The Mix / Who am I?

Who am I?

I guess I'm not who I want to be! I'm everything everyone else wants but not what I want.

Hi! I'm Little_Vamp, a 17 year old Yorkshire lass!

Since I was diagnosed with my first mental illness when I was 12 people have shaped me to be exactly what they want me or need me to be. Told me GCSEs and A-Levels to take, told me who's a good friend and who isn't, what job I should be aiming for etc.

Now I've decided I'm going to be and do what makes me happy and not what everyone else pushes me towards!

Bring on me!
