2025 feels so significant after years of deep struggle.
What began as a year marred by family estrangement and a bad therapist transformed as I worked through the mechanics of CPTSD and internal communication. Since discovering I am AuDHD in April, I have finally begun to understand how my system works rather than seeing it as something to fix.
Educationally, I settled into my path and am now completing my Master of Counselling after trying a few different pathways. My life as a choral scholar also flourished, moving from a half-scholarship to a full scholarship this year. Although I left the Synphony chorus, music remains a constant through my Anglican church choral work.
For the first time, I stepped into volunteering, contributing to accessibility, copywriting, and peer groups. I am working with an autistic-led organization and will lead 2 seer groups next year. I am also an online community champion for the Beyond Blue. 2025 has been a year of claiming space where I was once told I did not belong.
