Hello! nice to meet you
Hi, I’m May (they/them)—a semi-self-taught autistic illustrator and a queer individual navigating life with a wonderfully neurodivergent brain and a newly disabled body, dealing with chronic pain and fatigue every day. I started IINSIDE MY HEAD as a way to feel less alone, and somewhere along the way, it became a space for you too! Dive into my story below to learn more about why I created IINSIDE MY HEAD.
What do we do?
I created an online store to provide high-quality self-help products and resources for anyone who could use a little extra support with their mental health (myself included! 💛). As I grew and learned more about myself, the store expanded to include communication aids and hidden disability items tailored to autism, ADHD, and physical disabilities too. 🌈♿
Whether you’re navigating depression, anxiety, another type of mental illness, neurodivergence, or chronic illness—we hope to offer something that makes your life even a tiny bit better. 🫶 Our goal is to make sure everyone feels safe, supported, and seen when visiting our website.
💌 IINSIDE MY HEAD isn’t just an online store; it’s a community. Behind the brand, I’m just a person, like you, hoping to make a positive change in the world. That’s why we also run a care package program—because money should never be a barrier to having the tools that can make life a little brighter. So far, we’ve sent over 1,000 free care packages to those in need, and we’re not stopping anytime soon. 💖✨
My Story
Growing up, I experienced a lot of loss and trauma and was never given any support on how to deal with it. My Struggles went undiagnosed and unsupported by professionals for years. (I am now a strong advocate for self diagnosis and giving yourself those accommodations with or without the disability listed on paper - if something helps you, it helps you. No doctor can decide for you whether that's true or not.)
Ultimately, I had no choice but to seek out help from elsewhere -and by doing so, I realized there were minimal resources that are affordable and customisable to individuals circumstances. I found what was said to help others wasn't helping me (probably due to following neurotypical advice as a a neurodivergent person) but at the time I couldn't understand why.
Since committing my all to recovery from a variety of mental health conditions in 2020, I wanted to make sure no one else felt the way I did for so long (and also desperately needed a healthy distraction) so, IInside My Head was created.
I may not be a professional, but I do have a lot of lived experience, and with that, I will do all I can to help others (even if its just some cute frogs and dinosaur illustrations and queer little pins making them smile)
