Hi there!

Well, I just did it.

I'm 23 years old. Right now I live in The Netherlands, but I'm from Colombia. I was studying industrial design (I love the logic behind objects! I <3 antropoligycal design) but right now I work at a clothes store to train myself socially, since it's a very stupid job but with a big social interaction. I love making cultural tourism aswell.

It's been a long journey for me to be here, yet I hope the destination to be as enriching as the journey.

I have what some people call "DAMP", in my case a triad ASS-DCD-ADHD, but only ADHD has been formally diagnosed. I'm on a queue for a formal ASS diagnose and yet already just by knowing it for myself has realeased me a lot of stress.

I have to admit that even though I feel mentally handicapted every day thanks to my messy brain, and even though I've have a miserable life thanks to this, I'm glad to be the person I am and to live in the world I live.

I wish you all good luck in your own personal journy.

Hello and welcome to join in and talk with us! Its surely the right spirit to be glad to be the person you are, that vision somehow makes it easier to cope with the struggles your difficulties gives you in life.
I wish you good luck in return!

welcome,

I do not know what a 'DAMP' is... I suppose I have a duo diagnosis of Autism and ADHD. At times, things seem messsy in my mind. As I gotten older, things seemed to calm down a bit.
