This is my first Christmastime since I've been diagnosed as autistic. It's because of this that I'm being much kinder to myself & meeting my own needs. My family also has greater insight into why I am the way I am and why I need extra support. Diagnosis is such a positive for me #actuallyautistic

What do you think of my badge? Remember, this too shall pass. I bought this for myself during the pandemic when I had to shield. I still keep it on my bedside unit now as a reminder to have faith in myself and keep going through tough times. #motivation #wellbeing #mentalhealth

Everyday I wake up with my heart full of gratitude that I'm alive. Each new day is a gift, even with lots of stressors in my life ❤️ #gratitude #mentalhealth

Sometimes, by saying "No" to other people, you are saying "Yes" to meeting your own needs. #motivation #mentalhealth

It's nice to be here! How is everyone today? I hope whatever your plans are, you get to do something to benefit your own #mentalhealth
