hello nerds!
’tis me!

Why I’m here. What this space is for.
Me, honestly. But if you relate to anything I share, then maybe it’s for you, too.
Life — my life — is and has always been a disaster. There's always something swirling around in my brain, weighing on my chest, or stuffed deep in my body like a goblin. And I need to get it out of me before I freaking explode!
So, I decided I needed to scream into the void. My version of self-healing.
I’ll be sharing my journey with what I’ve been calling “learning to be autistic, as an adult,” my past & all the trauma that thinks it’s fun to haunt me randomly, the many random & bizarre things that make me laugh, and really whatever else pops into my head at any given time, which, with ADHD, can literally be anything!
If you’re also neurodivergent, healing from trauma, or just looking for a real, unfiltered mental health blog (with a heavy focus on mental), sweet! Welcome to my world.
I’m not a writer. I’m not professional. I don’t got good grammar. I’m not trying to be anything other than me — so you get what you get. Hopefully you enjoy the show!
