I do, thank you for asking :)

CPTSD + ADHD + Autism = a mess, I'm fine so long as my brain never stops. I'm hoping to buy a house in another province to get as far away from my family as possible.

Welcome to the club. Sad club but a club anyway.

Feel free to hit me up on matrix if you want to talk (disclaimer: no trauma dumping plz). Also, there is an autism community on world and a matrix chat you can join if you like with over 100 members. Very chill and nonviolent place imo.

I think people with a bad past understand each other silently. As long as we can stay nonviolent towards each other, we make good running mates (metaphor).

No pressure, I‘m just trying to be clear and complete.
