It is cold outside (from where I live.) Make sure to try and stay warm. Love yourself, friend.

Bio

Hello. Welcome to my page.

I am a 15-year-old autistic female and I have ADHD and PTSD. I also struggle with depression and anxiety.

I mainly came here to look for people to talk too throughout the day as I feel lonely. In the winter months, I feel sadder and more emotional. I don't know if this means I have SAD, but it really sucks for me to slog through those sort of months.

I am in all advanced classes and I live in a big high school. I feel sad throughout the morning as I hate the three classes I originally go through. I perk up a bit later in the afternoon, but I find it hard to cope with a lot of what goes on in the world. I have a sensitive heart and I am really emotional. I am trying to accept my emotions and who I am, but this inner struggle with myself has been constant throughout my entire life.

In a lighter note, however, I do enjoy to write and I want to learn more things. I also like franchises like Sonic the Hedgehog. I want to make some new friends here, so I can feel less lonely. My favorite character is Tails, and I inspire to be him one day because he can believe in myself. I am trying to believe in myself too. It's hard to go through this constant tired pain everyday, but I am trying. I hope you are having a good day or night yourself. We can do this. Thanks for reading.

...See more Hello. To begin with: throughout my life I have always struggled with loving myself for who I am and accepting my emotions and feelings. I want to talk and connect with other people who are still struggling or want to provide tips on how you can take time and accept yourself for who you are. This also counts for both physical (like body image) and mental (personality and emotions.) What do you guys think about self-care? Do you have any tips or strategies you have used personally to help with self-love? Do you have any other tips to help other people to learn how to self-love themselves and their faults more? I would like to know. 💙

...See more Hello. My name is emotionalpal710, but you can refer to me as "Emotion" or "Pal." I mainly came here as I am struggling with coping with school. Winter break ends after this weekend and I keep thinking about how terrifying school is to me. I have also struggled with friendships and people throughout my life. I am struggling with a certain online friend right now, but I don't know what to do. I am happy to be part of this community today. I will try to participate often. It especially helps when I have someone to talk too as I usually bottle up all my feelings away unless to very specific people. Some lighter things I like Sonic the Hedgehog, drawing (although I have been lacking motivation lately), writing, etc. I want to get a job as a computer programmer or some sort of computer job in my adult life. I feel really afraid of what is to come, but I am trying to suck it up and be strong. A big thing with me is that I dislike being a fearful and defenseless coward. I have some anger issues because I want to try and force myself to be strong and take the pain I get with a brave and unemotional face. Maybe here, I will learn to try and embrace my emotions more. I am trying to accept myself for who I currently am, but it is hard. Either way, however, it is a pleasure to be here. I hope everyone is having a good day/night, we can do this day by day. Little by little.
