Heeeyyyyy! I bet you never thought you'd see another one of these bad boys, but here I am! SURPRISE! I haven't posted since the 27th July (shocked face), and omg SO much has changed and happened since back then. Therapy-wise, after just two sessions of EMDR therapy for my relationship trauma (the first promising, the …
I'll try to cut a long story short. In my previous few posts, I talked about how I was supposed to be doing EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) therapy to help me process past trauma, but then my therapist said I wasn't engaging with my emotions enough for it to work. She referred me to …
Hello again! In a recent post, I explained that my therapist wanted to pass my treatment over to a psychologist specializing in autism and autistic traits, but that the wait was 2-3 months, and therefore, she referred me to see a CBT therapist in the meantime who deals a lot with the autism spectrum. This …
I talk about self harm in this post - just so you know! Please don't read on if you feel this might trigger or upset you! This is just going to be a short celebratory post today. I think it's important to mark a milestone such as this to look back on and remind myself …

Someone should make me the Queen of apologising for not writing often, saying I'll write a post soon, and then just not doing it for another few months. Oops! In my defense, life has well and truly been punching me in the guts recently. It's been exam period, so I've been revising a tonne, and …
Hello, friends, once again! I come at you today from my bath. I recently got a bath tray and it's literally changed my life. As in, now I have a handy place for my phone (very carefully), laptop, candles, snacks, and other goodies, I spend more time in my bath now than ever! Which is …
So, it's no secret that I have OCD. I talk about it a lot, both in general life and online, like here on my blog and on social media. Not only have I suffered with it quite badly, but I'm also absolutely fascinated by it (so much so that my final year research project next …
Once again, it's been a massively long time since I last wrote a blog post. Life's been absolutely hectic for the past few months. All of my time has been taken up by either uni, taking care of my nan, and trying to juggle all kinds of other things at once. It's definitely been stressful, …
I'm gonna jump right into this. I just finished reading a book which has entirely changed my perception of all things body, weight, food, exercise, diet, and more. This book is 'Body Positive Power' by Megan Jayne Crabbe. Aka, the most important book I've read in a long time. My sister Chlo recommended it to …
We Will Be OK.
