Hello everyone,
I am happily married to my best friend and we have dreams add a cat to our new family.
I am currently working as a part time writer, and working another job as well. I have an intense love for writing. I do have a hope to write books that have characters that reflect a healthy understanding of parts of the spectrum.
( I am on the Autism Spectrum and I don't really like how it is often representation is not well done, but I do realize that the spectrum is really hard to write out because it is a spectrum. It is like asking two people what their favorite color is and they say that it is in the rainbow.)
I am actually working on a few of my issues. After witnessing a very traumatic suicided I went from high functioning to low functioning on the spectrum. I have been focusing on writing every single day since, being that I was no longer physically able to write or read. With help from therapy, God, and a ton of effort I pulled myself from low functioning back to middle ground. That is not for everyone, but from a personal goal of mine I have always wanted to be a writer and my hardships will hopefully make me stronger.
I am getting stronger because I getting to a place that I can heal and help people who have gone through seeing death and love on those who had to fight to pretend they are neurotypical.
Yes, I still struggle with not being neurotypical. It sucks, but 24 years of people telling me to be more normal then being diagnosed with Autism at 24 I have only a few years to understand why it was so hard for me as a kid and an adult to understand why I was different.
I'm different and that is alright.
Feel free to message me if you want to. I will take awhile to get to you, because for some reason texting people brings me a weird fear, but I fight to be able to handle it.
