Thank You for Being a Friend by Cynthia Fee

A once vibrant extrovert, I've evolved into an introspective soul, embracing solitude. I grapple with overthinking, a hidden battle fueled by my undiagnosed ADHD. Despite not having a furry companion, my love for dogs knows no bounds. As a creative artist, my talents shine, yet my self-esteem remains a constant struggle. My journey is a canvas, a masterpiece in progress.
