Heyy, I'm Laura from the FB group. I wanted a unique username because when (not if at this rate!) this place gets busy there'll be a few Lauras. I'm 21 and formally diagnosed with Emotionally Unstable Personality Traits a year ago. My health visitor suspects Post Natal Depression and I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety before I had my 9 month old son, who is my world. I'm a mix of everything because I experience dissociation, social anxiety and panic attacks too, I'm (trying not to be) a self-harmer and have been bulimic, although I wasn't diagnosed. I'm a creative person. I write prose and poetry, read and play video games a lot, I love fantasy and sci-fi, I love drawing but I'm not very good at it. Escapism and music are my coping mechanism. That's about it really. Looking forward to getting involved. My problems have lost me a lot of friends and family over the years and especially recently so I hope to make friends here too.

Hi Laura, Thanks so much for joining! I really like the username, makes me think of Arwen from LOTR (not sure if that's why, but hey, it's cool). Keeley, one of our ambassadors, has just written an incredible post about PND, be interesting to have your thoughts on it too! Really glad you're on board, hope to see some of that creativity coming out Perhaps we should have a creative corner for things like poetry, what do you think? See you around Bex x

Thanks for being so welcoming and working so hard on this project
*points to avatar* Yeah its LotR lol
A creative corner sounds like a great idea. Especially for people who want to post writing or art on the blog but might be shy or want some feedback first
