☆in combatting ableism one must also understand that being an "attention seeker" does not, on its own, make someone a bad person & that wanting / seeking attention is not inherently a negative trait or a moral failing

#hi this post is made by a histrionic about histrionic personality disorder 👍 please be kind #people can seek attention in ways that harm themselves or others yes. but seeking attention on its own is not a Bad Thing!#(getting hashtag vulnerable for A Moment) i personally cope by being a “content creator” lol. and it helps! it works very well!#it brings me so much joy that people enjoy my art #but ALSO it is a healthy outlet for me to “seek” attention / have a steady supply in a way that harms nobody :)#anyway yeah seeking attention is not a bad thing. im not necessarily saying that using “attention seeker” as an insult is /ableist/#but it IS ableist to treat people who seek attention (esp in harmless ways & esp if they can't help it) as if they're doing something wrong #☆💬 / text #honestly histrionic #histrionic personality disorder
