• - - Just a Reminder - - •
In case you need it:
You’re the only one who knows what you’re going through
Your pain is “enough.” Your illness is “enough.” You shouldn’t have to prove that to be taken seriously
It’s okay to not be productive. You are not less of a person for struggling/being unable to work, or go to school, or maintain friendships
You are just as deserving of love as any healthy, Neurotypical or able bodied person
Your needs and accommodations are not a burden or an annoyance, and anyone who actually cares would do what it takes to make sure they get met
It isn’t your fault if others treat you poorly for things you can’t control, that says more about them than you
You are just as deserving of a good life as anyone else
You deserve love, and even if it doesn’t feel like it, there are people out there who don’t mind and won’t see it as an obstacle
Just because you go through something regularly doesn’t mean it’s any less upsetting/traumatic/scary
Your life is not worth less, you are still a person, and you are still alive
Even if you haven’t done anything today just being here at all is an achievement. No matter what you’re going through, I’m happy you’ve made it this far, because I can’t imagine what you’ve had to go through to get here
