shoutout to people who spend tons of time on their phones because that’s all they can physically and mentally handle on most days.

don’t let anyone shame you for that. you’re doing the best you can.

Being chronically ill is just like spinning The Wheel Of Shit That Can Go Wrong listening to it clack incessantly for five minutes straight and then watching it land on a new devastatingly life altering symptom about once a month

"Where does it hurt?"

"Yes."

I got to go out on my powered wheelchair for the first time today, the freedom to be able to just do something by myself was amazing , the battery did die on me though which did dampen the mood as I had to be rescued by my carer and i was embarrassed ( it was a battery fault and its being fixed ) but I am just so happy I got to leave the house without needing someone with me and just enjoy that independence I had before becoming disabled

it’s ok if you need meds to function, even if your condition is chronic and you will have to take them your whole life.

sending out some positivity to those of us who have fluctuating verbality.

people who are semi-verbal.

people who are unable to talk when they’re stressed (or for any reason).

people who are mostly nonverbal.

people who are verbal but struggle with communication.

people who struggle with verbality due to autism.

people who struggle with verbality for literally any reason.

y’all are valid as heck, and your preferred methods of communication deserve to be respected.

I phoned around some different companies and found a chair that meets my needs and is in my budget and should be with me in the next week or so! Fingers crossed this all goes to plan this time

Communication feels like arguing when you have a hard time expressing your emotions.

This was always so stressful, and I didn't understand why other people didn't feel the same way until I got my autism diagnosis

that bad sensory moment when you’re trying to do something that requires a lot of focus and the people around you are talking loudly and you’re just sitting there like $&@&&@@^%#%^%***++*%%#%^*+%%%

Considering seeking help is a sign that you need to, that it is important and that it is ‘bad enough.’

Mentally well people don’t consider contacting crisis lines or booking doctor’s appointments for the fun of it.

You won’t be wasting resources or taking up time - these resources exist for you to access them when you need.

Stay safe out there and look after yourselves.
