For the first few paragraphs of this post I’m going to be braindumping because I honestly have no idea where to start this post, I just know I want to talk about my journey. Do I start with when I first started realising I was ‘different’? Do I start with how much time I spentContinue reading “Autism: My Journey (Journal?)”

Issues and Abuse: My Story (long form)
Only a passing relevance to the post, but I hope you all are having a wonderful pride month and continue to do so. I wasn’t planning on writing, but it came up and came out and I think it’s important to talk about. There are no pictures, products, or self promos as it’s not appropriateContinue reading “Issues and Abuse: My Story (long form)”
I’m Not OK
This isn’t really a blog post as far as I would usually call it, but I just wanted to write something, anything, even if it’s short, even if it’s not well written or anything like that. It will be ramble, it will be unedited, it may have typos and unfinished thoughts, but this is anContinue reading “I’m Not OK”
Blog 18: Fear AKA Defence Mode AKA What Happened Last Week
Hi Weasels! Let’s talk about last week… My lack of blog may have come as a surprise and I’d like to go into it.

Blog 13: Migraines
Migraines have been a part of my life since primary school. For those who don’t know, a migraine is similar to a headache in that it’s an ache in your head, but they frequently come with other symptoms including nausea, photophobia (aversion to light), audiophobia (aversion to sound), brain fog (a feeling of not havingContinue reading “Blog 13: Migraines”
Blog 11: Revealing Some Anxiety
I have an extreme view on Covid. I know this. I know a lot of people won’t agree with everything here and some may share some or all of my opinions, but I want to be recklessly honest otherwise what is the point of my content?! Sorry for the wall of text this post willContinue reading “Blog 11: Revealing Some Anxiety”
Blog 10: Tenniversary and the future of this blog
Not counting mini blogs/quick updates! They don’t count! Some of my friends and family may be slightly surprised by this post as I’ve been working on one that I’ve mentioned to people, but decided that it’s not a good fit for this milestone! That will pushed to next week New Logo and the future ofContinue reading “Blog 10: Tenniversary and the future of this blog”
Blog 8: Two Weeks Later…
Couple of quick updates before we go: As promised here’s a link to the podcast I was on: STA Podcast Episode 2. In the last couple of weeks I ventured out of the house to see two friends whom I’ve only seen virtually since lockdown. We went swimming in a local loch which was, let’sContinue reading “Blog 8: Two Weeks Later…”
