There’s no escape for anyone

If we want change in the disability community we need to stop with the Gate keeping, the gaslighting, and the belittling

You can't fight for disability rights while still being an ableist, especially when so many of us have multiple disabilities.

Fighting for rights for physically disabled people but then being ableist towards mentally disabled people and vice versa is just going against and back firing on our own community.

(I had to edit this a couple times since before it was worded very poorly. Thank you for being patient with me.)

Legitimately wondering, why does every healthcare professional straight up ignore the end of every diagnostic criteria where it says this

[melodymorningdew]

I am honoring my true self by allowing myself space to be enraged.

I love you, me. Your anger is valid. I ignored you for too long and I'm sorry.

undiagnosed ocd culture is realising that feeling like you’re a uniquely terrible person who will be horrifically punished eventually if you don’t repost the correct information about current news/politics/movements

u ever just wanna

[bizarreaizen]

here's the thing about undiagnosed or self diagnosed individuals, it's not that we want to have these mental illnesses and or disorders, it's just we just want to know what's the reason for all of the things that we are experiencing, we've been either denied to get diagnosed by our family and or parents or even the healthcare itself or we just don't have the money to get diagnosed, even if we don't actually have these disorders or illnesses, we just at least want to know the truth instead of being confused all the time and doubting ourselves /srs

Man, one of the worst feelings is when you feel like you're not suffering enough.

You'd go through the most traumatic thing you've ever gone through in your life, deal with it, then feel fine months later. Then you'll see a story of someone with the same issue as you, but seemingly worse, and you feel like you're faking it.

Once you try to will the feeling to return so you can feel validated, nothing happens, and you feel like you're faking it.

Then you do some little things that relate to your illness, but it's not the worst it has been. And you're faking it.

You reminisce on the past, and you'll try to convince yourself it really wasn't that bad, and try to tell yourself it's not what you thought it was, it was just a rough patch.

But then you feel the disappointment of "being wrong" and want the bad things to happen again, just so you can be right about your suspicion. Because you feel like you're faking it.

Little things are enough in the long run.

Nothing was fake. Your suffering was real.

Stay strong, babes. You can get through this.

people should really stop joking about mental disorders

rebelling against my anxiety by doing everything im scared of

[trickstergemini]

im a narcissist not because i think im better than anyone else but because i learned to switch off my empathy early on in my childhood as a defense mechanism for constantly being bombarded with high standards and (mostly religious) guilt by my cold and distant mormon mother and instead focus attention and praise on myself because it was never truly given to me when i was younger and i just think the world is not ready to hear that

[voidedheart]

I repeat it like a mantra: love me love me love me love me love me love me love me love me love me

and then: please hate me please hate me please hate me please hate me please hate me please

[troldrik]

I think one of the worst feelings in the world is when you're just trying to give your input/your opinion on something and people think you just wanna sound smart or be a know-it-all

maybe if it didn’t take me like five hours to start my day
