I'm new here!

Hi, I’m Chris.
For a very long time, I couldn’t picture a future I wanted to be part of. I struggled from childhood well into adulthood, and I began to believe that was simply how my life would always feel.
Then, one ordinary Thursday, sitting in a rather undignified place, I realised something that caught me completely off guard.
I was happy.
There’s a much longer story behind those three words. It involves bipolar disorder, a man called Braam, finding treatment with my psychiatrist, my faith, and a little dog called Hobbits who always seems to know when I need her.
I’m also autistic and have ADHD, and there are things I’m still learning how to navigate. Happiness hasn’t made every difficulty pack a suitcase and leave. But I have a future I look forward to now, and that once felt impossible.
I joined because I want to share that hope—and get to know people whose experiences might help me understand my own a little better.
If you’ve been struggling for a long time, I won’t pretend to know what your path will look like. I just want you to know that mine changed long after I had stopped believing it could.
I’m glad to be here.

Any Questions feel free to ask and I will answer to the best of my ability.
