About Frogs!

a little introduction to the person behind the pond

hello hello ♡

I’m Frogs, Froggy, Violet, and probably a few other names depending on where you know me from. My legal name is Violet, but because I am completely and hopelessly obsessed with frogs, everyone just started calling me Frogs. Honestly? I accept my fate.

I’m 25, I use she/her pronouns, and this website is my cosy little pond on the internet. It is full of shrines, collections, games, music, memories, and whatever else my brain decides is important enough to lovingly archive.

I like making tiny spaces for the things I care about. This site is one of them.

this is me

just kidding. I wish I could rock that dress.

instead, I look like dis D:

a softer note

I have a lot of health stuff going on, both physical and mental, and sometimes that makes it very easy for me to be unkind to myself. I can be pretty down on how I look, how much energy I have, or how much my body and brain can handle.

I’m trying to remember that I deserve compassion, patience, and softness from myself too. I’m not a project to fix. I’m a person doing her best.

The demons will not win. Yes, you can tell I’m obsessed with KPop Demon Hunters.

health stuff

These are some diagnoses that feel important to mention because they shape how I move through the world. They are not my whole personality, but they are part of my life, and having them recognised matters for my wellbeing.

mental health / neurodivergence

  • Autism, diagnosed at 17
  • ADHD, diagnosed at 18
  • OCD, diagnosed at 15
  • Anxiety and depression, hanging around since I was about 12

physical health

  • Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, diagnosed at 11
  • Raynaud’s, diagnosed at 11
  • POTS, diagnosed at 23
  • Silent heart murmur, diagnosed at 15
  • Chronic pain and chronic fatigue, basically forever companions

I’m not sharing this to brag, trauma dump, or collect pity points. It is simply a record of what I know about myself so far. These labels can be useful, especially when it comes to care, access, and understanding, but they are still only labels.

Please get to know me for me: frog enjoyer, collector, shrine maker, game lover, and emotional little creature on the web.

what I love

  • frogs, obviously
  • Animal Crossing
  • Pokémon
  • Final Fantasy XIV
  • CDs, DVDs, games, and physical media
  • old web graphics, shrines, pixels, blinkies, and tiny archives
  • making cosy pages for my favourite things

more soon

I’m going to add more here when I have the energy. For now, this page is a little introduction, a little health note, and a little reminder that I am trying to be kinder to myself.

If you want to follow more of my health journey, I’ll be posting about that on my other website: virtualviolet.space.
