I suddenly noticed I don’t have an introduction to myself, lol
INFP / Generator (Human Design) / AuDHD
I’m a 34 yo wife and mother of a 5 yo. Graduated as Graphic Designer, but the work pressure was too much for me, and also I couldn’t get my mind off of projects so I became really overstimulated and started to not like this work anymore. I sadly lost my interest in creativity. I learned that physical work is better for me, so I started to work in cleaning. I’ve done this work for 3 years, until I became a mother. Due to my sensitivities, my husband and I agreed it would be better if I stayed at home for at least the first year, but after the first year I still wasn’t very adjusted to being a mom and I panicked at the thought of also having to work. So I stayed home.
Now little one is almost 5 yo and is going to school, and I’m still easily overstimulated with regular family life.
In 2025 we learned that I am autistic so that explained a lot. We are now figuring out how to accommodate me so that I can properly function. For me this means I need help, so next to my husband who is doing a lot, I also have two people who come two times a week to help me with daily life.
I love to journal, write stories, read, dolls, walking or bike-ing around the village or forest, and make memories with my family. I have more interests but I have to take it slow. Everyday I try to just take care for myself (regular times for sleep, food and drinks, and movement) and if it’s a day where I feel motivated or inspired to do more, I do it. But I can’t push myself, otherwise I collapse.
