Please help me fund my PTSD Service Dog!
Tumblr media
If you're willing & able, maybe you could donate to my personal PayP.? 🤞🏼🖤
I dislike giving away my online anonymity but i'm also poor lol
The service dog would help me go outside again. Simple things like getting my own groceries or going to appointments. Simple things I am unable to to because my own brain isn't wired properly.
We're also setting up a cr0wdfund for this. And it is actually giving me a lot of stress. - Being perceived and all that :/ - But things have been set in motion!
I might make an in-depth post about all my woes, but the main concern is trauma/ ptsd.
[☆] The dog pictured above is NOT a service dog, he just wears this bandana whenever we're going to (dog friendly) events because we don't want people to be all over him. There's a few more posts on my page if you want to see more photos of him.

MRI of a neuroscientist kissing her 2-month-old son offers a modern, unforgettable take on the classic mother-child portrait. They're curled up inside a 3 Tesla MRI scanner, surrounded by its loud beeps and bangs. Despite the noise, the baby sleeps soundly on his mom's chest, allowing for a clear image of their brains. Capturing this took several minutes, and even a millimeter of movement could blur the scan.
For some, this image highlights the delicate nature of human life; for others, it symbolizes the timeless connection between any mother and child. The contrasting brain structures-smaller, smoother, and darker in the baby-make this moment even more fascinating. [x]

almost none of the reasons why i support abortion rights have anything to do with babies. really it’s more about the fact that I think the government shouldn’t be able to force you to lend all your organs to someone else and change irreparably in the process. is a fetus a person? I don’t care! If it is a person, I don’t want anyone to be forced to host one against their will! If it isn’t a person, guess what? Nobody should be forced to host one against their will! What’s a soul? What’s a person? When does life begin? IRRELEVANT! A world in which the government can force anyone to manufacture an entirely new human body at the cost of their own is not a world I want to live in!

Will go insane if I think too much about how puppies (and other cute, little pets) are more protected/ have more rights than a newborn baby.

This is a reminder that your parents/guardians are supposed to feed you, give you shelter and clothes. These should not be seen as favors nor should they be pushing these things to be seen as favors they do for you. This is literally the bare minimum of what they signed up for and you deserve so much more than the bare minimum without being made to feel guilty about any of it.

I can’t think of nothing more cruel than forcing a woman to gestate the child of a rapist because you believe that your imaginary omnipotent friend will be angry otherwise. It’s barbaric.

It’s not talked about enough that you are allowed to be angry.
It doesn’t mean you aren’t healing. It doesn’t mean you’re failing. It doesn’t mean you’re a bad person.
You are allowed to be angry at whoever hurt you. Your anger is a valid and real feeling. 
While it's important to be careful how we handle that anger, the feeling itself is completely valid. Anger doesn't have to be destructive and in some cases, can be used constructively.
You're allowed to feel how you feel.

Adoptee Remembrance Day 💛
To those who died by suicide and those who were murdered by people who should've been family.

reunion/meeting/re-meeting/getting to know your birth family is not smooth at all and I wish that non adoptees knew this and could hold more understanding and empathy for us who are trying our best to navigate this situation when all the barriers are stacked against you
it's not smooth like you see in the media, in your films and your games, and I wish that people could take their time to understand how different and difficult and easy and smooth and heartbreaking and simple and complicated it can be for so many of us.
please don't take your information for granted

(disliking how I can’t follow #adoption because it's mostly filled with pets or oc art)
