Hey everyone!
So, like a lot of people, I've had lifelong struggles with mental health. I've had tourettes since I was very young, and in my teen/adult years, I have, and do, suffer from some pretty severe anxiety and depression problems.
Despite this, I'm actually REALLY happy with my life at the moment! My medication makes many of my problems almost non existent, and I've made a few choices to really turn things around lately. I've been a part of a twitch community discord for the better part of a year now, and I've made some really great friends on there. It's also through that channel that I've finally achieved my lifelong dream of playing actual Dungeons and Dragons! I'm now in 2 weekly games, one monthly game, and I've just started running a game for the children at work!! (I'm a learning support at school). Seeing the sheer enthusiasm from the children last night made me MEGA happy. They've never role played before, and they're already coming up with all these ideas as to what they're gonna do, where they wanna go, how they met etc. It's AWESOME :D
In addition to this, I've kinda had a rennaisance with games this last year. I went through a phase of playing zero games for 3 years, after a lifetime of gaming. I've just got back into gaming a lot more, and I'm really enjoying it. Combine that with a Crunchyroll sub to start watching some really fun anime (JJBA primarily), and you could really say I'm enjoying life again!
Oh finally, I've started walking to work in the morning, and combining that with some smarter choices, I've almost lost 2 stone in weight.
So that's me! What about you guys? I'd love to hear what's going well in your life at the moment!
