Not currently learning a skill
Is there a skill you are proud of yourself for learning?
Learning accounting related things makes me proud
How are you doing this week?
Not great but not horrible either. I learned I have to get my wisdom teeth out which I wasn't expecting that cost with moving, but here we are. On the other hand I am getting settled into my new place.
@wonderfulRainbow817 Accounting is n awesome skill and can become quite detailed!
I'm glad you're settled hope the wisdom teeth removal is simple and uncomplicated.
- Not currently anything
- Managing my health conditions
- Horrible. Trying to deal with my transphobic abusive mum
@NovaIsNB Managing a health condition s awesome, it makes life a it easier!
Sorry to hear your mum isn't accepting. Do you live with her?
@AffyAvo
Sadly yea I do
@AffyAvo
Is there a skill you are currently working on or would like to learn/improve on?
Staying focused and talking less
Is there a skill you are proud of yourself for learning?
no...
How are you doing this week?
Not the best. Scared my friend might leave me and home life sucks.
@EzraYourLocalTrans Have you come across resources to help with staying focused?
Having a tough home situation is really stressful! Would you like to share about what's happening with you and your friend?
Is there a skill you are currently working on or would like to learn/improve on?
I am working on exercises to hopefully improve my vision and hoping to be ready for vestibular therapy for balance soon.
Is there a skill you are proud of yourself for learning?
I am not very happy I am having to relearn to sew, but luckily I was pretty good at it before. The dog has shredded my down mattress cover for the second time and a brand new futon for my patio. That darned dog is a pain in the keister but at the same time, makes me do things I don't want to do, which in turn helps me relearn to do things, one way or another. I can't really see to sew, but I can feel to sew.
How are you doing this week?
So far, this week is going well. Keeping in good spirits and a little more lively than recent times. Hopefully a sign of healing, with more to come.
@adaptableOcean4193 I wish you well with the recovery! Sewing via feel sounds difficult, that's awesome you are relearning it even if the reason for it isn't so great. Feel free to pop in and let us know how the vision exercises and balance training are going!

Im working more on my skills in talking with people and drawing. I still in a art block for some time that i want to unstuck myself but atm its just been hard.
Is there a skill you are proud of yourself for learning?
well when I did draw, i learn how to color crytals with the shine and stuff.
How are you doing this week?
I been in a lot of emotional stuck and sad that I can't unstuck myself. It's like im trying to move forward but because I may have some attachment issues... it been difficult but the good news is I finished my paper work for my disability resource center so I can see what resources are available for me. I can't expect much since im a adult with a late diagnosed of autism but reaching out is the first step of finding peace with myself.
@Vivikun9
i like crystals too
i have late dignosed too bc im 13 and they just confermed but i was dignosed on the spectrum since 3 years old
@EzraYourLocalTrans
Yay crystal power 🔮 lol
I wasn't tested all around that age. My school just assumed I had a disability without testing so it's affected my skills as idk why I thanked very differently then my peers...
@Vivikun9
i blurt out random questions that r stupid apparently bc i think different about then other people too
@Vivikun9 Drawing crystals wih the shine brings up some beautiful images for me.
I hope the resources help, I know what you mean with things coming later being less help but I hope you find it more comfortable to communicate with others soon and you feel unstuck with what you learn.
I'm working on the skills of noticing and responding more quickly to my body's signals like hunger thirst and tiredness.
i'm proud of myself for learning how to ask for help
i'm doing okay this week, i have had a lot of pain but my mood has been good most of each day.
