Bio

My journey 

If it’s in the DSM-5 I’ve probably been diagnosed with it at some point. The only diagnosis I claim are BPD, PTSD and ADHD.

I have found the use of DBT skills has decreased the frequency of my depression and anxiety while increasing my ability to self regulate and effectively communicate.

My interests 

I enjoy meditating, walking my dogs, taking pictures, learning, and good conversation.

Area of expertise

compassion, type one diabetes, special education 

My mantra 

i am present

i am trying

i can succeed 💕

I ‘learned’ via TV

Sandy How to get a laugh? I Love Lucy What’s going on in the world? Dateline The list is forever long. Mind you I’m 35…I don’t know if these were the typical shows kids my age were watching from ages 5-11 but I’m guessing no. I was raised by boomers…so it makes sense. Living like this threw me head first into a world of idealism which was followed by rage when things didn’t pan out as I ‘thought’ it was meant to. Instead of learning via tv I now use it as a means to relate to myself and others. When trying to interact with others I can often be heard saying “that makes me think of [insert name of show]” …then I badly try to explain it to them. All in all relationships feel difficult. Point of all this is wondering if 1) does anyone else do this and how does it show up in everyday life 2) what’s your go to show? I find all of New Girl relatable
