My Care Experience Journey

If I could describe myself, I would say that I am: funny, caring, stubborn and sometimes an overthinker (most times). These characteristics have been with me since I was young, I learnt how to be funny, I have two younger siblings, and I wanted to make people laugh. I was such a sassy and cheeky girl when I was younger. I loved it. I still do now, some of the children I work with call me Miss Sassy and I love it!! With the upbringing I had, it was normal for me to be caring, for my siblings and my parents, this followed through for my friends, my dysfunctional family and my siblings. I think I got my stubbornness from my parents; I wouldn’t change it though; it made me who I am today. I learnt this year that being stubborn doesn’t have to be a bad thing, and I see it as a positive. I shall be stubborn if there is a cause worth fighting for. I have anxiety, I want to say struggle, but it’s become a relationship where I can tolerate it and I know how to overcome situations where I feel overwhelmed, if I can’t I have a dysfunctional family who I can talk to which helps.
