Girl Unmasked is a Sunday Times bestseller. 🥹🥹🥹 There are no words to describe what an absolute privilege this is and how grateful I am. Thank YOU. #GirlUnmasked

Since sharing that I’ve been unwell (mainly on Instagram), I have been so blessed with people sending me care packages, letters, offering me all types of support and buying me coffees - I am so grateful for this community. buymeacoffee.com/itsemilykaty

@justme2connect Oh that’s so lovely to know!!

Thank you for your response @ItsEmilyKaty! Just one more thing: I forgot to mention that this wonderful book traveled from the UK to a little town in Spain, bringing us clarity, compassion and understanding. Wishing you strength and peace during this time 🤍

@ItsEmilyKaty hace 2 años viajé a Londres por Navidades con mi familia, mi hija diagnosticada autista a los 10 años y con una gran ilusión por encontrar tu libro. En aquel momento comenzábamos a navegar el autismo. Después de 2 duros años y 2 ingresos psiquiátricos decidí leerlo.

Notes from a mental health patient #2. ✉️ Sometimes it’s hard to know what is scarier. The illness itself or being within the system, and the trauma that can leave you with in itself. #notesfromamentalhealthpatient

@justme2connect Thank you so much!

Mucha fortaleza, Emily! (Te escribo en español para que sepas lo lejos que has llegado!). Gracias por permitirme conocer tu historia ♡

Notes from a mental health patient. After being back in the mental health system for a year, I have a lot of thoughts. Starting with the fact that I am not defined by what is written down about me on paper. #MentalHealth

@EddieBa95442882 @LEGO_Group A couple of days of hyperfocusing!

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group Amazing! How long did this take? :)

Build the 1399 piece Winnie the Pooh lego set with me, because @LEGO_Group is the thing that has been getting me through this admission. Always remember - you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think and loved more than you’ll ever know. 💛🐻🍯

a lot of autistic pain starts with being treated like you are wrong, not simply different. there is a huge emotional difference between “my brain works differently” and “something is bad about me.”

@anarchy4angels @LEGO_Group @A_AMilne Ah yes I meant like the big Winnie :)

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group @A_AMilne Oh they have those!! There's a Piglet set... lego.com/en-gb/product/…

@anarchy4angels @LEGO_Group @A_AMilne Yes I do. I wish they had Eeyore and piglet Lego’s!!!

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group Do you follow @A_AMilne on here? They pay a Pooh quote and picture every morning, they're always lovely. I like Eeyore and Piglet best😊

@ShifnalWolf @LEGO_Group Thanks very much

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group Wishing you a speedy recovery 🙏🏻

@Star7Gem @LEGO_Group Thank you xx

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group Thinking of you Emily ❤️🙏 Get Well Soon xx

@katboreuxwells @LEGO_Group Love these so much. Thank you.

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group Lego is my go to for getting through during my admissions I built a number of sets this is just a picture of some of them. Hope it’s helping you remember you are amazing.

@ChristineMap @LEGO_Group Thanks very much

@ItsEmilyKaty @LEGO_Group I love Winnie the Pooh, I’m pleased you have found something to focus on, sending you lots of positive wishes @ItsEmilyKaty

It's always strange to me when people argue against diagnosing autistic and ADHD children by using the 'we shouldn't be putting labels on them' argument. Because I was undiagnosed as a child - and wait until you hear about all the other labels I got instead.
