Needed my own reminder for my stubborn ass.

Did my mom get married without telling me? While I’m living with her?

if you dont cheer and clap for her ill fucking blow this whole building up

5/12/2022: MCR surprise drops their first new song in 8 years, “The Foundations of Decay” 🪰 Where were you when the song dropped?

dear parents, if your child has "seemed fine this entire time" but is now seeking out diagnoses, mobility aids, medical help, more doctors, and is sharing their pain more. do not fucking shut them down? even if it ends up being nothing, showing them that support through all of that will seriously help them. if it ends up being something and you're a bitch to them, the joke will be on you and that strain on your relationship will never go away because. you didn't listen.

listen to kids. we tell you what we need, it's not that hard.

If you're between the ages of 21-35, how many prescription medications do you take in a day?

having an undiagnosed illness is like the check engine light being on all the time in your car, but when you take it to the mechanic, they announce happily that all the tests came back fine! and you just stare at the check engine light with dread.

if youre considering using a mobility aid, youre probably thinking about getting a cane. even if it seems like youre issues arent bad enough, you should probably still consider other mobility aids. please look into the pros and cons of several different mobility aids, especially in conjunction with your specific disability/diagnosis/needs.

i got a cane at first because i thought my issues were "mild" and therefore i needed a "mild" mobility aid. but canes are moreso for stability than support. i damaged my wrist and worsened my scoliosis by deciding to use a cane without an educated opinion.

i now use forearm crutches primarily, a rollator for longer outings, and a wheelchair for worse days and longer events. dont make the same mistake as 16-year-old me. dont choose your mobility aid based on palatability, consider your needs and address your internalized ableism if need be.

This makes so much sense

I want to go to bed so bad but these bad boys are keeping me from her

Is it normal for your legs to fall asleep when you’re standing and not even wearing anything tight?

There are only two things that keep me going in this world: my safe space (my room) and my dogs. I am now sometimes too disabled to reach my room on the second floor so I may be forced to move out sooner than I’m ready to do so. And that will take me away from my dogs. I’m gonna be honest, I’m trying really hard not to cry.

“Well my friends have it so there’s no way you do because you aren’t exactly like them”

I just sent a text to my mom telling her that I think I have POTS and have a wheelchair in my car. Wish me luck!

Well she may be kicking me out???? And utterly dismissed it??? Wtf
