logging back outta here for a lil bit, I’ll try to come back at least every week. I miss my cripplepunk mutuals but I’m enjoying the freedom of my jirai account.

creepy photographer got called out and now he’s calling me ‘very ill’ and ‘unhinged’ and using psychotic as an insult

because he’s been called out for being a creep, flirting with minors and trying to take advantage of me while i was piss piss drunk

This is what I want at cosplay meets by the way. I want to be included. I want people to interact with me and have fun like they would with abled people. I’m not saying I need to be in the middle but I am saying I don’t want to be left off to the side. I love you League of Legends fandom 💙

I’m actually terrified of going to the psych ward as a wheelchair user and I’m still being threatened with being sectioned.

"But why would so many ableist people even want to work in a group home or a psych ward?" Because they want to hold power over vulnerable people. Next question.

*Deaf/Hard of Hearing = anyone with any amount of hearing loss. for the purpose of this poll this does not count people with APD who do not have hearing loss

*APD only = you have APD and do not have hearing loss.

if you have both APD and hearing loss then select the D/HOH option

APD = auditory processing disorder

im really fucking unwell still, it seems every time my physical health stabilises my mental health gets so much worse.

[aetherial-boy]

so, within a few months I had a massive psychotic episode, still tried to go sell at a convention where I was treated HORRIBLY by staff, almost got sectioned and am now looking at a bipolar 1 diagnosis.

so yeah, my life kinda got fucked up again.

i have never met an unpsychotic person who knows what it actually means to “not encourage the delusion” …not a single one

People are fine with sadness, but the second you say ‘I hear voices,’ suddenly you’re scary.

Madness deserves compassion too, it’s just another form of pain.

Far too much talk about how "dangerous" psychotic/schizophrenic people are. Far too little talk about how easy it can be for an abuser to take advantage of a person who is already labeled as "crazy". We're usually among the victims - not the perpetrators.

"trans men can just act apathetic and confident to pass and avoid being hate crimed! I do it!" maybe YOU can do that, I can do anything and everything and still get bottles thrown at my head!

In other news, my recent jirai kei outfits, because jfashion summer is in full swing and I’m loving it.

hey, i’m half active over hete while i think about what the fuck i wanna say on disability stuff. i’m still a cripplepunk, but i’m also struggling mentally and finding a lot of comfort in the jirai community, which i engage with from a separate account. i love all my disability + cripplepunk mutuals but right now isn’t a good time for me to be advocating and on this blog. i’ll be back, just give me a few weeks to get myself sorted out.

People with significant scarring aren't obliged to cover up their bodies to make you feel comfortable, but also visible scars aren't an invitation to start asking invasive questions either. It's still none of your fucking business

you’d be surprised at how many doctors will tell you that schizophrenics shouldn’t masturbate, have sexual fantasies or write/draw erotica, let alone date or have actual sex, because it “distracts them from recovery”, as if schizophrenia is a two week course of antibiotics and not a lifelong neurotype and disability
