Normalize gatekeeping your lore because most people are terrible listeners and not worth reliving your trauma over.

what abled ppl think is a massive problem for disabled folks: 13 year old on the internet faking something

what is actually a massive problem for disabled folks: "well you don't LOOK disabled, are you sure you're not faking? I'm not giving you accommodations until you PROVE you're not faking. Please give me, a stranger, your medical info and explain your condition to me in detail so I know you're not faking and only then will I respect or take you seriously"

Hey all, I've been thinking of making some little infographics. I've already got one for 'NPD hierarchies' in the works, but I would like to know others I should make... primarily/preferably for PPD, since that is the blog's focus after all, but I'd like to know if anyone has any ideas for things they want me to write up even if it's not PPD related!

As someone who lives with suicidal ideation, I want to shout out to people living with homicidal ideation. I feel like most people don't see it this way, but we are two sides of the same coin. We both find ourselves overwhelmed with intolerable distress, be it rage, fear or despair, and our brains want to solve it through violence - we just choose different targets. We both face being mistreated and being stripped of our autonomy when we voice these thoughts, but the mistrust, misunderstanding and fear are no doubt even greater for people with HI.

Homicidal thoughts deserve as much compassion as suicidal thoughts. A homicidal crisis deserves as much tenderness as a suicidal crisis. Knowing someone is experiencing either is scary and, yes, should be approached with caution, ideally by people who know how to keep everyone involved safe. But no one is evil or wrong for being in crisis.

Folks with homicidal thoughts, I see the strength and courage it takes to fight against a reaction to destroy everything. Holding onto all the reasons why we don't truly want to act on these urges. Soothing a mind that thinks harming others or ourselves is the only solution. It's okay to have safe spaces to express yourself. It's okay to talk about the thoughts you have and the scenarios you imagine. I have them too - different, but not that different.

You deserve support too.

Advice for people with HI. Advice for loved ones.

In regards to 'altruistic NPD' - it's entirely ironic (and frustrating) to have a 'philanthropic' version of a disorder that is stereotyped as making a person cartoonishly evil and abusive, but knowing full well if you try and tell people you aren't really the usual stereotype, you are going to be accused of being manipulative and corrupt in secret anyway and ableists will try their damn best to 'expose' that side of you, and will do/say anything to do this, including becoming an abuser themselves (but vehemently deny such a fact).

"altruistic narcissism" signs based off my experience with it

-You hate the idea of being less moral than others, and want to become the most moral person. You view morality as a competition which you hope to win at.

-You find euphoria (narc supply) in helping others, either from within yourself or from external sources like people being grateful towards you.

-You excessively people please and self-sacrifice in hopes of currying people's favor/being liked, being overly giving at your own expense.

-You have a rigid and inflexible moral code that you refuse to bend on, seeing it as the objective truth or standard for the world even if it is deeply wrong.

-You have a tendency to view others as in need of your help when they really do not need it.

-You might fantasize about being able to fix problems like world hunger, bigotry, and climate change and believe you're the one capable of fixing these problems if you jUst HaD thE PowER. (mocking myself here)

-You tend to split over people you've helped, especially if they don't seem grateful for your help.

-You feel as if you're one of the only moral individuals in a deeply cruel world.

-You might misidentify yourself as an "empath" or as having special capabilities that make you magically better at dealing with people than others.

-You feel the urge to share your good deeds with as many people as possible rather than just keeping them between you and whoever you were performing the good deeds for.

-You "couldn't possibly be a narcissist" according to others because people don't associate pro-social/kind/compassionate behavior with NPD.

-You have had trouble relating with the stereotypical image of the self-centered narcissist bully that is so commonly circulated.

(I am not a psychiatrist and this is not a diagnostic criteria, "altruistic narcissism" isn't an official term in relation to NPD, just one I've seen floating around, this is highly based off my own experienced as an undiagnosed narcissist)
