Hi Steemians :)

steemit-hello.jpg

First of all I am so happy to be a part of, what I think, is a true Social Platform.
So thanks to @steemit and every single one of you making this possible.

Who am I?

13109035_1595592797421013_1943202057_n.jpg

My name is Simon, 24-years old and I currently live in Stuttgart, Germany.
I am a dreamer.
I love to talk and write a lot, so I'll try to keep my introduction short.

I enjoy:

  • expressing myself
  • spending time with other people
  • having a good conversation
  • learning new things
  • coffee (no milk, only sugar FYI)
  • overcoming my inner laziness
  • not overcoming my inner laziness :'D

Unfortunately I have not always been positive and happy.

Since I've been a child I had mental issues.
I was diagnosed with a borderline personality disorder and suffered from heavy depressions throughout my childhood and puberty.

Young depressed Simon, Age 16

After years of therapy, a failed suicide attempt, a lot of loss and drug abuse my view had changed.
At the age of 19 I've come to one realisation that gave me hope and energy:
I didn't choose who I became. I can't change who I am. I can only change who I will become.

Still young but not depressed anymore Simon, Age 22

I've had lost my will to live.
But I recovered and now I am one of the most positive people I know.
(since I live in southern Germany that's not a big achievment but you get what I am trying to say :P)

If you are interested in what helped me overcome my depression feel free to contact me.
I'll help as much as possible.

I don't intend to make this blog entirely about my past.
This was just an insight for you to get a better understanding on why I am who I am.
Now that I've put my cards on the table, it's time for a more important question:

What can you expect from me in the near future?
Nothing!
Never expect anything from anyone but yourself ;)

I am doing this for me, which I think is the best possible way to produce interesting,
valuable and honest content.
If I would try to create content solely to achieve certain goals or inspire a certain group of people, I would have to limit myself.

This year I'll be moving to Los Angeles to pursue my dreams.
All of you are invited to join me on my journey.

I wont be settling in a specific niche.
I'll try to be active on steemit, dtube, dsound, dstream and dmania as much as possible.

Why steemit?

I always loved the idea of using social media how it was meant to be used: social.
Steemit is the first concept I'm truly excited about.

When I first read about the Blockchain (thanks @futurism) I was very interested in it.
From that day on it took me almost one and a half year to stumble upon this gem which goes by the name of steemit. (again a huge thank you to @noexcuses)
There are a lot of interesting posts about why you should be on steemit so I won't be digging into it here.

That's it for now. If you want to, feel free to contact me anytime.
I am looking forward on having a great time here on steemit with all of you.
Keep up the positive vibe - nothing better then people coming together and supporting each other.
