Aunty Social World

It began with a midnight breakfast, a police officer and a herd of rams. This is the story of a journey in the dark.

I’m writing this at the end of a long night, a long way from home. A long night on the loch and what a night of social anxiety it has been.

Social media is a minefield for those of us with disabilities and mental health struggles. Many of us are seen but not heard...

Social anxiety online is as prevelant as offline. Simply replying to people can be a minefield..

Social media. Whether you love it, loathe it or have mixed feelings towards it, we cannot avoid it.

Looking back over your photos from the year can help reframe how you feel about it.

Since I stepped back from life commitments, it’s been such a relief to find time for ourselves again. It’s nice to have space to think.

Achievement is often seen as the big thing, but life is so much more than this. It's ok to leave that mindset behind..

We don't all get the same pathways and scope to change our lives. That's why we need a new story that considers us all.

Twitter may be changing but it remains a staple of our lives. It's our identities, communities and sense of belonging in this world.
