Here I will explain more on my "Why?" reasoning for this page and my content on TikTok.
I have had anxiety for quite some time, and recently in the last few years gotten an official diagnosis and started medication for it, as well as PTSD that I had gotten from a deployment in 2021. The very beginning of 2026 I was diagnosed with ADHD Inattentive. That had answered a lot of questions and things started making more sense to me.
I have always had entrepreneurial ideas and plans but never could get the right step to get started. I am almost done (currently 2026) with my bachelors of Applied Science with a major of Business Creation and an emphasis on Project Management. While in these course I had gotten a better understanding of what it takes and how to start. That let my mind run free with ideas and a clearer way to put them to action.
Thus began my first creator period and quickly got overwhelmed with anxiety and could not keep up with multiple social media accounts. That left me with a collection of products and no place to market them. My collection keeps growing, but my marketing still at nothing. A once great idea quickly turned into a dead end. Lacking the social know how to get my products and message out there I hit a place of desperation. Randomly throwing my products and links onto social media in hopes of a sympathy buy, still nothing. After some time of getting into a rhythm with my Adderall, and clearing up my mind, a slow and steady pace was determined and a blog idea was created.
