So much has happened since the last time I have written, it's going to be impossible to convey it all to you. Just before the pandemic started I finally got my Autism diagnosis. I am Autistic and I can now say that, I guess I am just coming to terms with that and what it … Continue reading Am I good enough??
I am not an expert on many things, in fact I am actually an expert on very little. Having never lived alone I can't run a house, I'd have no clue how to buy or sell a home and how to go about sorting out and paying for it. I have a pretty poor sense … Continue reading I am an expert in….me!!
So today I want to talk about anxiety. I have suffered with anxiety for so long I don't actually remember what life is like without it. Anxiety is one of the reasons too that I've been struggling again to write. I have been really feeling as though people would only read my writing if it … Continue reading Anxiety, me and what it feels like
A few days ago I was talking to a friend of mine (who also blogs and can be found at https://danonwheels.wordpress.com/) and we got onto the subject of doctors, I had had a particularly unhelpful doctors appointment where 95% of my issues and concerns had been dismissed as something that she couldn't do anything about, … Continue reading Why being called a medical “enigma” or “puzzle” is not helpful
This post is one of the 22 I've had sitting ready to finish. I wanted to finish it now, mainly because it's happening again, I'm unable to go out as an issue with my mobility scooter is isolating me again and although last weekend I had a great trip to London (a birthday treat that … Continue reading When isolation becomes the norm…
As you may have noticed I've been absent for a few months again now. I've been struggling with both what to write, and with my own health and mental health. I'm hoping that I can start again fresh now it's the new year, I will rewrite some of the posts I've had sitting waiting and … Continue reading Why we need to change our perception of Autism
Yet again it's been a long time between blog posts, yet again I feel I have to apologise. I've been getting a lot of writers block recently and my mental health has taken a bit of a nose dive, these two things have clubbed together to make me feel very disillusioned with blogging. I've felt … Continue reading How a thoughtless act can ruin a trip out
Yes I started this post months ago and so yet again it seems a bit odd, but rather than re-write the whole thing I thought it best to just add to it. Unfortunately I added to it at a couple of points and then ended up not being able to finish!! I hope it's not … Continue reading When the crafty bug hits………again!!
Firstly this post has been written for a few weeks now, just waiting for photos which I took the other day. Unfortunately my brain fog, summer holidays and severe writers block has left me with no posts to update you with!! I'm hoping that I might be able to remedy this over the next few … Continue reading Meet my new mascot & the life of a grown up fiddler!!
Firstly I yet again have to start with an apology for the lack of posts. I had a couple of posts ready to go but without photo's before I went into hospital, but didn't want to just find photo's to use I wanted to have taken them myself (the found photos weren't quite right for … Continue reading When your body is shouting stop, what would you do?
