This isn’t related to my blog aesthetic but I’m tired of seeing posts where people are making others paranoid that they’re in a coma or something. You’re not. I know lots of us know it’s just a bad “joke,” but some people don’t have the luxury of being able to believe that after seeing others tell them otherwise.

You’re awake. Everything is okay.

[clothing-references]

Hey so I’ve been dealing with some horrible cases of dissociation recently. It makes me think things that don’t make sense. I wanted to bring this post back and add onto it.

Your life is real.

You are awake.

You aren’t lying on the ground or anything. No one is desperately trying to wake you.

I am one person living in Houston who made this post. I am a living, conscious breathing person and if I made this post and it reaches you, that means you are, too. You didn’t imagine this post up. I made it two years ago.

You aren’t dead. You aren’t seeing things. That light headed feeling is just a symptom. This isn’t a dream and you are going to be okay. I believe in you and I hope you get through this.

for all my followers who deal with derealization 

[gayshitanddadjokes]

This helped me. Thanks.

[dovewithscales]

As a person who suffers occasional derealization episodes, this is a good post.

THIS THIS OH MY GOD THIS THIS THIS

[posts-from-a-weirder-timeline]

Hey actually if anyone is having a tough time right now and just needs someone to talk too, and or remind them that the world their living in is real message me

because I know how it feels and I refuse to let derealization episodes take anymore happy moments away from people.

VACCINATE YA KIDS FFS

[blueinkblot]

The other thing about measles is that it resets your body’s memory of other diseases. So all those times you’ve gotten sick? Your body’s memory cells no longer remember those illnesses, so even if you get the same type of illness again your body will react like it’s the first time you’ve been sick.

It’s so much worse than “just a disease”.

Measles does WHAT

Holy fuck

What the fuck what the fuck what the fUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK

antivaxxers also sabotaged the human lyme disease vaccine. they literally conspired online in usenet boards to go out and participate in the vaccine trials, and they all proceeded to complain of arthritis, the only symptom of lyme disease they were apparently aware of. this caused media hysteria about the vaccine. if you remember the flu vaccine hysteria around the swine flu epidemic, it was kind of like that. despite double-blind trials being unable to support their claims and instead displaying that the vaccine was safe and effective, the damage was done, and the vaccine was shelved in the USA. you can get a lyme disease vaccine in Europe, but Europe has a different strain of the bacteria that causes lyme disease.

Lyme disease can become very serious, it can infect the nervous system and cause neurological problems especially in young children who are often bitten on the head or the neck, undiagnosed it can cause chronic health issues that mimic other diseases. Without safe prophylactic measures beyond trying to minimize contact w ticks, this has driven people who have had lyme disease, have chronic effects from mass-disseminated lyme disease infection, or people who believe they have chronic lyme disease to go to quack doctors and undergo unsafe, unapproved medical treatment in an attempt to stop suffering.

This would not be happening on the scale that it is if antivaxxers didn’t straight up execute a supervillain plot to sabotage the lyme disease vaccine bc this happened the same year andrew wakefield published his fraudulent research on the MMR vaccine

these people are fucking dangerous beyond compare

[wingsy-keeper-of-songs]

Anti-vaxxers are a plague upon humanity. I work at a daycare, and we are REQUIRED by LAW to have those kids vaccinated, but somehow some parents find ways around these requirements and end up giving these preventable diseases to everyone else. I was given the mumps by one of these kids whose parents either didn’t care enough to get the kid vaccinated or fell for that Jenny McCarthy bullshit. The mumps is a miserable illness and I am damn lucky that it was a fairly minor case. But minor or not it is still beyond painful to swallow and my entire right cheek swelled up to double it’s size. It was awful. I had to go to the ER on fucking Thanksgiving Day because some parents decided they knew better than every doctor practicing medicine who urges people to vaccinate their kids. VACCINATE. YOUR. KIDS.

[anotherdayforchaosfay]

Anti-vaxxers would rather have dead children than vaccinate them because they believe lies. That’s what it comes down to: dead children.

[kari-izumi]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

[wetwareproblem]

Reminder: Antivaxxers would rather have dead children than autistic children.

This whole thing started with a fear of their kids turning out… like us.

Please stop erasing us from this narrative.

If you’re antivax, you’re a murderer in my mind.

very gentle reminder that mental health bloggers aren’t your therapists. 

there are so many helpful people & resources on this site and I encourage you to use that. read our posts, ask questions, submit asks (just read the guidelines first). we post this stuff to be helpful! but at the end of the day most of us are not professionals, we probably don’t know you personally, and we get overwhelmed too. 

use mental health tumblr as the resource it is, bc it is an enormously valuable resource! my goodness i have learned so much on here. but don’t use it as a replacement for professional help, especially in emergencies. it’s not fair to us or to you. (there are very very few situations where a tumblr blogger should be your go-to in a personal crisis. i cannot overemphasize how unhealthy and dangerous that trend is for all parties involved. please call a crisis hotline first.)

If you are struggling in any way, I highly encourage you to speak to someone qualified. I am asking people to share links to resources in the notes (online therapy resources, counselling hotlines & chat services, and especially any helpful lists that have already been compiled.)

From what I can gather, Guad is neurodivergent, non-binary, and on the asexual spectrum - they really just went and said “fuck everything”, huh

i’m actually tired bro, like from the bottom of my heart. i am tired

[adhd-deluxe]

adhd is taking 7 hours to do something bc you need to mentally force yourself to do it. like i will literally just sit on my bed for 2 hours and try to convince myself to go to the store. i postpone going to the store for no reason. I’m not doing anything else in those 2 hours. Just sittin’ there thinking about having to go to the store

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

If I had to choose between true love and garlic, I would choose garlic. I just cannot imagine a relationship adding more to my life than garlic already does. I'm not knocking true love, I just wouldn't be willing to give up garlic in order to experience it. How did it take me so long to realize I'm aromantic
