hey if your period literally fucking cripples you every month but everyone keeps telling you that's normal and you're just overreacting
consider that it might not be normal
I've been on the depo shot contraceptive for several years longer than you're supposed to because it manages these symptoms, I had to go off it for a while by doctor suggestion to reassess if I still need it, my period has been back for three days and I'm seeing my doctor TODAY to get back on depo because I just can't handle the physical and emotional toll it takes on me
this shit is genuinely crippling, I cannot function, don't let people convince you that this is normal, listen to your body and get help

i just learned premenstrual exacerbation (PME) is a thing which is like. when your menstrual cycle makes pre-existing conditions worse (especially mental health conditions). i'm starting to wonder if i have either this, PMS, or PMDD... or both PMS or PMDD and PME. (yes ik PMS isn't the same as PMDD, i just dont track my symptoms well enough to know if it's just regular ol' PMS or not)... time to download a period tracker

Hi there, Neurodivergent! I’m Rhysand (pronounced Reese-Sund), also called Rhys (pronounced Reese). I’m a Queer, Nonhuman, and Reality Shifting Neurodivergent. This blog was made for my Neurodivergency, my special interests and my hyperfixations, and everything else to do with my neurodivergency. There will be positive posts, silly posts, relatable posts, negative posts, and more here.
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
About Me
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
Neurodivergency
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
I’m undiagnosed AuDHD (Autism + ADHD), ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder), APD (Auditory Processing Disorder), SPD (Sensory Processing Disorder), and Pure O OCD (“Purely Obsessional” Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), medically recognized (but undiagnosed) PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and SAD (Social Anxiety Disorder), and diagnosed MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) and GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder).
I’m also undiagnosed BDD (Body Dysmorphic Disorder), Trichotillomania (hair pulling/picking disorder), Excoriation Disorder (skin picking disorder), and Misophonia.
I’m undiagnosed PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) and/or PME (Premenstrual Exacerbation), and hopefully soon can be diagnosed.
Questioning POTS, HSD or EDS/hEDS. (NOT claiming to have this or self-diagnosed as of yet, I am still doing research, but I do have lots of signs that point to these things.)
My special interests are Wings Of Fire, Harry Potter, Dragons in general, and Neurodivergency.
I have no current hyperfixations that I’ve noticed, and I’m extremely low on dopamine because of it. /silly /srs
I have verbal shutdowns, shutdowns and meltdowns in general, I mask without realizing it a lot, and I’m usually in burnout. I also have severe imposter syndrome that I deal with literally 24/7.
Tone tags are very much appreciated when talking to me, so PLEASE use them! If you aren’t sure what they are or what they mean or how to use them, please just ask and I will happily let you know! <3 /gen
I used to cope by using maladaptive daydreaming, so I relate a lot to maladaptive daydreamers a lot.
I struggle with violent and horrible intrusive thoughts (due to my OCD) and have for years now since I was a kid.
I have lots of trauma, both remembered and not remembered, so beware.
I’m a SI and SH survivor and in recovery.
Little banner my friend ( @/lavenderkittycat ) made me:

Queerness
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
I’m a bit of a gender hoarder, but I don’t use that as my label. I usually call myself a Genderfluid Genderflux Non-Binary TransGuy, but just think of me as a mash of all the genders I experience.
Currently, I don’t know what gender I’m feeling.
I use He/It/They/Xe/Ne/Ze/Love/Wolf/Star/Moon/🌙/Sun pronouns + any/all neopronouns, nounself pronouns, xenopronouns, and emojiself pronouns. Basically, everything EXCEPT She/Her.
I’m AroAce, Aromantic and Myrsexual (Neuroasexual, Nebulasexual, Dreadsexual, Acorsexual, Apothisexual, Falsaesthsexual, Bellussexual, Rosesexual, Requiesexual, Placiosexual, and Merosexual), and I’m Homoalterous, Omniqueerplatonic, Panexteramo, Pansensual, and Panaesthetic.
I’m Ambiamorous with no preference.
I’m also a Lesboy and T4T-leaning.
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
Nonhumanity
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
I’m a Polytherian, Otherkin, Otherfix, Otherhearted, and a Fictionflicker.
I have a Vancouver Coastal Sea Wolf Theriotype, a Red Fox Theriotype, Nurse Shark Theriotype, Snow Leopard, Norwegian Forest Cat, Maned Wolf Theriotype, Coyote Theriotype, Side-Striped Jackal Theriotype, and a Canada Lynx Theriotype.
I have a Fiction Kintype (Dark Fey, Forest Type, from the Maleficent movies), a Dragon Kintype (SeaWing/SilkWing hybrid), another Dragon Kintype (Night-Light Fury hybrid), Angel, Silver Fox, Avian (humanoid with wings and tail) and a Raccoon.
I’ve had Fictotypes for Hylian, an OC species of mine, Orphinki, Sable, and Owl (all).
I have a Whale Shark Hearttype.
I’m transspecies, humanfluid, pseudohuman, sunnonhuman, and voidpunk.
I fluctuate between Nonhuman and Human, although am always on some level both, just other times are stronger for one and the other not so much, but I refer to myself overall as just Nonhuman. My soul is a combination of human and nonhuman.
All of my Nonhumanity is due to a combination of Past Lives, Fate, and Neurodivergency. I believe I was all my ‘types in past lives, and only found out about it in this life due to my neurodivergency.
I’ve been awakened for only a few months now. I want gear, but I don’t have any right now. I’m making my own wings currently, and I hope to have them done soon if my ADHD brain will allow me.

Reality Shifting
♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩♫♩
I’m a Reality Shifter, which means I move my consciousness from one reality into another one.
I do believe in the multiverse.
I’ve known about reality shifting since around 2020 or 2021, and started my journey then.
I spent a lot of my time trying to shift, even though I didn’t have the proper mindset or knowledge to shift.
I took a huge break after trying for only a month or so, only trying to shift occasionally.
I’ve come back to it in 2024 after finding shiftblr, having more knowledge, a better mindset, and more motivation.
I’ve shifted once to a parallel reality, where I relived/redid a day.
I have way too many DRs to count, and I’m thinking about permashifting to my Better CR DR.

I’m taken by my amazing boyfriend ( @itssiryapsalot ), and he’s also neurodivergent, nonhuman, queer, and a reality shifter! (And a lot more, too!)
I’m Agnostic, slightly spiritual, and very respectful and interested in others’ religions. (Although, I do have negative experiences/trauma with Christian and God/Jesus Christ focused religions, and if your blog is heavy with that, I would prefer if you didn’t interact with me! Thank you!)
I’m celiac, have a dairy intolerance, have a dust allergy, pollen allergies, and probably some more that we aren’t too sure about yet! Basically, my nose is constantly stuffy and I have to be careful what I eat.
I have a few hobbies that I’m learning to be involved in again, because they make me happy and I’ve kinda lost touch with them. They are: drawing, writing, painting, coloring, reading, and more.
I stand with Palestine.
I’m pro non-offending p@raph!les and etc., who are in recovery/getting help.
I love receiving and answering asks, so always feel free/unafraid to send one in for infodumping, questions, or anything else! <3 /gen /pos

Quote
Almost every month, for the last 7 years-a giant rain cloud casts a dark shadow on my reality
Almost every month, for the last 7 years-a giant rain cloud casts a dark shadow on my reality. The way that I perceive this world, and react to this world is then filtered through it.
And yet each month, nothing about my reality really changes, just my perception of it.
I know now that what I was experiencing all this time was called PMDD. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Essentially, 10 days before my period I deal with a depressive episode, ruminating thoughts, and more.
It’s rough.
Before I moved to NYC, I remember convincing myself that my new home was the solution to all my sadness. I’d eventually find myself crying on the Q train more times that I can count.
My (the) mind is like a home - my only constant. I take it everywhere I go, and it’s the longest place I’ll live in, in this lifetime - and it’s through this home that I experience the world.
And thoughts can be like people showing up to my house like uninvited guests. Except they don’t even knock, they just barge in. And month after month, after month -- turned years, I was letting people walk in.
Letting them tell me that the “people around will leave me,” to look for clues and proof in my history that fact, telling me that I’m not good enough.
Telling me that who I am, as I am, is not enough. I let them walk all over me.
But, we are not our thoughts.
I began to build my own meditation practice, and eventually joined a meditation teacher training to force myself. The FIRST thing it took away from me immediately was my ability to say that I had nothing left to TRY. That is always the case. Perspective is plentiful, and it is everything.
Through that chapter of effort, it gave me 1) the power of personal responsibility. 2) Hope, and the ability to reflect on the belief that change is possible. 3) Possibility.
Those thoughts still come walking in. In fact, I’m in that 10 day period. But today, they’re coming through my door a little less sure of themselves. But now I have the power, awareness, and practice to address them in a way that works better for me. I can look past them, or inside of their eyes, and see that they just needed a little bit more love.
We all deserve to have a safe space in our minds. So try, as much as you need to try. Somewhere. Somehow. It all counts for something, and builds up along the way.
You wouldn’t expect a flower to bloom in one day, so don’t pull up a chair in frustration waiting on yours. Water it, care for it, live your life, when you drop the ball, wake up the next day and pick it up. It’s all about the return. Never let anything or anyone take your hope away.

“The only sane response to an emergency is activism.”
Get your free copy of “Psychology of Apocalypse” for a deep understanding of the crises of environment & fascism & the necessary heroes arising now.
The book, "Psychology of Apocalypse: Ecopsychology, Activism, and the Prenatal Roots of Humanicide" by Michael Adzema is available for free from August 26th - 30th, 2024, and again from December 2nd - 6th, 2024.
Adzema's work explores the impact of prenatal experiences on human behavior, societal dynamics, and environmental attitudes. It delves into the concept of prenatal suffering as the foundational cause of human evil, shaping emotions and behaviors, and contributing to societal issues such as violence, bigotry, and pollution
Additionally, the book emphasizes the importance of activism and heroism in addressing environmental threats and societal challenges, offering a thought-provoking exploration of early experiences' profound influence on humanity.
It addresses the urgent call to action to avert potential global devastation due to nuclear threats and environmental degradation.
Additionally, it delves into themes of violence, sacrifice, and heroism, emphasizing the need for emotionally connected heroism in facing challenges.
In Adzema's words, "The only sane response to an emergency is activism … and the sanest response is heroism. Not sainthood. Not enlightenment. Not social status. Not corporate success. Not any kind of material achievement.
"No. the only sane response to a situation where we stand in front of a house on fire is to pick up a bucket. Anything else is numb, unfeeling, quite dissociated, and selfish.
"And when one is inside that house, the only response is to get out the fire extinguisher, seek to help the ones inside to get free from the flames, to minimize the suffering of others and to save others and oneself, regardless if one succeeds or not.
"The only sane response is thus heroism."
Get your free copy for a deep understanding of what is going on and what you, and we together, can do about it.
Not only to survive, but to become the evolved humans the Earth and its planetmates require of us in this moment.

ppl with premenstrual disorders need paid sick leave during the luteal phase. awareness won't save me if this illness keeps me stuck in poverty bc employers will always penalize me for being physically unable to work for a few days per month. literally the only accommodation that would make a real difference for me is paid premenstrual leave. this would also be suicide prevention for a lot of ppl with these conditions. deadass

One moment you’re soaring on the wings of creativity, deeply invested in a scene, and the next, your body is like, Nope, we’re crying now—
—over a commercial, or because that one chord progression in a song felt too powerful. Chronic hormonal sensitivity can feel like you’re walking on eggshells with your own body, never quite knowing what each day will bring. It’s not just the mood swings; it’s the physical toll. You might be deep into editing or brainstorming, but a sudden hot flash or muscle ache pulls you out of focus. You lose time just managing the physical symptoms.
That unpredictability can disrupt the delicate balance between creativity and productivity. Writing requires a certain level of emotional engagement, but when you’re extra sensitive to emotional triggers, you might find yourself overwhelmed by your own stories. A scene that’s meant to be joyful might hit you harder than expected, or a conflict between characters could amplify your own stress.
Then there’s the mental fog that sometimes comes with hormonal fluctuations. You want to work on that intricate plot twist or complex character development, but your brain feels like it’s swimming in molasses. All of it combines to create this tricky dance between your body, your emotions, and the very stories you’re trying to tell.
But here’s the thing: when you manage to harness those heightened emotions, it can bring a richness to your writing that might not have been there otherwise.
We often talk about hormones in terms of balance, but the truth is, they’re never static. They’re in constant flux, shifting in response to everything from stress to sleep. So when we talk about ‘hormonal balance,’ it’s not really about perfect stillness—because that doesn’t exist—it’s more about finding a sense of stability amid the chaos. And for those of us whose bodies seem allergic to their own fluctuations, that idea of balance can feel like chasing a mirage, always just out of reach.

While I was researching PMDD I came across this disorder called PME, which stands for premenstrual exacerbation. It is a premenstrual disorder that coexists with another psychiatric disorder, with symptoms worsening in the premenstrual phase. I found it really interesting! Here's an article with more information:

My eyes move in and out of focus, I switch back and forth from being present to getting lost in the dialogue in my mind. Why I’d ever choose to be more present there, than right here, is beyond me. Smiling kids, someone’s favorite song playing softly in the background on the coffee shop’s playlist. Sometimes, I feel on days like today I’m seeing the world through eyes that are not my own. If you’re not careful, you can begin to believe the veil.
Today, I’ll transmute the experience into art, into a journal entry that takes a positive spin, into sending love outward to a friend. Knowing what this particular realm feels like, is one of the cards I have been dealt. I wouldn’t be the same without having experienced it though, and I (you) offer something beautiful to the world — perspective, empathy, and all of your unique lessons. This is our catalyst for growth, breathe into it.
