Bio
Hi there! My name's Michael and I'm from the UK. I'm in my mid-twenties and I suffer from long-term depression and anxiety. I am transgender (trans man) and I am also bisexual/pansexual. I am a survivor of child molestation. I am here because I believe in treating people with kindness and making a difference in people's lives, and having been through so much myself I want to use my experiences to help others when I am able to. I am particularly experienced with depression, anxiety, bullying, LGBTQ support, work stress (feels like work is a constant stress!) and traumatic experiences but I am willing to listen to and support anyone to the best of my abilities.

Thank you so much for listening. Your advice and input, I really appreciate it.
Very kind, gave me a lot of space to get my thoughts out, supportive and an awesome listener!
He was able to put into word what I was feeling, when I couldn't. He was understanding and didn't seem to think that I was being silly. Although we didn't speak that long he was a great listener. Thank you! :)
