I was diagnosed during the lockdown, which still hasn't ended in my country. This means that I can't access a lot of the services I've been told I need so I'm trying so hard to help myself in any way I can in the meantime. I feel like I've got my emotional outbursts more under control with a grounding object (I bought a new necklace specifically for that purpose and if I feel myself getting intense, I look at the wall and hold it before I contact anyone).

What concerns me most now is my personal identity. Strange life circumstances mean I'm looking for a job and I don't think I want to continue in my specialism. Not having any true passions makes deciding what to look into difficult! It also makes passing time in lockdown difficult as I've spent a fair amount of money on new hobbies which are now abandoned in my wardrobe! 

If anyone has any strategies that helped them discover more about themselves I'd love to hear them! I don't expect to find myself overnight, but I want to start my journey.
