Looking for listener

...See more Hi there, im looking for a listener who might be able to help me bridge the gap between therapy sessions when my therapist is on break. She is taking two weeks off around the holidays and, being autistic, I always find this disruption in our schedule extremely challenging. Some of what I’m working on with her includes trauma, self-harm, depression, anxiety, and chronic suicidal ideation. Im hoping to have some times scheduled (possibly a check in during my usual therapy times?) as scheduled interaction feels like it would work best for me. It is very difficult for me to trust and open up to strangers, however, so I need someone who can be extremely patient. Please reach out if you feel you might be able to help out. Thank you!

...See more Hi, everyone. New here. I have struggled with depression for a very long time, although have only recently been given a formal diagnosis. I world love any feedback, coping skills, or any other helpful suggestions on how you deal with things like persistent intrusive thoughts as well as suicidal ideation. These are two specific things I don't feel as though I really have a grip on. Thanks for listening I look forward to reading any feedback

...See more Hi everyone. I'm newly diagnosed autistic, level one. I am also diagnosed with trauma, severe depression and social anxiety. I don't have much of a support system in my life - really just my partner and my dog. I guess I’m really just looking for some like-minded individuals I can communicate with so I can learn more about myself and feel more comfortable in my world. I'm not very good at communication even online. Please be patient with me Thanks for listening
