New here

Hi, Im Alyssa! Im 18, live a little way outside London in a house share with 3 other people, and Im a counselling student. Im here to practice my skills while I study, I hope thats okay.
At the moment I work stacking shelves in a major supermarket. Its not exciting work but hey, it pays my part of the bills.
My apostrophe key doesnt work so if you see me not using them... sorry about that, I hope Ill get a new laptop some time but I cant quite yet.
Even though my name is Alyssa I go by the name Charles online. Thats so that most people who see me post think Im a guy. I found that when I started posting again, people would be creepy to me so I decided to just make myself look like a guy. I took the name Charles from the helicopter pilot in Henry Stickmin.

Welcome to TH! Psychology was my minor in college but I don’t know a ton about counseling really. If you ever want to chat about it, that would be cool. I want to know what goes through my therapist’s head haha.
