Hi. I actually don't know how to start. I have autism, ADHD and polymicrogyria and I didn't know about it for my entire life. I was diagnosed like 2 years ago and I still feel weird with it. I mean, whenever I say something about it people are like "but you're so smart!" or "you don't look disabled!". And the problem is that I really don't FEEL disabled. I can't convince myself that my disabilities are valid enough. I feel like I've somehow tricked everyone into believing that I really have these disorders and it makes me feel SO shitty about myself. No one believes me and I don't think I believe myself either. Do you have any tips to make it right? I mean, there's a whole life ahead, I don't want to spend it on doubting myself and feeling guilty
(and also sorry for my bad english, i'm not a native speaker)
Have a nice day!
Faking something is a conscious decision. If you were actually faking any of your struggles, you wouldn't be agonizing about it, you'd be doing it consciously and deliberately. What you're dealing with is imposter syndrome and internalized ableism, which are very common struggles in the disabled community. And there is no simple quick fix, but step one is internalizing that faking isn't something you can do by accident and that struggling isn't something people do on purpose ❤️

Slip stitch and ladder stitch are not the same and they are not interchangeable.

The key to understanding Leonard McCoy is that he only ACTS like he hates everyone and everything. Underneath that sarcastic abrasive middle aged man is a fundamental love for living creatures, desire to help others so strong that he made a career of it and a respect for the simple joys, which occasionally show their face when he's turning on the southern charm for a woman or offering to sacrifice himself to save a patient. I mean, you'd probably be a bit grumpy too if your marriage ended and you were stuck in space (a place you hate) trying to stop your best friends getting themselves killed when you could be spending time with your daughter. He's not surly and outspoken because he doesn't care, he's surly and outspoken precisely because he cares so much and yes, that has got him hurt before and probably will again but dammit, he's not going to let that stop him being what he is - an old country doctor who will do anything he can to help people. I love his sardonic witty banter as much as anyone but I think the real reason we take him into our hearts is because despite his complaining he's arguably the most down-to-earth, no-nonsense character in TOS and deep down we all admire his simple selfless dedication to caring for others. Never change, Bones.

I looked in my drafts and was met with "I need someone to crack my spine like a glowstick". I don't remember saying it but I stand by it

Imagine if you had a neighbour who keeps performing songs from Phantom of the Opera in his apartment every night, by himself but accompanied by a parrot, which he has taught to sing Christine's part. Admittedly it's kind of obnoxious but you are far too baffled to even be properly annoyed. And also you don't want to confront someone with that kind of power and determination. So every once in a while you just hear this guy dramatically bellow
"SING FOR ME!"
[ASTONISHINGLY HIGH-PITCHED PARROT SHRIEK]
