Day One. Blogging Challenge - Introduce yourself.

For July Ambermist from Tastes like Battle Chicken challenged everyone to write about themselves. Since I'm away from home visiting family and friends for a few weeks without real access to World of Warcraft I've chosen to incorporate both this challenge and the 20 days of WoW blogging challenge (courtesy of Saga over at Spellbound.) into one post as they're both something of an introduction to Me, not Soco nor Korla. I already have an introduction post but it's more related to the WoW side of my life.

Amazing quality picture from my
6 year old phone. 

In real life I'm not gold capped and I don't have an awesome mount collection. I can't even drive although I do have lots of dresses. I'm twenty six and I'm told I have a strong Scottish accent (I don't hear it). I'd say I'm girly girl. I adore having long, pretty painted nails. I love spending time with my friends they mean the absolute world to me.

I met my fiancée on WoW during The Burning Crusade he tanked while I healed. We've lived together for coming up on two years now. We don't have any kids or have any planned for the moment although hopefully in the future. For now we're content with our year old kitty who we only recently found out was actually a boy (after believing it to be a female since we got him!) He's an absolute nightmare sometimes but I don't think I could live without him now even though I'd still consider myself more of a dog person.

I now reside in yucky England with my Fiance far away from all of my friends and family. I'm on medication for depression / anxiety and  panic disorder which has unfortunately turned my life around in a bad way. I've been unemployed since I moved here which drives me nuts sometimes because I haven't made any new friends. Which was part of my reasoning for a trip back home for a few weeks. Just to get a bit of a breather, take a bit of time off. Verging on just never leaving the house I've started seeing a Councillor. I started having problems with anxiety several years go but it's only been in the past year that It's come to a real boiling point, rendering me afraid of the simplest of things like going to the shop on my own. When I had my first panic attack I was completely terrified, I can't begin to explain to anyone who hasn't experienced it how horrific it actually feels. The medication I'm on makes everything a little better and I'm hoping with time and taking little steps I'll be able to get my life back on track by next year. My fiancée has been an absolute rock throughout this past year in supporting me and taking care of me, he's defiantly one in a million. I'm so thankful to WoW for bringing us together.

I don't want to write too much because there are nineteen more posts in the challenge. And we don't want them all to turn into one big post but hopefully that's given you a bit of an insight into who's actually behind Soco!  I'm a pretty social person though If you haven't spoken to me before feel free to give me a poke on twitter @Socowow The next post will be "Why you started a blog".
