Do other folks of color have to deal with the: "cultural stuff not only getting worn, but renamed, despite it existing with its own specific name for decades if not centuries" level of appropriation or is it just us- like a genuine question, I am personally surprised everyday.
black cis women centralize themselves way too much during the conversation of who invented ballroom. they never give credit specifically to queer Black people about the culture Black transfemmes & Black gay men created for themselves & by themselves
be more specific, Black TRANS women invented ballroom. stop trying to rewrite decades of history & culture
10 Things To Remember if You're Chronically Overwhelmed
Feeling chronically overwhelmed may be a trauma response. Trauma activates the flight or fight response in our bodies. This activation engages the sympathetic nervous system. Sympathetic nervous system activation releases stress hormones like cortisol and epinephrine. In the presence of danger, these hormones help us survive. When danger is not present, these hormones can cause you to feel overwhelmed and can lead to physical symptoms of stress to include increased heart rate, sweating and digestive issues. After experiencing trauma, it is possible that your sympathetic nervous system may be hyperactivated. This hyperactivation may culminate in chronically feeling stressed, on edge, hypervigilant, jumpy or on guard. It may be difficult to relax. The good news is that you can reset a hyperactivated nervous system through trauma healing.
