Hi, my name is Abi

abimav

I’m a student who brings a lot of heart, creativity, and determination to everything I do. I’m autistic and have ADHD, which means I see the world in a unique and thoughtful way. I also manage anxiety, but I’m proud of how well I navigate challenges and stay focused on my goals. These parts of me shape my strengths. I’m detail‑oriented, imaginative, and able to dive deeply into the things I care about.

In my free time, I love to read and colour in. Books help me relax and escape into different worlds, while colouring gives me a calm, mindful space to unwind. Both hobbies bring me comfort and joy, and they’re a big part of how I look after my wellbeing. They also reflect my creative side and my love for quiet, peaceful activities that help me recharge.

Welcome to the community @abimav! Thank you for telling us about yourself, and it's so lovely to read how proud you are about getting through your personal challenges day to day. What are you studying at the moment?

I find colouring really mindful too, it's my go-to activity if I need some space to unwind and concentrate on something.
