I have decided to give blogging another try, especially given my new circumstances. Today I was diagnosed with Social Anxiety Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I had previously been considering the reality that I have some pretty significant anxiety problems. Here is an excerpt from my original introduction on this blog a few years ago...
"So I guess I didn't really ever introduce myself. My name is Brent. I'm 18 years old. Basically I'm not sure where I'm headed in life, but im trying to get an idea. It's just hard to find direction. I'm interested in cars, music, movies, art, fitness, food, xbox 360, and a lot more. Really I'm usually spending time with my friends doing something that involves cars. I'm glad I've got some good friends right now that I have a good time with. I've always been fairly shy and its something I've been trying to work on lately, but I think I may have social anxiety or something along those lines. I know it sounds like an excuse, but I think It might seriously be a problem of mine. Like I mentioned in my first post I'm in the process of figuring out where to head from here. I've always had problems comitting to one thing which is why this time's so hard for me. Hopefully you'll check back regularly and you can get a better idea of who I am and experience a different outlook on life.
The title of my blog is Uphill Battle. I'm referencing the song Uphill Climb by Josh Martinez. The song's pretty important to me because it really makes me reflect on life, our influence, and the struggles of everday life. They haven't ended yet, and they never will...realize that real life is an uphill battle."
I've changed a lot since that point, and am working on a variety of different projects at this point. I'm primarily looking for an outlet of expression for my entire self. I would also like to catalog my progression through anxiety treatment. This blog will also contain professional as well as personal journeys, dealing with Engineering, Motorcycling, as well as my interest in music, and goal to start a band and one day conquer my anxiety to play guitar live. I hope you'll check back often, I'll do my best out outline the most interesting and awakening aspects of my life.
