Research request: A trans-led study from researchers at Cardiff University is recruiting trans+ people (age 18+) in the UK on the relations between eating disorders, gender diversity and neurodivergence. More info at tinyurl.com/LEADINGStudy1 or email [email protected] #Trans #LGBTQIA

I think people forget that not every traumatic experience results in trauma. And not every trauma results in ptsd. It is completely normal to go through traumatic experiences and not be traumatised by it, just like it’s completely normal to be traumatised.

Research Participation Opportunity We are recruiting gender diverse participants for a research study about the relationships between gender identity, neurodivergence, and eating disorders. Scan the QR code or click the link in our bio to find out more.

I feel like being autistic and living with cptsd means I’ll never achieve the life I so desperately want. I just want to be able to thrive and have my shit together but I think my expectations for myself are maybe a little high because I am constantly pushing myself into burnout

I have an itchy nose, a sore throat and I have just sneezed at least 10 times in a row… hayfever season is here folks

Anyone interested with £5 portrait illustrations to help me raise money to pay some bills?? £5 per person ❤️

I just paid my final payment on my IVA and it feels like such a momentous occasion. It’s been 5 years of paying my debt off monthly and I can’t believe it’s come to an end. I’m not completely out of debt, but it’s significantly reduced and I’m so proud of myself!!!

I spoke with Molly at length & have decided to not pursue the clinical doctorate this year regardless of if I get any interviews or not. Working 1-1 with patients I feel I’m just not clinically there yet and need more experience before I feel confident enough to do the doctorate

I’m sorry but you will never be able to convince me that pandas aren’t just people in suits.. this is the only conspiracy I subscribe to and I will die on this hill because I’m sorry but what? They’re just not real. How is that a real animal?? We’ve been duped

Something that I didn’t realise was autism is never knowing when is my turn to speak in conversations, especially ground conversations. I’ll still be trying to figure out when it’s my time to speak 20 minutes and 4 topic changes later

Honestly don’t understand how or when my obsession with Xaden Riorson started but here I am.. a lesbian obsessed with a fictional male dragon rider who has my whole heart and I would quite literally burn the world down for him and I’m not even sorry about it

I wish it was sunny so I could read in the garden, maybe with a fruity cider, and some classical music playing.. but alas I live in wales and it is currently raining

So I didn’t get an interview for Southampton for the doctorate. Just waiting to hear back from Bath, Plymouth and Exeter. Really really nervous.

Unfortunately my wife does not understand the elite combo that is beans and cheese on top of something (like a jacket potato or toast) and therefore sadly it seems I will never understand her

There was a time that getting a frapp would cause too much panic. Too many calories and too much time exercising to burn it off. It was easier to avoid. Fast forward to 2025, it’s now one of my favourite drinks and I love every sip, not a hint of panic in sight❤️

I have reached chapter 3 of edits for the 4th draft of my novel, and I’ve already added 4000 words. I’m aiming for 80,000 and I’m currently at 60,000 which will be completely possible. I’m really enjoying this round of edits!!

My mum has just informed me that I need to go to church for the healing powers of holy water and when I said catholics are too fond of the gays I’ll get burnt she said ‘god has to get with the times, and anyway if he hadn’t you’d have been burnt a long time ago’

I really don’t know what I’m doing with the novel I’ve written. I’m now writing up my 4th draft. I have had so many rejections from literary agents. I’m thinking of changing it to a contemporary fiction rather than young adult. Maybe a little less gritty and more imagery

See a tattoo, post a tattoo My new froggo addition

Today I am back to being a whole week without purging. I felt so guilty after I was sick last week for the first time in 4 months because it felt like a massive step backwards, but I’ve managed to not let it turn into a relapse and I’m so so proud of myself for that

These glitter stickers are now live on my Etsy ⭐️ libbymaestudioshop.etsy.com

I’m seeing so many videos on tiktok at the moment of people moving their bodies in ways that their hypermobilitu allows them to and I can do about 90% of the things they’re doing… and I thought everyone could do them, but turns out I may just be hypermobile

It really angers me how little people believe women when it comes to violence against women, because they don’t act how others perceive a victim should act because there is no ‘perfect’ victim. It’s a made up persona to silence women and it’s so dangerous

I really wish there was more compassion and understanding for people who struggle with maintaining hygiene. Mental illness & neurodiversity make this a huge struggle for me and I always feel so ashamed for it

Do you ever get embarrassed when someone hates something you liked?? Like if you found a tv show funny or really connected with a song, then come across someone that hated it and thought it was rubbish and you just feel a little silly for liking it…

I have such an awful cold/flu thing and I feel like someone has slammed me into a wall repeatedly and I miss the ability to breathe through my nose

I am in desperate need of a day out to ikea, costco and tkmax for a dopamine boost

Had my first therapy session in 6 months today and it was so lovely to see my therapist again and chat about how things have been. It was really helpful to talk about my new job and processing my autism diagnosis and how I feel a little more settled now

Went to watch the new Bridget Jones for Valentine’s Day with my most wonderful wife. Such a brilliant way to end a much beloved movie series 💖

Made a doughnut and fries out of play-doh in work today and was pretty impressed so of course I had to take a photo 😂😂

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, why not show yourself some love and treat yourself to a gorgeous print ❤️ libbymaestudioshop.etsy.com

It is so interesting to me how so many people are very very quick to hold black celebrities accountable and even call for them to be ‘cancelled’ but won’t do the same for white celebrities, especially their faves. It screams ‘we hold black people to a higher standard’

Knowing that interview offers for the clinical doctorate will be sent within the next 4 weeks is making me so incredibly anxious

Very excited to get a frog tattoo next week!!!

Dear Evan Hanson was absolutely incredible last night!!!! ❤️

The horrific attitude so many people have towards addiction hurts my heart. Alcoholism and drug addiction are so deadly and it’s such an awful things to live with, that consumes every part of you, and some people are so so nasty about those who struggle

Please, I am begging you, stop calling people who behave or say things you don’t agree with ‘mentally ill’ because I am so tired of people complaining about how bad stigma is and then in the same breath saying someone who is a bigot must be mentally ill

I went for a silly litte walk for my silly mental health and when I got back and checked my emails, I had received 4 Etsy orders and it’s honestly made my heart so happy. Thank you so much 🥺 every order fills me with so much joy

I bought my friend the cutest little pressie today because she’s been feeling down and I saw it and instantly thought of her and I’m so excited to give it to her

My mother in law has been napping on the sofa, and she sneezed in her sleep and then said ‘I wet myself’ and started snoring again and it was so funny I almost wet myself laughing

Went for a lovely forest walk and I feel so refreshed and happy
