vent (ugh) looking for maybe shared experiences or reassurance that this isnt my fault? cw swearing
this past month or so has been hell for me. ive begun involuntary unmasking (after involuntary masking) and it feels like my world is caving in. i also have horrible “emotional permanence” (for lack of a better term) so feeling like shit for a few mins is the same as feeling like shit all day, and i essentially forget any other feelings i had during the other parts of my day. im completely touch avoidant except in certain circumstances, i feel burnt out despite only having 2 classes, i feel scared and trapped even though nothing is trapping me. my insecure nature from middle school is coming back. im socially awkward and anxious again. i cant tell tone or read body language for the life of me. i dont know how to make my voice sound manly again. im barely passing as male. im so fucking lost and afraid.
(not to mention i can’t exercise which was my main way of relaxing due to my annoying ass hip and knee joints)

Results of the autism test I took in English today for funsies, that my bestie @rain-mcgay sent ti me as I took it on their phone for search history reasons
Tumblr media
The depression one would be higher but I put neutral on all the emotion ones, because, to quote me ‘that’s a whole bag of cats that I don’t want to untangle’
If these quizzes are to be beloved (and bear in mind that I am still very sceptical of online neurodivergency quizzes, even though every neurodivergent person I’ve ever met INCLUDING MY AUDHD BROTHER has said that I’m probably autistic, and a large amount have said adhd also) then I’m experiencing high symptoms of audhd. Which is swanky

Surprise, surprise, they’re trying to dismiss my disability as “anxiety.” Like bitch, I’m anxious BECAUSE of my physical symptoms, not the other way around. And yes, I know that mental health correlates to your physical health, but if that’s the case FOR ME, why would my physical symptoms only start AFTER I started getting mentally BETTER?? It just doesn’t line up, and if you fucking listened, you would know that.

Is it a neurodivergent thing to have a huge collection of reaction images “just in case” so you can fake being able to communicate properly orrrrrrrrr
Tumblr media
(that’s my collection! Ace attorney themed, per hyperfixation)
ID: a screenshot of an image folder, called “look at my lawyer dawwwwg, I’m going to jail” with 75 images in it. The cover picture is a picture of various ace attorney characters with the caption “I am having homosexual thoughts.” End ID.

Someday I’ll get over my weird panic thing about doctors and needles and get blood work done and a doctor will get my results back and be like “holy fuck you’ve been living with untreated _____ and ______ this whole time how are you just now getting diagnosed are you okay??” and I’ll be like noo lol and then everyone that’s ever called me lazy will be suddenly struck by an all-consuming wave of guilt and shame <3 yay

I finally got my custom knee braces!!!! I’m so fucking happy I just wish it didn’t take this long to get it authorized. I’m so lucky too that my insurance covered them because otherwise they’d be ridiculously expensive. They were 3D printed to match my legs so they fit so perfectly. Getting used to them is hard because they make my leg muscles have to actually work rather than just going along for the ride and my joints don’t hurt as fast during the day. Walking is so much better now. I’m so fucking happy omg. I’m so thankful to my sports medicine doctor who wrote the letter that was hugely responsible for getting my insurance to approve them.
Now I need custom fit braces because of the significant size discrepancy between my thighs and my calves. Every pre fabricated brace I have tried or wanted to try didn’t fit me in so many ways. Either they didn’t go big enough to fit my thighs or they fit my thighs but were too big for my calves or they wouldn’t sit right on my knees or so much else. But I finally have amazing braces that fit perfectly and actually stay on my legs and for that I am so thankful.
These braces have made such a big difference in how active I’m able to be and how I’m able to do physical therapy. With these braces I can actually get my knees and legs closer to where they need to be without the same kind of pain and instability that I have without them.
Now I’m working on getting a disabled parking placard because while walking is easier it’s still hard because of my joints and fatigue and also because of my POTS and just everything else that’s wrong in my body. So I have an appointment with my gp to work on the paperwork and then I’ll go from there to apply. I’m so happy that I’m finally able to get even just some of the help I need and for that I am so grateful.

Me: *explains to doctor that my heart will sometimes start racing for absolutely no reason when I'm otherwise feeling completely calm*
My doctor: this sounds like anxiety. Go talk to your therapist.
Me: *knowing it's not anxiety* *talks to my therapist*
Therapist: That's not anxiety. You should talk to your doctor.
Me: *tells doctor what my therapist said*
Doctor: this sounds like anxiety. You should talk to your therapist.
Me: 😑

building up the courage to wear my “please dont touch me” and “please ask before you touch me” pins to school tomorrow. theyre pinned on my backpack straps so theyll face whoever is interacting with me…
cw intrusive thoughts , assault
…however i have reoccurring intrusive thoughts that someone will take the pins as a challenge and in return touch or assault me. and im horrified about it. i take public transport twice a day and have extreme fear of people, mainly strangers, men, and outgoing folks in general.
can i maybe get some encouragement or kind words or anything? /nf of course

I've been going to school this week, my pain has been a bit worse, but nothing serious. Then two days ago I managed to fall with my bike and since then I feel a lot more unstable physically, especially my ankles and knees :/ The fall wasn't serious either, but today I woke up in a bad flare that I haven't had in months 🫠🫠🫠 Had to stay home because I knew if I kept pushing through the pain flare, I might injure myself further. But I still feel like a failure for essentially "skipping" today because of my health 🥹
