I'm a 51 year old Christian neurodivergent. I love music, art, animal, plants, and have struggled with depression all my life. I have several chronic pain disorders, as well. My faith is key to my identity. I rely heavily on Him to sustain me through the difficulties that I face while living with chronic illnesses. I remain inclusive of those of other religions, identities, and differences. We are all created equal in His image; His love covers all. I have a horrible propensity to procrastinate. Motivation is a constant struggle for me. It has been made all the worse since Mom's passing in December of 2025. This is not my first encounter with intense grief. As a freshman in college, I learned that my best friend had taken her life. I've dealt with a lot of guilt over the years since. Mom's final months have just added new layers to that guilt. In my head, I know the price was paid to remove all guilt, but getting that to my heart is another matter. These feelings are something I continue to work on in my own personal therapy. I pray that my experiences can be used to benefit others. I aim to be supportive of all views and struggles; to help in the best way that I can.
