and influenced by cognitions and the perception
To say you like something is easy, before you know it the words slip out your mouth like a song. You can gaze out your window to see birds flying through the sky without a care in the world; smell the crisp air of an Autumn day; watch as the leaves become brittle and frail and change to a magnificent array of orange, golden and browns.

Though, if you take a subject with such meaning and place it next to these, would you be able to describe it with a word. Would these items still hold its beauty, yet become dull compared to something meaningful to you.
