Before coming to Hadley I used to smoke cigarettes and consume alcohol. I usually got drunk only on weekends, and not every weekend. When came to smoking, it usually took me about a month to get through a pack. I never really tried too many drugs, I used marijuana a few times, but I never really liked it.



Psychiatric History:

Have you been diagnosed with any psychiatric issues? If so, please list diagnoses and age of diagnoses below:
I was diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa at the age of fifteen.

If you answered yes to the above, please list any and all prescriptions, including dosage and frequency of dosage, and other treatment plans below:
The only medicine I ever had was what they gave me at Hadley. When I was at the Chicago Center, before Hadley, my therapist would work on my self esteem and teach me about healthy exercise and eating – although that treatment never really worked, because I never tried to get better while I was there.

If you answered yes to the above, please describe noted feelings, symptoms, triggers and incidents associated with the diagnoses, and ages of incidents below:
The first time I ever skipped a meal was after my first big show with my band, I was fourteen at the time. When I came home, my parents didn’t even pretend to be happy for my brother and me, they just headed out the door on another business trip; they couldn’t even spare two seconds of their time. I thought that maybe if I improved myself, if I got more attractive, people would want to spend more time around me; my own parents ignoring me was what really showed me just how little I mattered to other people.

It was all downhill from there, from ages fourteen to fifteen I just kept working on being thinner and getting more people to like me. Having the band wasn’t helpful; I wanted to be better for my band mates, to look good so I didn’t ruin our chances at success. When I was fifteen my brother found out about the eating disorder when he saw how much weight he had lost, I though he would be proud of me, but he wasn’t. Not long after, before my brother really talked to me about my eating habits, I passed out and was taken to the hospital, where I was kept for a few days. My parents didn’t even want to deal with me then; they just sent me off to have my problem taken care of somewhere else, somewhere where I wasn’t directly their responsibility.

I probably should have tried to get better either the Chicago Center or Hadley, but I felt like I still wasn’t good enough for my parents or anyone else, and I felt like not eating gave me discipline that could help me get the rest of my life in order and help me to get friends. The more worthless I felt, the more I resisted my treatment program, the more I tried to exercise, and the more meals I tried to skip. I didn’t actually want to get better, I wanted to be thin and I wanted to be perfect, someone worth associating with, and someone my parents could be proud of.


Have you ever been hospitalized for these diagnoses? If yes, please provide facility name(s) and age of admissions and discharges:
I was first hospitalized for malnutrition after struggling with Anorexia for several months, I was fifteen when I was send to the hospital; I spent three days at Advocate Good Sheppard Hospital in Barrington, Il. From there, my parents arranged to have me sent directly to the Chicago Center for Teen Rehabilitation to have my problem taken care of. I was there from June of 2010 (age 15) until November of 2010 (age 16). In November, I was transferred from the Chicago Center to The Hadley Institute, where I stayed until all the students were moved to St. Christina’s.

Are you aware of a history of psychiatric complaints in your family? If yes, please list family member(s), diagnoses, and how this affected you personally:
No.



Environmental History:

Are you aware of any complications during your birth? If yes, please explain below:
No.

Are you aware of any difficulties in development during your infancy, such as learning disabilities, speech impediments, etc? If yes, please explain below:
There were no difficulties.

Are you aware of any long term separation from your mother during your infancy? If yes, please explain below:
My mother was never around much throughout my childhood, I was mostly raised by nannies. Both of my parents work high paying jobs for a technology development firm, when they weren’t at the office; they were travelling across the United States and parts of Asia working to develop new technologies. It was rare to see my mom with my brother and me when we were younger.

Please describe the location and environment in which you grew up. Please list town and state, and what it was like and how this affected you:
I grew up in North Barrington, it one of those private neighborhoods where there’s a gate and you have either live there or have permission to get in. Not really a child friendly place. I grew up in a huge mansion, lots of servants, not a lot of love. For the most part, I had only my older brother Sean, who’s five years older, to hang out with. My parents were never home, we were raised by nannies and tutors. They were always nice to us, but that doesn’t really replace parents. They were getting paid to spend time with us, they weren’t there because they loved us, and if any of them got too attached, mother always fired them for being unprofessional. My older brother and I went to a private academy for a long time, I never really liked going there, but it was better than being at home because it wasn’t lonely. Looking back now I think that the way I grew up is a big part of the reason that I feel like I can never get enough attention. Maybe if my parents had just loved me, then everyone else would have too.

Please describe your educational history. How were you in school, both as a young child and in later grades? How were your grades? Did you enjoy school? Please answer below:
I’m not really the brightest student, I never have been and I never will be. I’m not good at studying, the stuff my various schools tried to teach me never really made sense. Actually, it made me feel really dumb; I always had low marks and my teachers always complained to my parents, who would just hire more tutors. I attended private school when I was younger, and they said I was just a naturally slow learner. Once I got older, I really stopped caring about school all together. It got to the point where my parents wouldn’t intervene when I did badly, even my tutors seemed to have just given up on me, so I gave up too. I always preferred to spend time playing music, that’s why my brother Sean and I did so well with our band, because I didn’t waste time studying, I practiced a lot. Sean got kicked out of private school when I was twelve and he was seventeen, it wasn’t long before I followed suit – getting kicked out on purpose for being disruptive and fighting with teachers too many times. Public school was better, it was easy to slip under the radar and the school gave up on me a lot quicker than the academy did.


Do/did you have many friends growing up? Do/did you have a best friend? If yes, please explain below:
I didn’t have very many friends when I was younger, I went to private school and I didn’t fit in well with the other kids, they never wanted to spend time with me because I wasn’t as smart as them, so they thought there was something wrong with me. My only true friend was my older brother Sean, he’s five years older than me, but he never acted like I was a pest. After he let me join his band, his band mates were sort of like friends to me – although I get the feeling they probably just kept me around because I was good for the band and because my brother insisted. I was always hanging out with my brother’s friends; they treated me like I was their age and let me party with them. Once I got to Hadley I made a few friends, but not very many. I think there’s just something about me that other people just naturally don’t like.

Do/did you pursue any extra curricular activities or talents? If yes, please explain below:
Music was the only extra curricular activity that I ever pursued. My brother had a band, and when I was thirteen, he let me join it to replace their singer who quit. I loved music more than anything else in my life, and I was in the band all the way up until I was first put in an institution.

If sexually active, please list age of onset and sexual preference below. If not sexually active, are you aware of a sexual preference?:
I got my first kiss at thirteen, and became sexually active at fourteen. Most of my interactions have been with males, but I also have an interest in females.


Legal History:

Do/did you ever abuse controlled substances, including but not limited to prescription medications, street drugs or alcohol? If yes, please explain below:
I’ve smoked pot and gotten drunk, but I only got caught for the drinking part. I played in a band, and we would drink at almost every post-show party; I didn’t use marijuana that often though.

Have you ever been convicted of a crime? If yes, please list conviction, age of conviction and circumstances below:
I got convicted for underage consumption when I was fourteen after I got caught drinking with some friends after a show that my band opened for.

If you answered yes to the above, please list sentences connected to these convictions below:
I had to pay a two hundred dollar fine.

Have you ever knowingly committed a crime for which you were not convicted or sentenced? If yes, please explain below:
I did more underage drinking than I was convicted for, but there was nothing other than that.



Personal Interview:

Describe yourself to the best of your ability in only five words:
Overweight, undisciplined, awkward, loser and worthless

Is the glass half empty, or half full? Explain your answer below:
I think that it depends on whose glass it is, some people get all the luck in life, and those are the ones that get to be happy and have glasses that are half full. For me though, there’s no reason for the glass to be half full. I wasn’t born smart or attractive, I have no social skills and people just don’t want to be around me. What is there in life to be positive about?

If you could change only one thing in your life, what would it be, and why?:
If I could, I would make it so that more people actually cared about me and wanted to spend time with me. If I didn’t feel so alone all the time, maybe I could focus on something other than trying to be perfect. If I had a lot of people who loved me, maybe I wouldn’t care about perfection at all, and then I would have never ended up in any rehabilitation centers or institutions. People who actually have friends don’t have to work day in and day out to fit in, they don’t have to work so hard, because they don’t try to impress anyone they meet.

How do you feel about your life and the things you have done in it, looking back? If you have committed crimes, how do you feel about those now?:
I don’t really feel bad about the underage drinking that I did, even when I got in trouble for it, my family didn’t really suffer because of it. I do feel bad for the Anorexia though; I never meant to upset my family, or let my life get so messed up that I ended up in institutions, but things got out of my control. I just wanted to be a little bit thinner and a little bit more likeable, that’s how it started, and it built up until it consumed my life. I feel bad that my band had to replace me, and that my family rarely gets to see me, I regret that they have to suffer just because I didn’t have control over my own life.

What are your goals in life, and how do you feel those would be best accomplished?:
When I was younger, my only goal in life was to make a career out of music. All I want now though, is to just feel like I can fit in with everyone else. I used to think that by being skinny and having a bit of attitude I could accomplish my goal, but now I have absolutely no idea. I’m starting to think that maybe there’s no way to accomplish my goal, maybe I’ll be alone forever. I’m hoping that there’s some way that being at St. Christina will help me improve myself so that other people won’t mind having me around.

Lastly, why have you chosen admission at St. Christina Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center, and how do you think this will help you toward your life goals?:
I’m going to St. Christina because I was already at Hadley, and I don’t have a choice in the matter. It might be good for me though, I need to work on getting more control in life, and on not being so pathetic and unstable. Maybe at St. Christina’s, unlike at Hadley, I can actually get further in my treatment, and learn to like myself and to get other people to like me too.
