i always see sensory avoidant autistic people talking about how their favourite foods are all plain carbs but where are the sensory seeking autistics who live on garlic and spicy foods? the ones who will eat a straight lemon and hate buttered noodles.

I need some of you to stop thinking that being visibly disabled comes with some kind of inherent privilege. I need some of you to stop thinking people are less ableist to us because they can easily tell we’re disabled. I need some of you to stop using us as a prop in your discussions about other disabilities, saying shit like “You’d never say or do X to a visibly disabled person so why-.”

I need some of you to stop telling physically disabled people that they’re the most privileged in disabled spaces. I need some of you to stop coming into discussions specifically about physical disabilities and the ableism directed towards physically disabled people and then claiming we’re excluding you because you’re not currently being centered. 

We are all disabled, all part of the same community. But that doesn’t mean you can’t be ableist towards other disabled people and I’m seeing a lot of you do it and it’s exhausting. So, take a minute, step back and think about it and stop.

Psychosis is not a character flaw. Psychosis is not an evil thing. Psychosis is no one's fault. Psychosis does not equal violence and/or abusiveness.

Psychosis comes with mental illnesses. Psychosis is a symptom of many psychiatric disorders. Psychosis is not synonymous with or limited to schizophrenia. People who experience psychosis are not bad people because they experience psychosis.

Give me more (or any??) disabled couples in media. Now. I need it. Give me couples who have different support needs, couples who are both disabled in completely different ways. Someone who’s nonverbal with an adhder. A blind person with a wheelchair user. An autistic person with someone who’s Deaf. I want disabled characters who lift each other up and trade advice and aides. I want characters who’s disabilities clash SO fucking hard but they love eachother and make it work.

Why is it when physically disabled or neurodivergent characters exist in a relationship, people assume an abled/ neurotypical person has to be apart of that equation??

so i’m a bit stuck right now.

i’m trying to create a character who has a combination of moral and harm ocd, but i’m not mentally disabled myself and i feel my research isn’t really generating anything . . . like enough for me to fully flesh out the character, i guess?

basically if anybody has any resources on creating characters with ocd/mocd/hocd or has ocd/mocd/hocd and could point me in the right direction, that’d be awesome.

any resources that talk about the combination of mocd and hocd would be nice, or if someone has that combination.

#not kotlc #ocd #characters with ocd #moral ocd #mocd #harm ocd #hocd #mental disabilities #neurodivergent #obsessive compulsive disorder #i feel like i understand ocd enough to be able to like #talk about it? but not enough to create a character with ocd #if that makes sense #also the character is for myself not for any media or anything like that #also i can’t just outright say the character has moral or harm ocd #because the story takes place in a fantasy-old-timey kinda setting and people don’t really have a concept of mental disabilities #so yeah i kinda have to show it through like actions and signs #kinda desperate because my research on mocd and hocd doesn’t feel like it’s enough so i’m hoping for something better #i'm looking to avoid cliches and stereotypes obviously but that'll only get me so far #so like other things too #like how the obsessions lead to the compulsions and other thought process things #also i'm pretty sure there's something about how “intrusive thoughts” isn't the correct term #but i really don't understand why so there's that too that i need to educate myself on

Having severe anxiety is always being at 99% at all times. Doesn’t matter how the day is going, how content you feel, there’s always something in the back of your mind making you feel anxious. And you can never be truly relaxed.

That’s me. Every single day. Yes, it’s exhausting. I was also born with it. The earliest memory I have of anxiety is panicking as a little child because I saw these squiggly, colorful lines in my eyes at night that wouldn’t go away, and everywhere I looked, they were there. And they were moving like static. Damn near killed me, isttgs.

Hi, I'm looking for the ptsd flag with the symbol and I can't found it. do you have it?

Hi! It seems that the original designer of this ptsd flag has either had their account deleted by Tumblr or deleted their account. It was @your-fave-has-ptsd. If anyone knows about what appened to them or if they have a new blog, please tell me so I can credit them! /genuine

Fortunately, I've kept the flags on my computer, so here they are! I've also done a png version of the symbol. However, the quality of it isn't great because I've done this edit a long time ago. I don't have the spoons to re-edit it. So, if someone who sees this posts has the spoons to do a better quality version, it would be very cool! :)

PS: have a nice pride month! <3

[IMAGE ID: A flag with five horizontal stripes of the same size. Their colors are, from top to bottom, red, light red, cyan, blue and dark blue. In the middle of the flag there is a simplistic white symbol of an open hand with a young plant. END ID]

Able-bodied: someone who isn’t physically disabled.

Able-minded: someone who isn’t mentally disabled.

Neurotypical: someone who isn’t neurodivergent

They all mean different things. There are huge overlaps but you also need to keep in mind they are different things. For example, someone can easily be physically disabled but able-minded. Someone can be neurodivergent but able-bodied. Some people are all three. Keep it in mind.

Pills

[pt: Pills]

tw, coercion, mental hospital

i had to take two pills every day in the hospital.

one was meant to stop my period, it made it go in forever. i couldn't get to see a doctor for help, i was stuck with cramps and blood the whole 14 days i was there.

the second was an antidepressant. an SSRI, they never told me what it was called. i didn't have depression, they just gave it to me. it made me sick. i haven't felt well since they made me take them.

in the "hold" they got tired of me acting up they told me i had to take a little white pill or they would take all my things. i was so angry with the stupid nurse i threw a juice box at her. she yelled at me for being immature i think, but isn't that a normal response to being coerced into taking a little white pill?

#i wish i knew what that pill was #it was a sedative #thats all they told me #ive tried to find it in my records but i onky have some of them #disability #nuero punk #autism #autipunk #mental disabilities #auti punk #nueropunk #mad punk #mad pride #tw mental hospital

Parents need to learn that on public transportations and in public places where it is not easy to keep a distance or move further away, it is nothing personal when some of us have to change seats or put on noise cancelling headphones.

We get that children throw tantrums and babies cry. We understand that tiny humans make a lot of noises. But we still need to protect ourselves and our personal spaces when we are neurodivergent or mentally ill, when the loud shrill sounds and screams will trigger headaches, flashbacks, severe sensory overloads, or overwhelm us to the point of a breakdown.
