I'm Beet,
I am 41 and been in and out of therapy for the last 20 years or so. I think it's helped, I think I'm doing better at 41 then I was at 21 for example, but I'm grateful for 21 year old me to stick it out without the tools and support I have now. I had a rough childhood, I was the ghost of the family in a lot of ways. I have been diagnosed with autism and told I'm "in the EUPD/CPTSD area" but I've found treatment and support for CPTSD has been the most useful for me.
I'm going through a bit of a rough patch and looking for ways I can get the support I need to get through it.
Outside of that I enjoy crafting, writing fanfiction, drawing, and I'm a mature post grad student.
Hello, Beet, and welcome. I'm sorry you're going through a rough patch. I'm glad you found us and hope you find a little comfort here. I love drawing, too. I find it therapeutic.
Hi Beet and a warm welcome to Out of the Storm! :heythere:
Sorry to hear you're going thru a rough patch at the moment, I hope being here and sharing about what's going on will help.
I love to craft too, but am stick figures all the way when it comes to drawing ;D Narc Kiddo is quite good and has some samples somewhere on the forum.
I'm curious what was your area of graduate studies (if you are okay to share that of course)?
Hi Beet! Welcome to the forum. I am new here too and look forward to getting through our rough patches together, to journeying together. Congrats to us for taking the step by joining this forum. Yay for us! ;D
