@BeagleandMe

So I have a new name! Let me explain it…

As I mentioned in my last post, I struggled to connect with the way I presented myself on social media, and wanted something different – Anxiety Warrior just wasn’t doing it for me (plus I was always anxiwarrior because at the time Twitter didn’t allow long names which always annoyed me).

I’m still very passionate about mental health and will tweet about my own mental health very openly and honestly, but this is my way of being more myself on social media and presenting myself in a way that feels more honest and genuine.

So, what does it mean? Well, I’m the proud owner of Mabel, our 1 year old beagle who has been a ray of sunshine in our lives since joining us last year. She makes us laugh and gives the best cuddles. Now I’m on top of my anxiety, life is about adventure, and me and Mabel will hopefully begin to enjoy life a little more. I want to show people there is a way out of it, you can live WITH anxiety and not be controlled by it.

So here’s to a new era. You’ll learn more about me and hopefully, I’ll connect better with you. In the meantime, here’s Mabel:
