    Welcome to the community @AlicePalace! Really glad you found us.

    Thanks for sharing more about yourself. This is a very diverse community and there are even a few arts and crafts threads lying around you might enjoy.

    I noticed you posted this in Help Desk which is for flagging tech issues, so I moved this across to Introduce Yourself which is the usual place for intro posts. :)

    Feel free to have a look at the community guidelines if you haven't already. Happy posting!
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸

    Hiii, welcome! I’m 19 and autistic, I probably have selective mutism but I can’t get it diagnosed so not sure. This community really helped me to make friends though.
    It’s nice to meet you!
