Happy new month to everyone.
Ocotber begins to be a decorating time for me with Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday's coming up.
This month is about Mentalhealth Awareness and my check in posts will have some topics and questions for all of us. I am also going to be doing some discussions on mental health this month, so if there is a particular topic you would like done, please pm me.
Here are some things to begin the mental awareness week:
Each year, millions of Americans face the reality of living with a mental health condition. However, mental illness affects everyone directly or indirectly through family, friends or coworkers.
Lime Green Awareness Ribbons for Mental Health Awareness,

@pamharley003
Thank you for posting this information. I just found the 7 cups website and program last night. I had the pleasure of chatting with a listener late last night. I have been struggling for a while now. The holidays are approaching and the fall/winter months are always a struggle for me with severe depression. That combined with some major life changes has made it difficult to cope. I feel a bit better today from yesterday. I am thankful to have a community to be a part of to fight off loneliness and depression. I think the biggest thing I have taken away from the resources is that to get better, I have to do something about it. It takes action for change. No matter how depressed I feel, I have to push and fight to get anything to change. Nobody can win this fight for me, but they can support me while I try. I can't lay around all day feeling sorry for myself and expect things to magically get better. There is no one easy answer and it will take time, but I have more hope now than I have had in many, many months. So thank you for reading this post. I am happy to be here and always up for a chat.

I love the autumn the leaves changing colour
Hi everyone... I'm feeling a lot of emotion tonight. I'm not sure how many emotions or even exactly which ones I'm experiencing... that's autism for you I guess.
I'm in a ton of pain, but that's normal... physical pain anyway. I've got way more than usual psychological pain hitting me over the past year. Days like today when the to meet... no crash into each other - it can get pretty hard.
I've been in tears several time today. But, I'm not overcome by sadness, there's more to it than that. There's a mix of joy, nostalgia, humor and mischief all bouncing around inside my head.
Honestly I feel really creative... I often wonder how much pain works as a catalyst to creativity... especially in some of the greatest works of art. I know that some of my most creative times as a writer and photographer are born from pain.
Anyway... thought I'd stop in here and jot down my ramblings. An autistic mind at work I suppose... Maybe I'll write a poem later.
