Hi, my name is Kaliwax!
Hi All, I am a newbie my name is Kallum. I suffer from Anxiety, Depression, Autism and Dyspraxia, I am having a tough time with a lot of things online, and employment and other things. I am being really difficult for myself, I found this forum via google, and it took me a lot of courage for me to join here, as I struggle to talk and communicate with others, I hope I can find a lot of support here! It would be great if I could and connect with others! Its a big step for me. I just want to get to know others and improve myself with others. Life is difficult for me, but by being open and talking to others is a step. Small steps, even for me is a big step.
I struggle with just generalised anxiety, but my autism plays a factor into the social element of it as well! I have lost so many friends over the last few months due to my anxiety. I don't feel bad or sad all the time or feel anxious, just when things get tough and something that triggers it.
I've tried, work, volunteering, numerous times it scares me so when people like Oakeshott, call you a parasite, ect, it feels horrible.
Nice to meet you all.
