Fuck PTSD. Fuck people who don’t understand emotional and verbal abuse is extremely traumatic. Fuck people who bully, which is emotional & verbal abuse.

Therapy session was exactly what I needed. Even my therapist said she could tell just dumping it all allowed me to get the weight off. I feel so much lighter

Therapy tomorrow bc I gotta stop this spiral before it gets worse. I’ve tried everything on my own & it ain’t doing shit. It’s been 2.5 years since my last session. Remember, healing is not linear!

Well, the rule of threes goes for trauma triggers too I suppose. Had my third one today & I made a phone call to my therapist. I’ve been doing great without her for over 2 years but I know a spiral when I see one…

Let’s talk postpartum depression: Misinfo about this is rampant which leads to people who are postpartum to not be aware of these things that can happen. PPD can continue for almost a year after giving birth, sometimes longer. It’s not just a couple weeks post like most think

No, I’m not being standoffish or ‘closed off’ because I have my arms crossed I literally have no clue what to do with my hands & the most comfortable thing to do with them, is cross them Or you can have awkward, fidgety me which bothers people too

Things I have to warn people abt ahead of time so they don’t label me ‘rude’: Sometimes I need to close my eyes to calm down & let my brain process. Less input means my brain can click into gear Even with a warning, people do not like it…at all but they can’t have both things

If someone tells you you’re ableist, your response should never be ‘well I’m disabled too’ bc unless you are working on dismantling your ableism the yes, you are ableist AND disabled

Met Andy Grammer. He signed my book (where I talk about one of his albums & had some lyrics included)

For everyone out there who deals with addiction of any kind, I see you. I know it feels incredibly lonely but there are so many of us, in all stages. Share whatever you would like no matter where you are… I’m 2775 days sober from alcohol

If you strive to be anti-racist you must read “K*lling the Black Body” By Dorothy Roberts So many emotions. I’m not surprised, not shocked. It’s typical white people behavior. But for someone who’s doing the work & talking the talk…this was vile, truly vile

Please help Mae with this emergency move! Please help her avoid being unhoused! Be a blessing to Mae the way she is for others. If you can't help, please share! 💖🌺❤️🌸✨🍓

Ugggggggh. I wanna throw an adult tantrum. The methotrexate which is working for my rheumatoid arthritis pain is making me bruise way too easily & now my gums are bothering me. I DONT WANNA CHANGE MEDS 😭 it’s a whole fucking thing I just don’t wanna deal with. IYKYK

Rent and credit card bill paid. Rex’s snipping is scheduled. Soon as I can find $500-600 for August’s more minor bills, I can get back to working to free two ppl (66 and 22) Ive been contacted to help free from #ICE custody. If these folks are ok living off the generosity of others, I will be too.

Random questions I ask myself… Why on earth would a manufacture of dry erase markers make them look like permanent markers?!?!? Isn’t this ASKING for bad shit to happen like grabbing the wrong one & writing on a white board with a permanent marker??? Why don’t they ask themselves these questions!

I know yall won’t but you should learn what a “white savior” actually is bc yall use it wrong constantly. Conflating “ally” with “savior” bc truthfully, yall don’t know how to do any of it

Am I critical of my fellow HCW? Yes But does that mean I won’t stand up for them when it’s necessary? No Calling pharmacists ‘harmacists’ is disgusting. I sure don’t agree w/plenty of things my colleagues do but the majority do give a shit & to call us this is messed up

I need autistic people to make school supply lists bc…1 pack means too many things Tell me what you want specifically! I shouldn’t have a million questions after reviewing the school supply list! (& I am aware of what I can do…)

Why on earth would I want to be around people that actively hate 90% of my friend group? The way many talk abt trans or disabled or Black/brown or queer people. Question: don’t you think it’s appropriate for me to be angry when yall talk so horribly about people I love?

New profile picture for those who get a bit freaked by changing pics (I know I do!)

It was such a privilege to speak to pharmacists who work in the Indian Health Services & prison system today. I presented abt SI & NSSI (see below) identifying differences & how we can help patients. I cannot express how honored I was to be trusted to present this valuable info!

If a random picture of me just minding my own business in public wearing a respirator ends up on the internet somewhere I’ll be the most unsurprised person ever Fucking turning point participants got real quiet as I walked by…took a lot for me to just walk by & say nothing

Disability fact of the day If you know a disabled person, u know ONE disabled person. Not all disabled people are the same & actually each person is unique set of information & variables which means you cannot take what you know & transfer it to another Listening to each is key

Disability fact of the day Exercise is not the answer to everything. Actually, when you are disabled, exercise isn’t even an option. Disabled people want to be active, they are simply limited by what their meatsuit will allow them to do. Stop giving advice no one wants.

Disability fact of the day: Heat intolerance is a symptom of many med issues & it can also be a side effect of any number of meds. If someone gets heat intolerance from their chronic illness(es) & med(s) then it’s not that they don’t want to go outside, it’s that they can’t

Disability fact of the day: Heat intolerance is a symptom of many med issues & it can also be a side effect of any number of meds. If someone gets heat intolerance from their chronic illness(es) & med(s) then it’s not that they don’t want to go outside, it’s that they can’t

Disability fact of the day: Not all disabilities are visible. Assumptions & judgements aren’t helpful & more times than not are harmful. Before you decide to be a jerk, think to yourself, “am I judging without all of the information” & if the answer is yes, mind your business

Serious question? What the fuck could you possibly be celebrating on Saturday??? Is it the racism?? The ableism?? The constant murder & kidnapping of innocent human beings?? Yea, there isn’t anything to get excited about around here

“Maybe if you talked about the bias of HCW in a nicer way you’d get farther” Do you know how violent it is to be a patient, having an HCW use bias/stigma against them to either treat them or deny them treatment?!? Why do I need to be nice when calling that out?
