What’s in a blog?

Time for one of these so any new followers know what you’re in for:

Hi, I’m a 28-year-old lady-lovin’ ladynerd from Melbourne, Australia - a city about which I am unmistakenly biased. On this blog you’ll find:

- Weekend updates of my comic I Do Not Have An Eating Disorder. The directory of pages can be found here.

- Occasional illustration work, though these days comicking alone keeps me pretty busy. 

- Resources, support, and overall positivity for those in recovery from EDs, depression, suicidal tendencies, anxiety and so forth. A small list of current resources is available here

- Reblogs of beautiful things and people, mohawks, tattoos, general hilarity. 

I’m also involved with the LGBTIQ social networking site I’m Awesome, Thanks! which not only connects queerbos with likeminded folks around the globe, but does community outreach, hosts the Hug-A-Random movement, and sells some wicked swag to help support these spectacular missions. Once you’re a member, look me up under the handle ‘PixieGalore’. 

All my love,

I DO NOT HAVE AN EATING DISORDER - Page 82

Sometimes you do everything right, and you still don’t get the support you need. It’s important to know that help is always available to you, wherever you are. Check out a list of resources here

This is the start of a little story arc that I am absolutely mortified to tell, but it’s another lesson in being honest and taking ownership over the journey I’ve taken. I hope you’ll stick with me for the moment.

Resource directory for EDs, self harm, depression and suicide

The following is a (by no means exhaustive) quick reference quick to resources and help I’ve mentioned at various times on this blog and in IDNHAED. For future reference, this directory can be found on my front page (below the IDNHAED comic directory). Please feel free to submit any other resources you come across via my Askbox. 

Stay well and look after yourself <3

All my love,
