Still trying to learn the ways of Mastodon after #TwitterMigration but the thing I keep seeing is ‘make an #introduction post’ so here goes…
I am #ActuallyAutistic, also think I have #ADHD but can’t access a diagnosis where I live. Identify as #AuDHD :) Also a #ChronicIllness person and identify as #disabled. Really passionate about #access and #inclusion and likely to talk a lot about that once I get going - in particular my own experience as an #AutisticProfessional, an #AutisticParent of an #autistic child, and being #LateDiagnosed.
I founded @LiveToYourLR (we’re not very active on here yet but have the same handle across all social platforms) during lockdown to help musicians and audiences connect with each other. We’ve now been running high-quality #folk and #acoustic #OnlineGigs for nearly three years, because despite what you might hear, #CovidIsNotOver and actually even taking that out of the equation, #gigs just aren’t all that #accessible for a lot of people.
I might also talk about #adoption and #trauma as I’m an #adoptiveparent of seven years and still on a massive learning and self-reflection curve. Wrote a couple of books about the #psychology of adoption and how you can use #music and #singing to support child development, which I will get VERY nerdy about, given half a chance. I sometimes blog about stuff on my website if there’s something on my mind, which you can find at catmcgill.uk.
Also I have six #cats. Most of the photos of them go on Instagram though as that’s how my brain works.
Looking forward to making connections and learning interesting things, and struggling to resist the urge to ask if I’ve done this right…
