i always see sensory avoidant autistic people talking about how their favourite foods are all plain carbs but where are the sensory seeking autistics who live on garlic and spicy foods? the ones who will eat a straight lemon and hate buttered noodles.

Everytime I hear about a school shooting my mind goes to the disabled students, teachers, and personnel who can’t hide as smoothly as others, whose disability doesn’t allow them to be quiet and still, who can’t run…
I mean, obviously it’s a situation no one should be in but I hope there is something in place to help disabled people during a school shooting.

I have to ask can people who have GAD use this flag?
Yes! This flag represents anxiety disorders, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is an anxiety disorder.
The other anxiety disorders are: social anxiety disorder (SAD), panic disorder (PD), specific phobia (SP), agoraphobia (AG), separation anxiety disorder (SAD), health anxiety/hypochondria (HA) and selective/situational mutism (SM). They often overlap. :) /infodump

Posted this "funny meme" 3 years ago today on Facebook.. I'm mad at myself for still thinking of my many slowly progressing illnesses and injuries as jokes back then.
Wish I didn't still consider my physical state back then something I could push through instead of listening to my doctors, my body, and everyone else in my life who could tell my body wasn't going to hold out forever.
My reality today (or even worse) could be yours as well if you're suffering from an ED, exercise addiction, etc. and you don't recover- you will live on in misery like me, or you die will in horrifying pain.
I just spent a hour on the toilet trying to pee and gave up because my back pain was too severe to stay there- but the compression between my spinal discs makes it so I am unable to empty my bladder in under an hour due to nerve damage. Makes it impossible to fall back asleep if I have to pee at night because I become wide awake, and the pain from whatever position I ended up in during the couple hours of sleep I do get doesn't help. Then I have to switch out ice packs, get my 6 pillows rearranged to prop my body *just so* to maybe get enough of a break from the pain so sleep sets in, and get a drink because the 25+ pills I take a day all give me dry mouth- makes the peeing situation even better!
You don't want this, and if you think you're "not sick enough," "don't deserve recovery," etc., you're wrong.
I know pretty much everyone who follows this blog suffers from an eating disorder, exercise addiction, or some other form of self harm- get help, now. Before it's too late.
My inbox is open to all of you- i am not a doctor, therapist, etc., but I will listen to you and tell you what I know from my own experience to see if I can help you choose to seek the proper care you deserve before you end up like me-or worse.
A reminder though: anyone with EDs suffers, so don't make your blog a place that encourages others to suffer, even if you think it's "just for you." Most of my personal thoughts lately have been "trigger warning" city, so I write them out in drafts to feel like I've spilled into the void, then I save it, and never publish it- saves my readers from seeing the unhealthy things that my mind is full of these days when I start to write out a personal post and notice it going real dark.
Private blogs exist too.
We're all suffering, but letting your suffering hurt others is never ok. Do not promote eating disordered or self harm behavior- your actions affect more than just you.

Give me more (or any??) disabled couples in media. Now. I need it. Give me couples who have different support needs, couples who are both disabled in completely different ways. Someone who’s nonverbal with an adhder. A blind person with a wheelchair user. An autistic person with someone who’s Deaf. I want disabled characters who lift each other up and trade advice and aides. I want characters who’s disabilities clash SO fucking hard but they love eachother and make it work.
Why is it when physically disabled or neurodivergent characters exist in a relationship, people assume an abled/ neurotypical person has to be apart of that equation??

You rag on people who can't properly cook (or can't even cook at all) and I'm going to fucking gouge your eyes out.
Yes, I may be able to grab snacks for myself and simple microwaveable shit but even then I need assistance some of the time and I can barely make shit that actually properly counts as a meal. My disabilities fuck with my ability to properly feed myself and if I run out of food I don't have the ability to hop in a car and get more, or even get something like Instacart because I'm rural as shit and we don't have things like that out here. To put it simply if I don't get help making and obtaining food I will starve. I consider being able to cook a privilege. I don't care if it's considered a basic life skill to most, not everyone can fucking cook.

Dialogue with Gemini (25) Mental disabilities and Olympics, Paralympics
Paralypic Flag
My question:
There are cases where people with mental disabilities can compete in the Paralympics, but can they compete in the Olympics?
精神障害者がパラリンピックに出場できる例はあるようだが、オリンピックには出場できるのだろうか?
Gemini’s answer:
No, people with mental disabilities cannot compete in the Olympics.
The Olympics are designed for athletes who have no disabilities, while the Paralympic Games are specifically for athletes with disabilities. This distinction ensures fair competition and highlights the incredible achievements of athletes with impairments.
While the Paralympics have expanded to include more diverse disabilities over the years, mental disabilities are not currently included in the eligibility criteria.
Huggingface’s answer:
Yes, a mentally disabled person can compete in the Olympics. The Olympic Charter has no provisions preventing a mentally disabled person from competing in the Olympics. Whether or not a person can compete in the Olympics depends on the eligibility criteria set by each sports federation and the decision of the national Olympic committee.
To compete in the Olympics, an athlete must first meet national and international standards in a particular sport. Each sports federation sets the eligibility criteria for its sport and determines the requirements that an athlete must meet to compete in the Olympics. These criteria may include various factors such as age, ranking, and athletic performance.
In addition, to compete in the Olympics, an athlete must be selected to represent the country by the national Olympic committee. Each national Olympic committee has its own criteria and process for determining which athletes will compete in the Olympics.
Although cases of mentally disabled people competing in the Olympics are rare, they are not impossible. At the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, American swimmer Michael Andrew was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and competed in the Olympics. He won a silver medal in the 200-meter individual medley, becoming the first Olympic medalist with autism.
Special considerations and accommodations for mentally disabled athletes competing in the Olympics vary by sports federation and national Olympic committee. These organizations must assess the needs of athletes and consider mental disabilities that may affect Olympic eligibility.
Efforts are underway across the sports world to increase the number of mentally disabled athletes competing in the Olympics. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) has made efforts to increase the inclusion of mentally disabled athletes in both the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The IPC has launched a program called the "Agitos Foundation" that aims to expand the Paralympic eligibility criteria and allow more mentally disabled athletes to participate.
In summary, there are people with mental disabilities who can compete in the Olympics, but their eligibility and opportunities vary by sports federation and national Olympic committee. The number of mentally disabled athletes competing in the Olympics is still limited, but the sports world is making efforts to increase their inclusion.
Impression:
The two AIs came to opposing conclusions. Looking at actual operations, Gemini's answer seems to be more correct. I don't know of any cases where a mentally disabled person has been able to participate in the Olympic or Paralympic Games.

why is it that everyone always frames mental health medication as either this evil thing or as something to “fix” you?
no. absolutely not. mental health medication is a tool, just like wearing glasses, but it can save lives. you can say what you want, say it’s because of other factors, but without medication and therapy, I don’t think I would be alive, and even if I was, I think I would be brain dead from the depression. I’ve gone through periods where I couldn’t even get out of bed because of how bad it was. I at one point had to take a month off of school because my grades were declining because my mental health was going to shit.
a huge part of that was because I was taken off of prozac.
and no, I’m not ‘sick’. I hate the term ‘mentally ill’ so much, because it’s so much different than a sickness. especially when people refer to anyone who takes meds as ‘sick’. it’s one thing if it’s for depression, but for OCD, ADHD, anxiety, that’s not a sickness. that’s not ‘curable’.
medication helps, so so much. it may not work for some people, and you might not find the right prescription first try, and it might not even make you happy, it didn’t for me.
but it takes away some of that hopelessness, of what I call ‘feeling grey’. and if you try to frame medication as this evil, terrible thing, or some way to ‘cure’ people, you’ll only end up hurting more people in the process.
#rant#mental health#mental disabilities#neurodivergence#medication#mental health medication#medication is a tool.#you wouldn’t deny someone with a physical disability medication because it didn’t work for someone else#or hell even a sick person#yes the industry may be corrupt but do not blame the meds itself#blame the people in charge

It’s really fucked up having ableds getting aggressively mad or annoyed when they see a disabled person doing something they think we shouldn’t be doing, like having children or going to places of entertainment that aren’t normally made to be inclusive (i.e. discos, pubs, parties, rave parties, clubs, concerts, stadiums, etc.).
Can you imagine telling any other group of individuals that they shouldn’t have children? Can you imagine another historical period in which it was normal forbidding entire groups of people from having children (or even getting married)?
Also, if your reasoning for not allowing a disabled person in a crowded place because it could be dangerous you are just putting the blame on the disabled person instead of on the discriminative situation and your own bias. Besides, it’s like implying that disabled people can’t take care of themselves and decide where they can and want to go. Do you realise how paternalistic that sounds?
Also, if you’re of the opinion that disabled people shouldn’t belong to runways to represent their community in the modelling industry because you think that only perfect bodies can do that then, grow the fuck up, Jeremy!, the World is changing and so the needs of what we want to see and represent. Perfect bodies don’t exist. Same goes with movies, tv, music, media and all kinds of entertainment. And jobs.
Deal with it, people, I don’t know what else to tell ya.

Hi, I'm looking for the ptsd flag with the symbol and I can't found it. do you have it?
Hi! It seems that the original designer of this ptsd flag has either had their account deleted by Tumblr or deleted their account. It was @your-fave-has-ptsd. If anyone knows about what appened to them or if they have a new blog, please tell me so I can credit them! /genuine
Fortunately, I've kept the flags on my computer, so here they are! I've also done a png version of the symbol. However, the quality of it isn't great because I've done this edit a long time ago. I don't have the spoons to re-edit it. So, if someone who sees this posts has the spoons to do a better quality version, it would be very cool! :)
PS: have a nice pride month! <3
[IMAGE ID: A flag with five horizontal stripes of the same size. Their colors are, from top to bottom, red, light red, cyan, blue and dark blue. In the middle of the flag there is a simplistic white symbol of an open hand with a young plant. END ID]

Pills
[pt: Pills]
tw, coercion, mental hospital
i had to take two pills every day in the hospital.
one was meant to stop my period, it made it go in forever. i couldn't get to see a doctor for help, i was stuck with cramps and blood the whole 14 days i was there.
the second was an antidepressant. an SSRI, they never told me what it was called. i didn't have depression, they just gave it to me. it made me sick. i haven't felt well since they made me take them.
in the "hold" they got tired of me acting up they told me i had to take a little white pill or they would take all my things. i was so angry with the stupid nurse i threw a juice box at her. she yelled at me for being immature i think, but isn't that a normal response to being coerced into taking a little white pill?
#i wish i knew what that pill was#it was a sedative#thats all they told me#ive tried to find it in my records but i onky have some of them#disability#nuero punk#autism#autipunk#mental disabilities#auti punk#nueropunk#mad punk#mad pride#tw mental hospital
