Hi there!
new to SANE, and just wanted to say hi! I have ASD, ADHD, PMDD and am still learning how to manage in a healthy way! I think I’ve done enough psychological treatment for a moment and was looking for more lived experience and likeminded people.
I work in a helper role to others, so feel like it gets hard sometimes to make sure I’m not just burnt out after work and weekends.
Excited to have a look around and hopefully make some connections 🖤☺️

Thank you all in advance for having shared your stories and experiences!

Thank you for sharing! I have my two cats who I adore and they can often be the light you need!
