Doctors who tell patients to "manage their stress better" need to first ensure they are not a primary cause of patient stress. Your era's doctors are egregiously bad about waving things off as "just stress" and not acknowledging the stress that causes patients. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked, spoon

QUICK PSA FOR THE DISABLED COMMUNITY

If you take any daily medication, do not eat grapefruit or activated charcoal unless you know for a fact they won’t affect your medication.

Both Grapefruit and Activated Charcoal will cancel out medication.

‘Where would you ever eat activated charcoal?’ You may be asking

Well

Halloween eve is here y’all and if you want a black cocktail or cupcake, it was probably made black with activated charcoal! So please double check before consuming!!

There is a cool and popular tweet about Samus Aran microwaving spoons but we could not find it so I had to reconstruct it from memory*

*I have never seen the thing in question so I had to invent a memory first.

Are you heading for a burnout without even realizing it? For neurodivergent folks, the warning signs of burnout may look different and be harder to recongize. 

Neurodivergent or not, we all need to understand our limits and boundaries. When you’re neurodivergent, you may not know you pushed yourself too far - until it’s too late!

Need help with some of the terms in this post?

😎 “Masking” or “Camouflaging": a coping strategy that many neurodivergent people use to suppress aspects of themselves to appear neurotypical. It’s important to note that social masking is a tool many neurospicy folks use to keep themselves safe, and usually starts in childhood. 🥄 “Spoons” refers to Spoon Theory, which is a metaphor describing the amount of physical or mental energy that a person has for daily activities and tasks. It is a helpful tool for disabled and neurodivergent folks to describe their energy. 👋 “Stim” short for "self-stimulation" is a term used to describe repetitive behaviors or movements that people may engage in to help cope with emotions. It may include rocking, flapping hands or twirling. 

If any of this resonates with you, try letting the “mask” slip a little!

💖 Low Spoons Devotion Ideas💖

As a chronically ill worshipper myself, I understand the need for low spoon devotional activities! This list is just things that personally work for Lady Aphrodite and I, that maybe you could incorporate into your worship as well! Without further ado, here’s the list:

💖 Have a dedicated TV show: for example, I enjoy watching bridgerton with Lady Aphrodite, but it can really be anything that you feel aligns with your deities domain!

💖 Share a meal or drink that you were planning on consuming anyways: this id always a great option, as not only is it a great way to show your devotion, but it is also a reminder to take care of yourself when you’re low on energy!

💖 Do some looking into your deity online: personally, i find that reading is always a great low spoon activity (assuming that the lack of spoons is physical not mental), and incorporating your deity in this can be a great way to grow closer!

💖 Simply pray: prayer doesn’t have to be fancy, or full of offerings and mood lighting. Your time is offering enough, so is your devotion. Just take a moment to thank your deity for any blessings they may have brought your way!

💖 Rest: while this may seem counter intuitive, resting and taking a break *can* be devotional. Dedicate your nap to your deity. Your health should always come first, and from personal experience, and the experience of those I speak to, the gods do want you to rest.

If I missed anything you think should be on the list, please let me know!!
