About Daimeera
Hello there!
I'm a 21 year old female from Nova Scotia, Canada. I'm not as active on this site as I once was, but I will almost certainly reply to private questions sent to me.
Let's see, about me. I've been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Clinical Depression, as well as some other related mental and physical illnesses. Despite this, I'm happier now than I can ever remember being.
I've been a vegan since August 2007. In other words, I do my best not to consume anything of animal origin, ranging from the obvious (meat), to the somewhat obvious (eggs and dairy), to the not-so-obvious (honey, wool, silk, and more). I love this life. I have so much more appreciation for everything and everyone around me, and I feel so at peace with myself and the world. I wake up everyday and know that I'm making a difference. It's been a huge turning point in my life.
I recently graduated from high school after an extra three years due to my illness. It was a long road, but it felt amazing to walk across that stage. An added bonus was having the 15th highest average (over my high school career) out of 258 students!
I intend to pursue a career in psychology, first obtaining my BA, and then attending graduate school in order to study for my PhD. It's a little daunting at times, but I know it will be worth it. I want to help people, plain and simple. I want to make a difference. I want to change the world. And I believe I can, if only in a small way.
I think that's me in a nutshell. I also enjoy writing, knitting, multiple other artistic endeavors (including drawing, photography, music, and more), web design, and many other things. So, feel free to drop me a message if you think there's something I can help with.
Psst, guess what? I, like everyone else, have my very own message board! You can visit it here.

If you're really determined to do this, do it right. Purchase sterilised needles intended for that specific purpose. Use gloves. Use good-quality jewelry. Read up about proper technique. Read some of the stories on bmezine.com Be careful.
You're wandering into very dangerous territory. You have to keep your piercing clean and your hands away from it. If you see any sign of infection, you have to get it looked at. Cartilage piercings are especially dangerous because if they get infected, they can cause the cartilage to collapse.
You're better off waiting until you can get it done professionally. I know that's not what you want to hear, but it's the safest way to do it.
If you're determined to do it yourself, you might want to look here for supplies:

They offer needles, sharps containers, gloves, and everything else you'll need. That's the only safe way to do it.
