Hi,
I'm new to Beyond Blue and I've been having a hard time with social anxiety lately.
It would be nice to get to know other people on BB and maybe learn a bit about them. Hobbies, pets, likes/dislikes etc.
So if anyone feels like saying a bit about themselves, go ahead! ☺️

Hiya Agave.Plant
Welcome to BB. I joined at the beginning of April and have been finding the forums very helpful. They cover lots of topics which is great.
I have a little dog called Poppy Angel 😇. That’s her in the picture. Pets are very precious to me as they are such a comfort. I like photography, reading, scrapbooking, music and cycling.
Do you have any pets? What sort of things do you like to do?

Your dog is so cute!
I have a black and white cat, she's so sweet and loves ice cream!
I enjoy reading, walking and gardening.
What kind of music do you listen to?

Hello AgavePlant 🌿..
I would also like to Welcome you to the forums...
I am sorry that your struggling with social anxiety...I also struggle with anxiety and I am trying so hard to socialise but wow it’s hard...I can say I’m getting a little better with self challenging myself...
I have 2 little fur children..Mum (Kyla) and daughter (Ebony)..they are my life ...I love them so much...
I love cats as well..in fact I’m an animal lover..they are so innocent especially there eyes...My furs don’t eat ice cream but love flavoured milk...I had some coffe milk left over a few nights ago and tipped it into their bowls..haha 😂 big mistake they kept me awake the entire night playing on my bed..while I was trying to sleep..
How are you feeling today Agive?
Kind thoughts...and hugs 🤗.....if you like them)..
Grandy..

Hi Agave Plant🌿
I love cats too. My last cat was called Sammi-Sue and she was a black and tan tabby cat. I had her for 18 years. What’s your cats name?
I love most kinds of music except for heavy metal. Some of my favourites are:
Passenger, Coldplay, U2, Robbie Williams, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, The Beatles, Dire Straits, to name a few. What sort of music do you like?
I am originally from Scotland. Have you always lived in Australia?
