Introduction... Again

Tweet

I've deleted my first introduction a few days ago, as my social anxiety skyrocketed as usual. I've also noticed how lovely and highly intellectual this community is, and I know myself well enough that my words would probably stain this place. And it's not just the ADHD and being an antisocial introvert either. To top that off, I thought I was recovering from Covid just fine, until... I've lost my speech. I started getting these weird migraines and then at some point when my husband asked what's wrong, I couldn't answer the question. I had to type it down. There's nothing wrong with my voice, I just find myself unable to find the words, form the sentence and speak it out. When I do try to do that, my migraines come back at full weight. I wish I could say that I blog and journal just fine, but now it takes me 4 times the effort and time to type something. Discussions back and forth are not my forte either. So when the admin asked me why I deleted my post, I mentioned my social anxiety disorder and asked if I could just read your lovely discussions instead, to which they said it was fine. But then someone sent me a message, said they noticed me but that I don't post anything, and they offered assistance, said message I could not reply, I got an error saying that "this user doesn't currently allow messages". So this is what this post is about. Basically replying to the private message through here. I'm sorry if this post doesn't make much sense, it hurt (my head) to type. Oh, the introduction: Special needs mom (autistic daughter and son with cured apraxia of speech). 35 years old. From Europe, an expat within Europe. Not at my right mind. Thanks.
