Articles
This is where I publish various articles I've written. Some of them involve fairly heavy themes and therefore come with trigger warnings.
Coming Soon

Autism [currently private]: A personal account detailing my life on the autistic spectrum—its challenges, unique perspectives, and the impact on my relationships and self-understanding. This article delves into topics like difficulties with social cues, literal thinking, and communication nuances, as well as my special interests.

CBT & Counseling [currently private]: Read about my candid journey through mental health support—from the initial onset of depression and PTSD symptoms to navigating both NHS and private counselling systems. This piece covers the emotional roller coaster and challenges of accessing mental health support in the UK, and the impact of feeling dismissed or misunderstood by mental health services.

The Incident [currently private]: A raw and emotional recounting of a deeply challenging event that altered my life and community ties.
