#or reminding you to take medication

I think when people think of mental illness and what helps, especially with things like anxiety and depression, the treatment involves pushing yourself. Pushing yourself to get out of bed, to exercise, to take a shower, to go out in public, to order your own food from the cashier, etc.

And because the mental health movement has grown so much, people think that's the default of ALL illnesses. That the only way someone will get better is if they push themselves. That practice makes perfect. That you'll become more comfortable or strong over time the more you do something.

But what people need to realize is, with physical disabilities and chronic illnesses, pushing yourself in most cases is DETRIMENTAL. Pushing yourself past your limits can lead to flare ups or further injury. That's why it's important to know your limits, how certain activities may affect your condition, and learn how to either adapt or get help to complete the activity in question.

Also, most of us are already pushing ourselves. Most of us don't have access to the help or equipment we need. Most of us live in places where we frequently encounter inaccessible obstacles. Most of us NEED to rest.

So please don't try to be our physical therapists or doctors. There are people specifically trained to help us navigate our own conditions and limitations. There are people trained to help us strengthen our body's resilience without causing flare-ups or injury. Do not tell us "it'll be good for you" or "you need the exercise" when we say something is too heavy or too far or when we say we need our mobility aid(s). Your friend with depression may need to be encouraged to get out of bed, but your friend with chronic illness definitely doesn't.

Respect our rest.

scribbles based on my Another Wonderful Life file where i discovered Rock and Nami showing up together at Vesta’s farmhouse late at night on multiple occasions to cause various types of chaos and disturbance and havoc until Marlin and Vesta’s bedtime (which they both announce in unison to kick everyone out) this included

Rock levitating and attempting to rizz up vesta

Nami making a beeline for Celia’s room where she stands around making very subtle remarks (celia isn’t even in her room)

Marlin Enduring

Did you remember to take your meds? (1)

[spacemanxpaninis]

Your f/o is so supportive of you taking your meds. Especially if you’re new to it and feel like they wouldn’t want to deal with someone who takes them. You sadly admit that you do but they just pull you close and tell you there’s nothing to be ashamed of, you can’t help it and they want you to feel better. “If these are the things that make you feel better, then how can I do anything but love them?”

endo: I hate psychiatric care!!! Anti psych!! Anti psych!!!! They didn’t play along with my roleplay about being plural without being disordered and without trauma, so they’re wrong!! I hate them!!!

endos: I’m getting death threats from anti endos… 🥺 (they were sent one rude ask, their community is about to flood inboxes with detailed step by step guides on how the receiver should die)

endos: anti sysmed guys, I want to roleplay my fav disorders and medical terms, and people with common sense who say it’s weird aren’t just sysmeds and incorrect grr!!!

people irl: hi my name’s Dave I work at kfc part time

STATUS UPDATES:

➯ FICSFORGAZA [!]

I am currently dealing with a family emergency and my ma has been rushed into hospital so I’ll be offline until things calms down, and progress on wips will slow considerably. I’m really sorry guys

➯ GOING INTO 2024

2023 has been rough for me in all manner of ways but I will say it has been very fruitful with regards to my writing. I managed surpass my goal of 100k words, reaching an unfathomable 150k at present, and I’ve even managed to hit a big milestone when it comes to my following! I’m extremely grateful to all my readers, both those that have stuck with me and those who are new, and I wish I had adequate words to really express that. but going into 2024 I will likely be writing less frequently than I did this year. this is due to my own health, and a multitude of other problems that I can no longer keep on the back burner.

plenty of you have seen mentions of hospital visits and procedures on my blog, and while I’m not very comfortable oversharing about medical stuff I do want to be transparent about the fact that I will be posting fics less because of it. I’ve been in and out of semi hiatus for the better part of 4 months but I was always awful at sticking to it. next year I want to actually give myself grace, and take care of my body.

please do not fear!!! this resolution actually aligns perfectly with my writing goals for 2024. I want to focus on lengthening my word counts. I’d love to post fewer fics, but to have said fics be 25 to 50k respectively, rather than to post a lot of 1 to 15k fics. mostly I want to work on my own impatience when it comes to writing, and berate myself less for what I think I should be doing writing-wise. I will still be around on here, and I always want to talk with you guys (and read whenever the mood strikes!!), the biggest difference is I’ll have longer projects, and you’ll have to wait for them (though if I’m honest I will likely still post a shorter fic here and there lol).

I appreciate the patience a lot of you have already shown me this year, what with my random breaks and gaps between posting. you have all been so so kind and generous with your praise and I wouldn’t be here, writing and sharing, without that support. I love you all and wish you well going into the new year!!!!!

whenever it's time for me to take my meds, i just think of mickey telling ian "take your pills, bitch" and i'm like okay mickey <3

that scene lives in my mind rent free. and not to mention the kiss on the top of ian's head and the head scratch??? 🥹

[kkpwnall]

in light of the election news, i would like to encourage everyone, and especially queer people to carefully consider any legal processes or medical procedures you’ve been thinking about, and the fact the inauguration is just over 2 months away. that’s not a lot of time, but it is time.

the republican party has made it explicitly, painfully clear with project 2025, and with the dobbs decision to overturn roe, that queer rights to healthcare and marriage are on the chopping block. we don’t know how quickly they’ll start to block access to things like name and gender marker changes, or gender affirming and reproductive surgeries. it’s a lot easier for them to enact policies that say “no more name changes / surgeries” than it is to say “you have to change your name back / get your tits and or dick sewn back on”

i’m not saying to do anything drastic, but if you’ve been thinking about it, if you’ve been on the fence about it, if you have the time and you have the funds, this is your sign it would be better to do these things sooner rather than later

[triptychofvoids]

Hiii! I'm back, and with a discovery! Turns out eating 3 proper meals a day and getting a good amount of rest significantly improves one's (my) mood! I used to think "how much can it actually help" until I started doign it!!!

-☎ anon, dead serious I didn't know it helped this much.

stimmt!! its true, i think a lot of people will scoff at this because theyre convinced it wont help, a lot of people think the advice for eating well and taking walks and sleeping etc is useless because i know a lot of people can get used to being told these things instead of their problems being taken seriously. and while it is true that if you have any assortment of conditions or disorders or illnesses and what have you, it can of course make things difficult, and of course eating right and sleeping well wont magically cure you but it DOES help. it really helps. it might surprise some of you but taking care of yourself is a good thing to do!! you are going to feel awful if you treat yourself awful, take care of yourselves bitte :]€

This will probably get looks from performative and ultimately harmful non-transfems despite my being transfem but-

Some y'alls only interaction with feminist history and theories, radical feminism regardless of its intersectionality and really any feminism deeper and louder and meaner than blatant choice feminism like the barbie movie and whatever TF taylor swift thinks shes got going on is through your occasional and short interactions with terfs and it shows. You call vagina art terfy and it fucking isnt. Its feminist art. Your brainrot is making you a fucking mra. The fact y'all think talking about the man vs bear situation is about/started/ran by terfs (and encouraged some really questionable other transfems shitting on it despite it clearly just being about women's safety and yes all men, not transphobia.), everything from questioning wether certain groups belong in our community to thinking a word is a slur or having a lesbian icon (I have sources don't test me) or not to not liking a certain band has been called "terf rhetoric". I'm all for us Transmascs talking about how terfs affect us cause they absolutely do and their harm to the transmasc community can not be understated but like.... Y'all are not allowed to call Jack shit terf rhetoric anymore. Like nothing. You don't know what it means, you litterally call transmedicalism and sysmedicalism terf rhetoric. Do you mean exclusionist? Say exclusionist. Terfs are not the end all be all hate group. They have a very specific complex mindset that affects so many people in specific ways. Someone hating Neopronouns is not fucking terf rhetoric. It's nbphobia. Holy fuck. Learn what words mean.

(intersectional trans radfems exist, radical feminism isn't terfs and swerfs and historical radfems would laugh in their faces for their idiocy)

blog runs mainly on queue, so if you see me active I'm not ignoring you, it's probably not me.

this is a hobby, i'm usually busy irl! i'm a college student + a full time job + a store i own to take care of, so it will usually take me a while to respond, be patient with me!!

this blog contains a little bit of everything as it is my personal diary. when i have free time i write, there will be slow updates so if this bothers you (and you are looking to have exclusive anime-only content on your dash, i.e. not real people, movies, series etc from time to time), i would recommend not following me

You share an edit made by your friend bc it’s good and you love them and the anons come and try to pull you back into a fandom you basically stopped participating in over a year ago.

I don’t dislike the Arrowfam, my url is the same for a reason, but like guys- I cannot stress enough how much BETTER my mental health has gotten now that I’m not interacting with majority DC spaces.
