About me-

Hey, I'm Nia and I'm 15. I am Christian. I struggle with Mental Health problems myself and I have been diagnosed with anxiety, depression and have prominent signs of PTSD and ADHD. My mum used to be and still is very mentally abusive. My mum has emotionally and physically abused me which has damaged our relationship to the point where we don't really have one. I'm trained in CPR resuscitation, Makaton (sign language used whilst talking), Seizure first aid and regular first aid.  

My sexuality is straight. I am vegetarian and believe in cruelty free products. 

I love football and I am a massive football fan, I support; Brighton and Hove Albion and Spurs. I enjoy playing Fortnite and FiFA! I love going out for bike rides with close family as a way of releasing stress. I also enjoy coloring/drawing/sensory toys and helps me cope with my anxiety. 

My pronouns are: She/Her/Hers (please refrain from calling me honey, dear, babe, ma'am, baby or miss) Please call me: Nia, Lion or Golden. Thank you! :) 

Listener twin -  @TabbyCat97 - Carmen's helped me so much, she's my best friend and always will be. I'm so proud of her for everything she's achieved on Cups and off Cups. 

Fun Facts about me!- 

- My favorite movies are High School Musical (Movie 1, 2 and 3!) and Greatest Showman.

My Triggers-

Self-harm, Suicide, Dementia, Cancer, Sexual health, COVID-19, Diabetes, Relationships topic.  Saying “take care”. I’m happy to have a chat about any other topic not listed in my triggers.

Please dear members**, don't message me to have a casual conversation, as I'm here to focus on people who need emotional support rather than get to know people closely and make friendships. 

My Listening Style-

In the beginning I remain quiet, In order to understand what exactly is going on.
Then, I begin asking open ended questions, in order to understand the issue better and in case I feel like there are some parts that need to be filled.
The next thing I do is try to 
reflect back to what you've said and show an understanding attitude towards you.
At times, I also share my own issues to make you feel 
more comfortable in the chat and to show you relatable stories. 

What to do if you're not happy with the support/help you have received from me-
If you're not happy with the support you have received from me, let me know and I will try to resolve it.

...See more Happyyy February! (Finally) Soooo, I thought I'd wish you all a awesome February and do some icebreakers! 1) What is your favorite month and why? - Mine is, June because that's when my birthday is plus it gets really summery in June 🌞 2) What's your favorite useless fact? Mine is, kids toy slinkies are 82 feet long! 3) If you could start a charity, what would it be for and why? - would definitely be for teens and young people's mental health. Over here in the UK, there isn't enough mental health training, or resources, and there is so much stigma around mental health. Share your answers in the replies below, I look forward to seeing them! And happy February! Feel free to tag a friend or two! Tagging @TabbyCat97 😃
