I think people forget that not every traumatic experience results in trauma. And not every trauma results in ptsd. It is completely normal to go through traumatic experiences and not be traumatised by it, just like it’s completely normal to be traumatised.

I feel like being autistic and living with cptsd means I’ll never achieve the life I so desperately want. I just want to be able to thrive and have my shit together but I think my expectations for myself are maybe a little high because I am constantly pushing myself into burnout

I have an itchy nose, a sore throat and I have just sneezed at least 10 times in a row… hayfever season is here folks

I’m thinking around a week 🥰

Anyone interested with £5 portrait illustrations to help me raise money to pay some bills?? £5 per person ❤️

I just paid my final payment on my IVA and it feels like such a momentous occasion. It’s been 5 years of paying my debt off monthly and I can’t believe it’s come to an end. I’m not completely out of debt, but it’s significantly reduced and I’m so proud of myself!!!

I spoke with Molly at length & have decided to not pursue the clinical doctorate this year regardless of if I get any interviews or not. Working 1-1 with patients I feel I’m just not clinically there yet and need more experience before I feel confident enough to do the doctorate

I’m sorry but you will never be able to convince me that pandas aren’t just people in suits.. this is the only conspiracy I subscribe to and I will die on this hill because I’m sorry but what? They’re just not real. How is that a real animal?? We’ve been duped

Something that I didn’t realise was autism is never knowing when is my turn to speak in conversations, especially ground conversations. I’ll still be trying to figure out when it’s my time to speak 20 minutes and 4 topic changes later

Honestly don’t understand how or when my obsession with Xaden Riorson started but here I am.. a lesbian obsessed with a fictional male dragon rider who has my whole heart and I would quite literally burn the world down for him and I’m not even sorry about it

I wish it was sunny so I could read in the garden, maybe with a fruity cider, and some classical music playing.. but alas I live in wales and it is currently raining

Definitely!!!

It’s a bit disheartening because they don’t provide feedback at this stage so I have no idea what the weaknesses of my application were, but nevertheless I still have 3 unis to hear back from!!

Thank you lovely x

You’re so sweet. They don’t give feedback at this stage no. You only get feedback if you have an interview but are unsucccessful after the interview

Thank you!!! I don’t have much hope tbh 😭

So I didn’t get an interview for Southampton for the doctorate. Just waiting to hear back from Bath, Plymouth and Exeter. Really really nervous.

Unfortunately my wife does not understand the elite combo that is beans and cheese on top of something (like a jacket potato or toast) and therefore sadly it seems I will never understand her

100% yes!!

There was a time that getting a frapp would cause too much panic. Too many calories and too much time exercising to burn it off. It was easier to avoid.

Fast forward to 2025, it’s now one of my favourite drinks and I love every sip, not a hint of panic in sight❤️

I have reached chapter 3 of edits for the 4th draft of my novel, and I’ve already added 4000 words. I’m aiming for 80,000 and I’m currently at 60,000 which will be completely possible. I’m really enjoying this round of edits!!

My mum has just informed me that I need to go to church for the healing powers of holy water and when I said catholics are too fond of the gays I’ll get burnt she said ‘god has to get with the times, and anyway if he hadn’t you’d have been burnt a long time ago’

I do yes so I know where to add more detail and things like that, I think the biggest feedback was it felt too much triggering content for young adult but at the same time is very accurate of what psychiatric wards are like

I really don’t know what I’m doing with the novel I’ve written. I’m now writing up my 4th draft. I have had so many rejections from literary agents. I’m thinking of changing it to a contemporary fiction rather than young adult. Maybe a little less gritty and more imagery

Mine healed really well, I had no issues!!

See a tattoo, post a tattoo

My new froggo addition

Today I am back to being a whole week without purging. I felt so guilty after I was sick last week for the first time in 4 months because it felt like a massive step backwards, but I’ve managed to not let it turn into a relapse and I’m so so proud of myself for that
