Hi guys. I've been doing, well, not super great, but I'm hanging in there. I decided to create a wall of photos and cards (some of you have yours up there without knowing!) To keep me going through my life as a chronic pain, chronically ill disabled person.

I turn 29 tomorrow and despite many "un-aliving" myself attempts and un-aliving ideation since age 7, I cannot express how amazing and scary turning 29 is! I never in a million years would have guessed I'd live this long.

The only issue is that when I got off of the streets and got sober and worked heavily on myself and my health, I had to cut ties with all of my friends and I don't have a relationship with my family. So, I don't really have anyone to celebrate this day with me except for my service dog, Odin.

I'd like to try to trade if I can get myself to commit to it, but for now, I'm just requesting some cards so that I feel less alone and like people know how hard I've worked to get to where I am today.

Random topics: Dogs, mental health, positive affirmations, words of encouragement, random advice for any situation, what your happiest day has been, what super niche interest you have that you never get to talk about, etc.

I could really use the dopamine right about now, friends! Please help!
