Im Gal, and Im on a quest to find a compassionate personal assistant (PA) who can join me on my unique journey. Heres a more detailed glimpse into my world:
1. My Labels and Strengths:
Beyond autism, ADHD, and fibromyalgia, I wear other labelseach contributing to my rich tapestry of experiences.
When I have the right support, Im highly independenta reflection of what was once termed high-functioning autism.
However, fatigue, stiffness, and mobility difficulties sometimes hinder me.
2 Essential Tasks and Beyond:

Housekeeping: Tidying up, organizing, vacuuming, washing up, changing bedding (my cozy flat), and managing laundry.
Creative Endeavors: Im passionate about Twitch (a gaming platform) and creative projects like writing and digital art. Help me set up, organize materials, and capture ideas.
3. Navigating Social Waters:
Relationships: Id appreciate social support in finding and engaging with local groupsperhaps gaming cafes or even martial arts classes. Initial visits can be daunting, so your presence would boost my confidence.
Community Outings: As someone with social anxiety, I need assistance with appointments, shopping, and getting around. Having a driver (or support in a taxi) would be fantastic. I also enjoy quiet walks with my cat in a dog-free park.
4. Holistic Well-Being:
Therapeutic Routines: Prompting and support for therapeutic activities (such as breathing exercises) to maintain healthy routines. Your presence during distressing moments would be invaluable.

5. Trust and Open Communication:
Building trust is essentialI want someone who genuinely gets to know me and allows me to be myself.
Your willingness to explore my neurodiverse traits and support me in leading a more pleasant life means the world to me.
