# Welcome to the Sad Squad! ## I'm VRex, but you can just call me Rex! I'm an AuDHD variety streamer with [PDD](https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/persistent-depressive-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20350929), [GAD](https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/generalized-anxiety-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20360803), and [OCD](https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/obsessive-compulsive-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20354432). With all those, it's no wonder I call this **The Sad Squad**. But it's not all that sad! I like to educate about mental health/neurodivergencies and advocate the open discussion of it, so I wanted to create a safe space for my fellow neurodivergents. I work full-time as a QA Development Tester, but my hope is to eventually get into narrative design.

We're here to have a chill time, so keep that positive energy in chat! A few rules to keep this a safe space: * absolutely NO hate speech! Racism, sexism, anti-LGBTQ+, etc. We don't discriminate here! * no harassment to fellow chat goers * preferably ages 18+ * do not mention your age if you're a minor; confirming you are a minor will have you banned for your own safety (also take that as a learning experience to not disclose your age to strangers on the internet) * do not trauma dump in the chat * respect each other & respect the mods * no ads or self-promo * no spam * no backseat gaming; if I ask for help that's one thing, but don't butt in unasked * English only please

Do not trauma dump in the chat during live streams as not everyone is comfortable with the topics and I don't want to have anyone triggered. Instead please whisper me or DM me on discord if you need someone to vent to or talk to. While I advocate for the open discussion on mental health, I am not a trained or licensed professional - I'm just a depressed, anxious gal trying her best. If you feel you are at the point of no return, I would highly suggest calling a [hotline](https://www.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines) as these individuals are trained to handle people in crisis better than I could ever hope to. Here are some [global resources](https://checkpointorg.com/global/) that have links to hotlines as well as other information. There's a stigma with self-diagnosing, and while I think professional assessment is something everyone should request, it is a privilege. Educate yourself. If you see a lot of similarities between you and a mental illness and the coping mechanisms help you, it doesn't matter that the word is official or not. In the case of meds, *please* consult a doctor before trying anything - prescribed OR recreational - as you don't know how it will affect you. Always practice self-care and self-love 💜 I'm rooting for you!

## Assets My panels and overlays were purchased from NerdOrDie which provides the Photoshop and After Effects files that I have edited to match my stream colour. I have also made separate assets based on these original files myself to expand on what was available. ## Model & Art My model was made myself using VRoid Studio. My PNG streamer and all the expressions were drawn myself. Display picture and all emotes are drawn by myself.

Show your support by tipping me a few dollars. Unnecessary but always appreciated! To go to the tip page, just click the panel above 😊 NOTE: Tips are non-refundable!

You can safely buy me gifts on Throne, the privacy-first wishlist for creators! Much like tips, unnecessary but always appreciated!
