I never claimed to be normal

Random neurodivergent expression

Boo. It’s me. ๐Ÿ‘ป

My name is Cindy. I am 34 years old and neurodivergent. These blogs are just who I am and what I am feeling at the current time they are posted or random things I enjoy. Some deep, some not. If you read them I thank you for taking the time out of your life to listen. Some people donโ€™t care enough to try to understand others, and it says something about you that you are trying.

I wanted to share some things in my life I am currently working on ๐Ÿšง๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Creative goals
-Creating more physical things from my photographs
-Making more art and not judging it harshly
-Practicing photography in all sorts of ways
-Blogging
-Trying new creative hobbies

Personal goals
-Expressing myself better
-Accepting myself as I am while still changing things I want to change
-Treating myself to things that feel like luxuries
-Advocating for myself and my wants and needs

Social & relational goals
-Being more social in person
-Unmasking more often
-Going out to more events
-Setting healthy boundaries
-Letting go of seeking to be understood by people who donโ€™t want to understand
-Showing appreciation to the supportive people in my life

For me, some of these come more naturally, but some of these take up a lot of effort. However, I know doing these things or at least trying, are ways to grow myself and learn about myself. It is very tempting to stick with routine. I love the comfort of routine, but now I think of it like this : doing more new things is a way to possibly enjoy something new so much that it becomes a part of my new routine and brings me even more comfort and happiness. This shift in mindset has been a really important one for me.
