Hi, my name is PotatoHead85!

Hey everyone 👋
I’m new here and just wanted to say hi! You can call me PotatoHead85 partly because I’ve got a weird sense of humour, and partly because mashed potato is basically my spirit animal.
I’m disabled, dealing with chronic back pain, mobility issues (I use a scooter to get around), and mental health stuff like anxiety and depression. Life’s a bit of a rollercoaster some days, but I try to keep things light where I can. I’m also possibly on the autism spectrum, but haven’t been officially assessed yet.
I joined this community to connect with people who get it who understand the struggles and maybe even have a few tips, laughs, or just kind words to share. And hopefully, I can do the same for others.
If you’ve made it this far, thanks for reading. Looking forward to chatting with you all
