Leftism and inclusion leaving y'all's bodies as soon as medium to high support needs autistic people and people with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, any mental illness that makes you uncomfortable start asking to be treated with humanity and decency.

Ableds get real pissy and upset when you say "only physically disabled are cripple punks." Because it "excludes" them but neuro punk and mad punk excludes the physically disabled but you don't see us bitching about it.

Its almost like this whole drama is just an excuse to silence the physically disabled wooahhh.

Is it invalid to worry about your environmental impact as a person who lives on this planet (especially when loads of other people seem to live in ignorant bliss or openly just do not care)?

Not at all.

But as disabled people* I really think we should allow ourselves those accommodations we need/that would make our lives easier.

Bottled body wash lathers easier and saves you that tiny bit of energy while you're washing up? Can't seem take care of your bar of soap so it runs out fast because it's always wet and actively makes your bathroom harder to clean? You deserve to preserve your energy and keep yourself clean. Use it.

Bottled water means your executive dysfunction won't get in the way of you getting hydrated? Means you can keep water by your bed so you don't have to endure the physical pain of walking to the kitchen? Means your OCD symptoms won't prevent you from drinking water for hours-days at a time? You deserve to drink water without stressing. Drink it.

Paper plates and plastic utensils mean you get to eat without having to worry about dishes + prevents you from having an overwhelming sink full of every dish you own covered in rotting, smelly food that may even attract bugs and cause them to breed in your sink? You deserve to eat freely and live in a clean and safe environment. Use them.

Can't wash clothes on the regular let alone cleaning rags due to energy/executive function, ability, finances, ect.? Use paper towels. For whatever reason you need them. Spills so you don't take up your only clean towel and risk it sitting + developing mold and mildew. Wiping off your counters. Dusting. Drying your dishes. Drying your hands. I literally do not give a fuck. Use them!

Use frozen vegetables that come in plastic bags and frozen meals that come in single use plastic and floss sticks and plastic cups and precut fruit and veg and whatever little necessary 'convenience' you can think of that makes your life easier. Just because you Technically, Physically can pull it off doesn't mean you should and it's important we think about the consequences of our actions even if we're the only ones really impacted by them. You're important. And for a lot of us, these things are what makes the difference between Getting Things Done At All and sitting in shame because we can't bring ourselves to make our own everything and do everything the long or right way. We put too much pressure on ourselves to make up for what abled people aren't doing themselves. If Anybody deserves a break it's us.

Don't misconstrue this as discouragement from doing what you can or whatever, but I need all of us to be a lot more realistic about what impacts our lives and which trade offs are worth it for our own sake.

It's unfortunate that we don't have options for more sustainable resources when it comes to taking care of ourselves, but it shouldn't fall on us to choose between a significantly more difficult life or feeling guilt free. Advocate where you can for better treatment of the planet, and until that can happen-- non-disabled people can and should pick up the slack for us. They literally have that option and the impact they face is an infinitesimal inconvenience compared to the real health/quality of life consequences that build up in such a severe way over time. We deserve that little bit of leeway.

*disabled includes both physical and mental ailments on this post btw

i think cripples and the insane should be allowed to do whatever we want with our bodyminds forever. it is no one's place but ours to decide what we do with our own lives and being.

The idea that disabled people have to have a billion accessibility tools(in their own home) and therapies to be independent whether they want to or not is inherently and completely part of our current ableist capitalist hell scape <3

shout out to people who struggle to communicate via text. those that have lots of trouble discerning tone from texts (me), those that type 'weird' or take a very long time to articulate via text, those that make lots of typos (also me), ppl that use aac to write texts, we all deserve patience when being communicated with. if someone you know makes a lot of typos or writes in a way that is hard for you to understand, please be patient with us. we are trying our best to communicate

Time for ebegging. hi guys I'm disabled and currently jobless, I've been scraping by without work and on savings and loans for over a year now due to my disability flaring up to where I couldn't keep my job at the time. I have been searching consistently for a job and keep getting turned down left and right. I had a car crash in March that drained my savings and took my car with it. Now, I don't have the money to pay for my base costs for this month, let alone going forward. If you could shoot me some money at my cashap or paypl I'd appreciate it greatly. If not I'd appreciate a share. Thanks.

Ask for my pypal please.

Thanks

My thoughts, as a woman of color:

For some, professional diagnoses are a privilege. For others, they aren't.

There's a lot of layers, nuances, and intersectionalities to this.

I'm about to go into the ward today but before I go

I am having so much trouble finding helpful psych ward posts, it's either venting (which is valid) or distasteful horror/dehumanization of patients posts 🥲

so reminder to everyone who may be going in soon that

🍧 you have the right to know the name, treatment purpose, and side effects of any medication the people taking care of you are giving you, if they refuse you report them as soon as you can-- be it to a staff member, to your loved ones during phone call if you are safe enough, or as soon as you get out! 🍧

Does anyone else want to see characters that are okay with and maybe even embrace being "the freak"?

Because I would love to see characters that don't 'just want to fit in' and doesn't want to be "normal"

Neuro-Alt Coining Post

Alex Here! Recently, I figured out a good way to describe my personal style (the clothes I wear/ way I present myself) ad I've decided to call it Neuro-Alt

Neuro-Alt is a very vague term, and that's on purpose! I describe it as an alternative style (differing from societal norms in clothing and presentation) that's relating to your neurodivergency. A good example would be someone wearing wildly varying colors, that many would consider mismatched, because the fabric is a safe fabric. The color didn't matter in the choice because sensory feeling is more important.

Today we wore a tank top, no bra, leggings that were patterned with skulls, and a white button up left open. It was an unconventional outfit, but I chose it based on personal style and the issues we experience with tags and seams. We also had a chew necklace on!

A lot of research papers covering Autism do mention that a lot of autistic folks have an "eccentric" style, and as an autistic system, we fully resonate with that description. That eccentricity in our style, and the fabric choices and the out-loud expression of our neurodivergencies, it's all important to us!

Some things that would probably be considered part of Neuro-Alt: a non exhaustive list

Bright and fun patterns worn because it's stimulating to look at

Wearing chewelry and stimming freely

Wearing noise cancelling earphones or shades (indoors!!)

Wearing a mismatch of clothes and colors for comfort over fashion

Traditional Alternative style influenced by neurodivergency

"This is my Special Interest/ Hyperfixation and I have to let everyone know" clothes

Tagless clothes.

Not caring about current fads and trends when deciding how to dress

This is not a (-)punk movement! However, it could be connected to Neuropunk if the person taking part is also in that scene. But to make it clear, Neuro-Alt is just a Descriptor term for a style, not a movement.
