Sadly, some emotionally distressed people may infect our emotions within moments of us being in their company. After some exposure, everyone around those people may begin to feel sick.
Emotionally distressed people may sometimes prefer to remain distressed, particularly if it means them having to deal with their emotions. Our emotions aren’t the easiest thing to deal …
Read on »Sadly for those of us dealing with Sensory Processing Disorder, even if someone tells us something is going to be alright, we don’t always know it’s going to be alright, until we see it’s alright. I am intending to write a little more about SPD, explaining how the condition can be best managed. It’s still something I have to work through, made all the harder through other people’s attitude of what they think I deal with and how intense they think I am.

Now 8 years into a diagnosis and I am still learning about how my symptoms present neurologically, I’m not done with it, why I present a certain way and why I will always be tied to my neurological …

Read on »This is the hardest blog I’ve had to write, because it brings understanding and finality on something I’ve had to work on and find out for myself for as long as I have been and that’s never easy.
