Mental Health Update - ValorX77 - 02-16-2023
It’s been a couple of months (9 in fact), since I’ve last written one of these. So I’d thought I would give an update on how things were.
I cannot believe I’m typing this, but I’ve made the deans list at my college as a student with autism. Never doubt anyone’s ability.
I’ve also been confirmed to be pre-diabetic, which has caused me to heavily modify my diet, and that is has also given me a gout attack on my ankle.
As for myself mentally, doing the sigs always makes me feel like I’m doing a passion, and I’m expressing myself in a new way. I’m not fully out of the woods yet, I still often cry at the middle of the night for no reason.
Therapy has helped me become less deranged, and I’m tamer than ever, however, I can still have an angry outburst every once in a while.
Keep following your dreams, here’s looking at you kid.
