27/01/2022 - About Myself

I’m a happy boy and I love to cook, eat and watch animated movies like Jungle book, Lion King, Nemo, Ice Age, Peter Pan and many others. I love watching animals and going on safaris and walking out in nature. It makes me feel calm and happy.

I like to make friends with many people but I get excited and all the relevant thoughts get cancelled so I say irrelevant words but I have now learnt to talk relevant so I’m very proud of myself.

I am very proud because I have begun to share all my thoughts and feelings with Ms. Manda and mummy.

I love going to restaurants, holidays, school and for night spends.

I like to sing songs and listen to music and sing along with the lyrics.

When I was small I could not share my thoughts and feelings because it was difficult to understand what mummy, therapists and teachers were saying and it was also difficult to use my words because there was too much noise, I was feeling shy of the people and their moving faces and hands. It was all too much for my head. I find it too fast when people speak at their normal rate. When I was small only mummy understood me but not as much as now.

When I could not share my thoughts and feelings I felt sad, frustrated and when I would get angry I would stay there and be quiet.

It is easier to share my thoughts now, It was not easy to share my thoughts and feelings when I wasn’t chatting with other people. In Ms. Manda’s class I share my inner thoughts and feelings and we write it on the white board and I use my words to tell Ms. Manda my thoughts and feelings. When I tell Ms. Manda my thoughts and feelings she can help me. I also like to share my thoughts and feelings with Ms. Ujwal, mum, dad and my cousin. I would like to learn to share my thoughts and feelings with everybody so that they can understand them. I like to share them by writing on the white board, talking and journaling.

"When I could not share my thoughts and feelings I felt sad, frustrated and when I would get angry I would stay there and be quiet." This line is so poignant, it hit me like a bolt, especially the last words are so true. On so many occasions when Reh could not explain things to me, I felt so frustrated and irritated at him because he would just stare at me quietly. Now its apparent that he was trapped within himself and I couldn't reach him. If only I had known...
