Hey all! I'm Noah, 29F from the Netherlands.
I've been diagnosed with ASD (no specific type) for a couple years now and it's helped me a lot with getting to know myself better. Unfortunately I have a lot of experience as a mental health patient. I have spent around four years of my life in open as well as closed wards due to issues related to ASD and comorbid diagnoses. However, I am doing very well currently and live in an assisted living home.
I am interested in self improvement, mental and physical health, buddhism, spirituality in general, working out (I lift, dance and do yoga, sometimes I take a kickboxing class as well to switch things up a lil), kpop, Japan, singing, beauty and animal rights. I enjoy reading self help books as well, and rabbits are my special interest.
I have experience with psychotic tendencies, social anxiety, GAD, severe depression, AvPD, anorexia as well as BED, BDD and OCD. I have managed to recover from most of these and enjoy talking about my experiences + helping others on their paths toward recovery.
I'm looking to connect with other aspies on here in general but it would be especially amazing to find people to talk to about giftedness, animal rights/veganism and self improvement in the broadest sense (mental, physical and spiritual).
Thank you for reading and have a lovely day!
