something that isn’t talked about enough with chronic illness is knowing that going to your appointments and doing your exercises and all that will help but being in too much pain or too fatigued to go, so your just stuck in this constant cycle of knowing what you need to do to get better but not being able to do it because your sick

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they complain about their disability

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they need to slow down for them

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until their mobility aids are loud

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until their mobility aids fall

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they cancel plans due to their disability

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they need to hold something for them

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they need to open a door for them

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until they can't go somewhere because it's not accessible

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until their disability is inconvenient

Everyone is fine with having a disabled friend until their disability impacts them.

romanticise your body

your trans body

your disabled body

your fat body

everything about yourself that you've been told to hate

love yourself in spite of it

the way you exist is amazing

"physical" effects from "mental" disorders aren't just a side effect of the condition. they are an inherent part of the condition, and they have real rammifications for things like your heart or gut health, for your sleep and metabolic system, for everything in your body. your brain and nerves are all part of your body. the fatigue matters. the high blood pressure matters. the fainting matters. the lack of, or excessive, appetite matters.

all of it matters, all of it disables you, and all of it needs recognition and caring to. don't let weird gatekeeping online or ableism from society at large stop you from being kind to yourself. be disabled, be neurodivergent, be crippled, be a spoonie, and do it unashamedly. all chronic illnesses and neurological conditions matter. you got this and i'm with you.

sincerely, a disabled person whose "mental" conditions cripple them as much as their "physical" ones.

i’m thinking about sick4sick friendships i’m thinking about keeping spare meds in my bag to share with my buddies. my partner offering me their cane when i can’t smuggle my own out the house.

im thinking about sick4sick with strangers. sharing advice. the grin when you have the same canes. complimenting cool mobility aids.

i’m thinking about hand me down knee braces and joint straps my dad gives to me. passing them on like heirlooms.

im thinking about the solidarity in pain and how beautiful it can be

edit: hello everyone enjoying this post i made a longer version on my blog if u wanna check it out :o)

Sometimes I really wish that it was cripplecore or cripple-other-suffix because SO MANY PEOPLE are getting confused by the "punk" part in cripplepunk

It's not an aesthetic.

Battlejackets and mohawks and spiked collars with the cuffs, it doesn't mean anything. It's just windowdressing.

You're a cripple and you're a punk. And that's cool. But you can wear business suits 24/7, or only white knee length flowy dresses, or dungarees and nothing else, and still be cripplepunk. As much as anyone else in a battlejacket and studs.

The thing that makes you cripplepunk is your crippled body, regardless of what you dress in.

It doesn't matter if you're into strictly runway fashion only, or you're in a pair of jeans you haven't taken off in 6 months, a step is still going to stop you getting into a place if you're in a wheelchair.

Websites still won't accomodate your sight loss, even if you and your service dog have matching dyed hair.

Medical professionals aren't going to believe you about the amount of pain you're in regardless of what you wear (yeah, that 'dressed like a professional at the doctor's office' thing wears off fast if you keep going back there)

Cripplepunk didn't need to be carved out of the disabled community because it looked and sounded cool.

We were being talked over, online and in our real lives, expected to be quiet and pleasant.

We needed a space, so Ty DIY'd one for themselves, and for all of us.

Worried about not looking punk enough for cripplepunk?

Can't make that intricate battlejacket because you haven't got the energy or dexterity or steady hands or means?

Can't afford a pack of studs and a tool off eBay to stud your own clothes?

Can't make your own but can't afford store-bought?

Doesn't matter.

Live unashamed of your disability, live in plain sight with your disability, be angry and loud and rude and disabled because we don't need to be palatable to the physically abled.

Cripplepunk is not about being seen as punk, it's about being seen as a cripple.

[crowpunkcognitivedecline]

this is a cripple punk post [also focusing on all kinds of HSN disabled folks]; ableds must tag reblogs with #i’m able bodied

for the record

i generally shower exactly once a week & wash my hair the same day

sometimes i can’t change undergarments for a few days, sometimes i change them multiple times a day

i rely on several adaptive tools to shower, period

i do need to shave/trim pubic and body hair for my hygiene, and can’t keep clean otherwise

in winter, i often can’t wash my hands unless i have lotion with me or they’ll crack painfully

i change clothes once or twice a day to make up for most of this the best i can

i’m saying this because all of those things are very common issues for many disabled people (especially high-support ones), and because i feel like if i’m going to talk about destigmatizing hygiene struggles, i should at least be open about my own.

hygiene is very difficult and energy consuming. it involves a lot energy that many of us can’t access.

not being able to maintain one’s personal hygiene doesn’t make anyone selfish, disgusting, or undeserving.

if you can’t be kind and supportive and not say “ew” when you hear about one of the most common impairments moderately to severely disabled people experience, you don’t support disabled people. if you don’t support disabled people who smell bad or have dandruff or cracked hands or un-exfoliated skin, you don’t support disabled people.

yes, even if you have sensory issues. yes, even if you’re germaphobic. your disabilities are not an excuse to be ableist to others. find a way to be kind anyway.

#DO NOT TAG AS “C SLUR/TW SLUR” OR “UNHYGIENIC” #use “cw hygiene issues” or don’t reblog. consider how your phrasing impacts those who struggle with their hygiene #cw hygiene issues #hygiene #cripple punk #cpunk #crippunk #cripplepunk #cognitive decline #neurocognitive disability #neurological disability #crazy cripple pride #mad crip pride #mad pride #madpunk #neuropunk #ableism

recently saw post that goes like

''if you are young and going out in public with a mobility aid there probably will be an ''able-bodied'' kid watching you and feeling less alone. and just maybe they might try taking their aid outside, someday.''

(i copied it some parts)

dont wanna derail a post from physically disabled, (even tho i am one i think)

and god i wanna be that, i wanna be that person, that young person who tics and stims in public, who uses disability aids (if thats the correct word!) in public, such as earplugs (god bless that woman i saw in bus that also had the same earplugs that me!), noise cancellation headphones, stim toys, chewelry, etc etc, be ''weird'' in public.

i wanna be that teen that lets other kids know that its okay to be like that, we are different, but everyone is different somehow you know? i wanna let little kids who are also like me, kids who may be different for society that its fucking okay!! for god's sake you dont have to adapt to some perfectionist idea for people, and i understand not being able to.

bc of ableist parents, friends, family, etc, bc of own internalized ableism... but i know someday you will be free, you will tic and stim, and be weird, and be a ''freak''! reclaim the word! and you will shout to the top of the world, to all the people, that you Are Free.! and no one will take that away from you. no one can if you dont let them

i wanna be that teen, i wanna be that kid that is an inspiration for others, not in a ''inspiration porn'' for abled and neurotypical people, but for people like me.. for people who are similar to me, who just know understand how shitty and lovely the world can be, who are learning but dont forget that you will never be alone,

i spent most of the 10 years with my tourettes feeling that i was Alone in this world.

but i am not.

people can be so kind to eachother, people can love so much, and there will be people who will not have the same condition as you, but will support you no matter what, doesnt matter if its online. You have people who care!!!

the struggle of being physically disabled and psychotic. am I really experiencing this or is it a delusion? people tell me there's nothing wrong with me and I rely on others for an accurate depiction of reality. then why do I hurt so bad?

hey. I dunno who needs to hear this today. but

you are not wrong for getting better. You are not betraying our community. you are not a bad person for trying to prevent others from falling into it. you are not hurting anyone by easing the pain for yourself.

disability is a hard, hard thing. being able to climb up to feeling better, tooth and nail, is an incredibly difficult process. but abled people tend to forget that there is a community here. there is a home to this pain. it has shaped us and our lives. our identities might be forever impacted by that.

you are not forgoing that by healing. it’s okay to get better. it’s okay to work towards being better. you are not betraying, forgetting, or abandoning us. it can be hard not to target yourself or others about this ‘crime,’ but I want you to know that it’s okay.

I believe in you.

it’s weird how if the stuff my chronic illnesses causes happened to an abled person, they’d call an ambulance but i’m just expected to get up and carry on with my day

every single time i see someone after not seeing them for awhile, regardless of how well i know them, they ask me about my mobility aids and my health. i've gotten used to scripting a response, "the doctors don't know", "i've tried this and this and this", "no, i can't walk unassisted", etc.

the fact that it's seen as rude for a disabled person to tell nondisabled people to mind their own damn business when it comes to our health and disability is ridiculous

saying it one more time

cripple punk is created by a physically disabled person who is no longer with us and has stated it is SOLELY FOR the physically disabled. thats not excluding people who are both mentally and physically disabled. it is not for anyone who is able bodied. if you find you are physically hindered because of conditions congrats youre physically disabled (if you wish to call yourself such).

people who are just neurodivergent and able bodied, its not that youre not welcome its that this movement literally was never made with you in mind. its always been for people who are physically disabled

cripple is literally a slur used against people with physical disabilities, it does not and never has applied to able bodied people regardless of whats going on in your head. the fact that a slur is used in the name of our community should be enough to tell people who's in it but no

it has to be recited as we're talked over by people trying to slap the community label on themselves because "im disabled too"

the entire disability community is for you, this little part of it is for us

this "mental exclusionary radical disableds" thing is bullshit

we shouldn't have to repeat ourselves let alone say this in the first place

omg im tired

addicts are included in neurodivergent and disabled pride. our experiences matter. we matter. our voices deserve to be heard, and our lives deserve to be celebrated. that is the crux of pride - it's not about encouraging harmful behavior, it's about encouraging disenfranchised, marginalized people to love themselves no matter their story. and that has to include addicts.

i really hate when we r like can we please stop the trend of disabled characters magically being Cured as this like amazing plot point or ending n people are like “SO YOU WANT THEM TO STAY SUFFERING?” no i just want some accurate representation without it feeling like my disability is being rubbed in my face because a cure doesn’t fucking exist irl. “it’s fantasy” it’s inspiration porn u fuckin weirdos.

why do u hate disabled people being disabled why do you feel like we all need curing?? you know we can be happy right? we can live full, joyous lives! disabled characters don’t need to me cured to be fulfilled!!!!!

some of u need to just admit that seeing disabled characters Be Disabled scares u. like u need to see us cured and able bodied miraculously because u don’t like the actual truth about being disabled because u know u can become One of Us at any moment.

stop trying to make us palatable for your own comfort u weirdos !!! i fucking hate The Disabled Character is cured and it’s a miracle!!!

it is literally just..inspiration porn idk how people can’t see that. it’s so fucking blatant
