Greetings everyone!

My name is MrDonut. This is my first post in the forums. I'm an American, but I've been living in Australia since Dec. 2015, and having married my Australian wife in Nov. 2016. My hobbies include writing, drawing, as well as gaming.

I had a few specific questions to ask people in similar situations as mine, which I might ask under another topic.

How is everyone doing?

There are many gentle people on the forums that can be here for you MrDonut (Cool name by the way) I have had chronic anxiety followed by depression for a few years (under management)

You are not alone here

My kind thoughts for you

Mr Donut,

o you find expressing yourself through drawing and writing helps you to communicate your feelings in a meaningful way to others.

Please feel free to tell us more about yourself or to ask questions as I am looking forward to hearing more about Mr Donut.

Hi quirkywords. Nice to hear from you. I mentioned a little about myself in another topic. I moved to Australia in Dec. 2015 to be with my partner. I really enjoy living in Australia, but I am still getting used to the hot weather!
