I’d show you my soul,
open it up before you
and hold it to the light,
but I worry you’d laugh
shredding any self-confidence
that has snuck through
my long line of offenses
and survived.

Hi! I am an artist, author, and blogger who also happens to have Aspergerās Syndrome. I have won several awards and honors for my writings and artwork. I suffer from a few severe mental illness and chronic pain conditions (Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Fibromyalgia, CFS/ME, Ehlers Danlos, Degenerative Disc Disease, etc.), which greatly affects my life and makes me want to advocate for others going through similar things. Other interests of mine include reading, writing, drawing, watching cartoons and movies, collecting toys, hanging out with my family, and annoying my 3 cats.

I wouldn’t laugh. Unless it was purposefully funny and you were cool with me laughing. It would be with You. Never at You

Thank you. I found most of the people here on WordPress are extremely supportive. I can be shy about sharing my art though in real life.
