How does this work?

This is a weekly event in the Welcome Lounge chatroom. As a newbie, you should see the room on your chat list. It is an open room but we meet up at 5PM ET.
Hello all!
@hardworkingPlane6006
Greetings from Aoteroa New Zealand. I am a middle aged fellah with four Adult kids. I came here as part of my 'turn it around' journey I guess. I had a seven year spell of being stuck, lost my career working in mental health - after starting treatment, gained a lot of weight, lost mobility, sleep issues, avoiding people yadda yadda yadda.
But it is all good. I started watching Youtube videos, the good ones (Tracey Marks Psychiatrist) and ZOE Science based nutrition. Then I came across an ADHD video and realised that it's me too....like screaming in your face you have this stuff on max.
So I changed my diet completely, I started exercising slowly and started trying to improve my relationship with my family Doctor. Good sleep is still elusive but improving little by little. And well I thought this would be a safe place to start to be around human beings and use my social bone. End rant.
P.S.
I am very slow with using a PC and the interweb in general so will try to work this stuff out as I go, hope to talk with you all at some stage. Take care.
😊thank you, super excited to be here, mainly to mingle
