Progress
4 years ago
Lots of progress over time. Lots more exercise. Managing my ADHD in my own way until meds can help. On the path to getting back onto HRT (Though maybe I'm having second thoughts about that? I don't know. I think it helped, but also presenting isn't so easy for me. Oof.)
I've been so isolated most of my life and moved around so much that it's really hurt my ability to interact, and I've had real difficulties figuring out social. I have all my life really. The ADHD and mood swings didn't help. Now I have something for the mood swings.
Been practicing journaling physically for the past three days, writing down progress and things I'm grateful for. It's hard to believe how much I've been getting done over just a few days, all told, even if it's as simple as clearing out some of the junk in my room and setting myself up, doing little things.
All told tho? I'm a very broken mess of a person and it's hard to have much confidence I can deal with the world. That anxiety just won't leave me.

Speaking as someone who took no steps for most of his life and then was hit with the revelation "Maybe if you do something to solve your problems they'll stop ruining your life?" I have some experience on this.
