Self description

Male , 17

I am from Cambridge and go to sixth form college, where I study German, Italian, Chemistry, Biology, and Maths, hopefully on my way to become a languages teacher! In my free time, I am an avid piano fan, and teach piano along with maths several times a week. I also love reading, writing, painting, and learning new things, as well as helping people in any way I can.

Life experiences

Teenagers

Being a teenager myself, I have a lot of experience of all the issues that can affect teenagers, either through myself or through helping friends, including bullying, image problems, eating disorders, self harming, depression and many other issues. I am commited to helping any one I can through my personal experiences.

School

I know a lot about the schooling system, from which GCSEs and A Levels you should choose and what the transition from secondary to sixth form is.

Tourette Syndrome and Related Disorders

I was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome at the age of 16, and have learnt so much about the condition, from what makes people "tic" to how other people deal with it. As well as Tourette Syndrome, I have OCD and several other conditions, and I have lots of experience of dealing with various neurological and mental illnesses.

Why mentor on horsesmouth?

When I was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, I wanted help, and I struggled to find it, so after overcoming my problems, I decided to become commited to helping other people in whatever way I can. I believe that sharing a problem is half the battle, and hearing others people's opinions can help greatly.

I am very lucky to have found your website. Recently I wrote about a problem which I face very often.... There were 10 responses from 10 mentors. They have really explained to me and made me understand that I do not have any problem. Your services are wonderful and I am very much thankful to all of you.

I have been mentoring on HM for 18 months. I really enjoy it & hopefully I am helping other people. Recently I posted my my first 'request for a mentor'. I have been completely bowled over by the response. So many people taking their time & making the effort to offer constructive advice in a friendly polite manner. For me it completely validates the intent behind HM. It reminds me how many good, helpful people there are out there. Thanks for providing such a great service.

well what a geat website! in all honestly, i basically typed in "agony aunts online" while on a down day just expecting some upbeat optimism on the computer, and came across this site. it is so much better than just reading a passage on a website, to actually talk to REAL people for honest advice and listening about particular subjects rather than a general overview.

I just want to say thanks to everyone who replied to one of my recent shout outs about forgiving - every message was useful and some very helpful indeed! It really feels good to know other people understand how i've been feeling, and to know there are people not far from me to help! Thanks so much, and everyone please don't hesitate to get in touch if I can help anyone with any problem you may be having xxx
