Hi,
I am new to this community. I just wanted to say hello and give a little introduction about myself.
I have always felt like i just dont fit but it took me 41 years to actually do anything about it. This came about due to a mental breakdown. I had been self medicating to deal with my brain for years. I have abused alcohol and substances. I have self harmed since the age of 8.
I saw a psychiatrist who diagnosed me with ASD and Bi polar disorder. Since then i have been doing a lot of learning about both conditions, and i am just starting to understand myself just a little bit. I am waiting to start CBT which i hope will help me to get perspective on my emotions.
Anyway enough about me. Im glad to be part of this community.
