Why We Need Disability Pride Month

Little known fact, but July is Disability Pride Month. Here are the reasons why this is important.

People have such a narrow view of what disability is and what it looks like. This lack of knowledge causes the harassment of disabled people. It’s the reason I have a pin that says: “I have a hidden disability.”

If people learned that disabilities are not all the same, and that every disabled person looks, feels, and acts differently, there could be more understanding and less harassment.

Disabled people are harassed for parking in handicap spots.

People treat disabled like it’s a bad word that shouldn’t be said.

Disabled people are treated as a burden and less than human. 

We are constantly infantalized and treated like we don’t understand our own condition.

The constant, ableist suggestions. “Have a more positive attitude and you’ll feel better!” Sorry, Becky, but a positive attitude is not going to make any of my physical ailments go away. Also, stop telling disabled people to go gluten free unless they absolutely have to. I have celiac disease and can attest to the fact that a gluten free diet has not helped any of my conditions that are unrelated to celiac disease.

The belittling, the comments of “You don’t look [insert disability here],” “You don’t look sick,” “Of course you can do this thing that you just told me you can’t,” “You don’t need help,” etc.

Disabled people constantly being told that we have to overcome our disabilities. No. That’s not how that works. We have to live with them, find ways to work around them if we can.

Being constantly told that we’re letting the disability win when we need assistance or need to rest, like taking care of ourselves is weak. It’s not, and if we didn’t take care of ourselves, we’d be dead.

Abled people acting like they know more about someone’s disability than the disabled person.

The incredibly common bullying of disabled people. 

The use of slurs like “freak” and “retard”.

The use of autistic and other disabilities as a joke and an insult.

Damaging therapies like ABA to “fix” an autistic person and make them act neurotypical. 

Neurotypical-normativity: society wanting people to act and look neurotypical and shaming traits that are not.

The mental and physical abuse of disabled people. 

Telling disabled people that they should be locked up.

The idea in mainstream media that mentally ill people are dangerous and evil.

The use of overall disability in horror as a bad thing.

Cops commonly shoot mentally ill and autistic people because of the traits they are exhibiting.

Disabled people being killed by strangers and family as “mercy killings.”

The requirement to receive financial aid for disability in America is to be poor. If you make too much money, too much being seen as a little over $1,000 a month, you get your aid taken away from you. The American government does not want disabled people to thrive and lead fulfilling lives.

The idea that if you can’t work, you’re useless and a waste of space.

In America, disabled people will get their aid taken away if they get married.

The ridiculous costs of medical care and medication.

The inaccessibility of care and financial aid.

People forcing disabled people to do things they can’t or shouldn’t, things that hurt and damage us. Yes, I can walk up stairs, but it hurts me to do so. Yes, you can touch a pan that just came out of the oven, but it would hurt. Stop making us touch the hot pan.

That’s all I can think of at the moment. Please feel free to add more.

What to do if you suddenly find yourself homeless

FOOD

Find your nearest food bank or mission, for food

grocery stores with free samples, bakeries + stores with day-old bread

different fast food outlets have cheaper food and will generally let you hang out for a while.

some dollar stores carry food like cans of beans or fruit

SHELTER

Sleeping at beaches during the day is a good way to avoid suspicion and harassment

sleep with your bag strapped to you, so someone can’t steal it

Some churches offer short term residence

Find your nearest homeless shelter

Look for places that are open to the public

A large dumpster near a wall can often be moved so that flipping up the lids creates an angled shelter to stay dry

HYGIENE

A membership to the YMCA is usually only 10$, which has a shower, and sometimes laundry machines and lockers.

Public libraries have bathrooms you can use

Dollar stores carry low-end soaps and deodorant etc.

Wet wipes are all purpose and a life saver

Local beaches, go for a quick swim

Some truck stops have showers you can pay for

Staying clean is the best way to prevent disease, and potentially get a job to get back on your feet

Pack 7 pairs of socks/undies, 2 outfits, and one hooded rain jacket

OTHER

first aid kit

 sunscreen

 a travel alarm clock or watch

 mylar emergency blanket

 a backpack is a must

 downgrade your cellphone to a pay as you go with top-up cards

 sleeping bag

 travel kit of toothbrush, hair brush/comb, mirror

 swiss army knife

 can opener

Take of this what you will, I just needed to dump some thoughts I guess. Sorry for wasting your time.

I have been taking effexor for a long time now. I’ve been battling my depression and anxiety for so much longer. The things that have greatly effected my mental health in the past seem to have healed, at least I hope. The thing is I won’t know till I go off my meds. Do I want to know if I have gotten? Why would I when I can stay in this numb state? Is it truly worth going through all the insanity of it’s withdrawal? 

I just don’t want to hurt anyone anymore then I already have, but don’t I have a say in the matter of my state of feeling!! I want to feel again!! I want to Feel love again!! I want to Stop Feeling NUMB to what hurts me!! When I’m on my meds I don’t feel sadness completely, and when this numbness happens it makes me feel even worse then it should because I know that I should have some sort of reaction to the situation but the effects of my meds stops me from most normal sad reactions. It’s like a messed up shield that blocks out the feeling that I should feel from outer situations, but it also seals in the self hatred and other poisonous feelings that I need to push out of myself.... all at the same time it also puts some sort of container around it so that I can only half feel it, but the worst half of it.  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I JUST DONE KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN IT!! I WANT TO SCREAM AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME!!!!! I FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE CONTRADICTORY TO EVERYTHING THAT I FEEL!!!!!!

      I just don’t want to be like this any more. I wish that I could just live a normal life that wasn’t clouded by distractions and other things that fuck with me. I swear that I belong in a insane asylum some times because as much as I hate to say it but I do hear voices. They never make any proper sentences and sometimes they can be very easily ignored, but then there is times when they just WON’T SHUT THE FUCK UP!! 

god this post wasn’t meant to be this, all over the place i guess. but this is just      ugh never mind. i give up. take it as you will. im done with trying to make sense of this.

[steins-extra-gate]

LMFAO

[steins-extra-gate]

me: *catches myself being judgmental* me to me: i did not raise u this way

[steins-extra-gate]

I promise I'm not insane, at least I don't think I am

I can feel my skin beating with my heart I can hear the movement of my eyes I can feel certian sounds and vice versa My meds betrays me with my body at it’s command.

Withdrawal symptoms

I fucking hate my meds. Theres only 2 reason's why I'm still on them. 1. I love my job so I take them just to make sure i don't get emotionally attached to any of the kids I with and 2. The withdrawal of these fuckers suck!!
