🎊 ME! 🥳

It's so weird for me, being a student again, but I have to say, I'm already doing better with this in the last week than I have with the past seven years of high school (I graduated late). Mentally, I'm in a much better place than I was back than (thank you therapy, medication and healthy coping mechanisms 🩷), and it really shows in my class work, my focus in class, my participation in class, my homework, and my studying. I'm even making friends! Which is even wilder!!

I haven't made friends since I was in high school. We're getting to know each other pretty well already, but it's hard for me to open up and fully let people know who I am as a person. I want to learn how to do that, though. I don't want to live my life in a bubble because I'm afraid of letting people know me and then reject me. If I do that, and never let anyone in, I'm never going to find the people that will genuinely like me for me.
