Unconventional Advocacy is a Concept...
I am passionately working on launching.
My life has been a cavalcade of screwed up misses and communicational fails. Fails that've left me feeling crappy and subpar.I have ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, Complex PTSD, Generalized Anxiety and some type of undiagnosed autoimmune issue. Most times, going to the doctor makes me as if I were an inferior human being.
Several times, I've steeled myself just to the doctor and not have hurt feelings by the time I leave their office, but that almost never happens.I was alone. No "advocate". No family.
That being said, I won't be living in the sad, "too dark inside the house" way that I was living previously. I've consciously chosen to press forward and turn my rage and willingness to learn and understand these things that make like nearly unbearable to its sufferers: anxiety, severe depression, atypical depression, cyclothymia, bipolar disorder, dependent personality disorder. The list goes on and on.
And when your issue is "invisible", who can you depend on to help you other than yourself?
My objective is to assist and advocate for people with severe anxiety, Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Major Depressive Disorders.
"My goal is to reduce the anxiety that paralyzes by offering to coach them through small services. These services will include witnessing, listening and generally being available for consultation and support in my local area or online when I can be there."
I hope to help a diverse group of people acquire the tools they need to achieve their short and long-term goals.
Right now, I'm just blogging about my life in hopes to resonate with people I wouldn't normally meet in my everyday life.
