I’m Karl — also known as Mentality. This space is a blend of reflection, expression, and exploration. I’m Autistic, a father, and a writer who uses this platform to unpack thoughts on life, politics, mental health, and everything that comes with being human. Some days I write to make sense of the world; other days, just to make sense of myself. I’m open about living with anxiety and depression, and I’ve found that writing helps me process the messiness of life. I don’t always have the answers — especially when it comes to relationships, parenting, or the state of the world — but I believe in asking honest questions and sharing real experiences. Whether you’re here for the political commentary, the personal reflections, or because you just needed to hear that someone else gets it — I’m glad you found your way here. Thanks for being part of the journey.
