Hi everyone!!

pinklollipop15Senior Contributor15 Sept 2021, 10:06 pm AEST

Hi everyone!!

I have jumped in on the forums and haven't introduced myself.

I'm joining these forums to support others. I have experienced some mental health issues in my life and have people in my life who have experienced various mental health and substance issues. I have had good experiences with social workers, counsellors and psychologists at various stages in my life. I have experienced a lot in my life both positive and negative and feel I have a lot of knowledge and experiences so I can help others.

I am enjoying the forums so far and am finding it great for tips in my own life around self-care and also enjoy reading the stories and contributing where I can. It's great!

Hope to connect with you soon!

Hey @pinklollipop15,

I suffer from several MH issues, I find it hard sometimes to find the right people to connect with, I mainly am a quiet one at home.

I see a psychologist and have NDIS, which is helpful, I tend to struggle with everyday things, I also have a disability which makes me struggle more.

I hope to see you around more

Hi @Fluttershy1
Lovely to connect with you! I'm sure we have things in common since you are a candy dipper and I'm a pinklollipop hahaha!

I am glad that you are finding the Psychologist and NDIS helpful. It does sound like a struggle. Thankyou for your kind words.

I think you have great strength by just writing what you have and I hope these forums allow you to connect with the right people.

See you around!
