Life experiences
self esteem
I have a low self esteem, which i often disguise with jokes and comedy. I also sometimes find it hard to show the real me. However, i am slowly overcoming this.
anxiety
i get anxiety, which sometimes stops me doing from doing certain things. University and meeting many different people helped me deal with this.
issues around crime, and psychology
This is what i am studying at the University of Southampton. My dissertation is going to be on domestic violence, which i am currently researching. i have also completed a miniture course on mentoring young students.
Why mentor on horsesmouth?
i think this kind of mentoring is good because it gives an element of distance. some people may not like talking directly, which oftens means brushing problems under the carpet instead of addressing them. This allows problems to be addressed, perhaps not eradicated but definately helped.

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
