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.

Hi there! Im female, fifteen.
I come from a pretty strong Christian family but were still really laid back and dont go to church too often, except for my older sister;; she like owns a church. But her husband is a hardcore evangelist. I dont know what it means to me an evangelist, though.
But my family is reallly blessed and weve had a lot of health problems in the family and quite a few miracles.
Im not sure when, but my parents received a prophecy "Both of your girls will grow up to be missionaries, and so strong will their spirits be that all will forget the mother" or something like that.
But I cant help but have my doubts about that. Thats definitely had favor on my sisters part, but I get nervous when she asks me to pray. And I dont know how to pray in tongues. I dont even know why people do it, like my family. I just dont know HOW.
But my main problem is that being a teenaged girl I feel guilty when I want to pleasure myself. I do, but I always feel so bad afterwards that I cant stand to be in the same room as my mother.
Annd, I dont know what to dooo please help :'[[
Tough situation, definitely.
You're your own person. True, you're fifteen, live in your parents' house and have a certain obligation to follow their own rules. But at the same time, you don't have to believe what they believe. You don't have to plan the future they want you to have.
Masturbation is (or should be) nothing to be ashamed of. It's natural, it's safe, and I can't imagine that God would allow us to feel such pleasure by our own hands if He was dead-set against it. I feel that masturbation is a safe way of exploring sexuality without the problems that another individual can bring to the situation.
Right now, you are restricted by what your parents want for you. It seems like you get along with them reasonably well (at least you didn't indicate otherwise). I think it's important to follow their rules as far as dating, curfews, etc. might be concerned. But don't feel you need to fulfill their plans for your future.
If you want to do something other than missionary work, that is definitely your choice to make. And if you don't know what you want to do, that's okay too. But it's your life to live.
You're still fifteen! Don't plan too hard yet.
Self-pleasuring is nothing to feel guilty over. Neither is an inability or lack of desire to prey in tongues or follow the rules of your parents' church. Be you. Just be prepared to follow some of their rules until you move out.
Take care.
Daimeera,
21/female
