Hello,
Here’s my name/nickname+pronouns page. Please use he/him for me, and refrain from using they/them or she/her when referring to me. It/its is fine in respectful ways.
Here is my “do not interact” list, and here are my rules and boundaries. Please respect them. I will remind you of them if anything, but if you do not respect them I will unfortunately have to block you. I will update both as needed.
Here is the tagging system for this blog!
sometimes people on here talk about "accountability" in a way that shows they think that the person they've decided is in the wrong can't actually do anything to redeem themselves other than like. suicide.
Things Accountability IS:
Apologising for the harm that you've caused.
Trying to change your behaviour.
Accepting that not everyone will forgive you and they don't have to.
Things Accountability ISN'T:
Wallowing in your guilt until you think of yourself as nothing but bad.
Accepting an overly distressing punishment for your actions.
Twisting yourself into knots to make sure everyone knows how disgusted you are by yourself.
Other people can't move on if you never do.
forever on the train that transfems and transmascs have more in common than cis transphobes want us to believe
Imagine a world where the schizoposting tag was about schizospec people sharing their experiences and not people using a slur for all their ‘craaaazy’ posts
also referring to cases of DID being diagnosed more after a popular piece of media depicts it is like. yeah man, thats kinda just what happens when cultural awareness of something increases?
imagine you see a popular post about someone realizing theyve been getting poisoned by carbon monoxide in their home and youre like "wait ive been having weird experiences like that too" so you get a carbon monoxide detector and learn that you also have been getting poisoned by carbon monoxide. you tell someone about this and either they act like you spiritually manifested the carbon monoxide in your home by learning about it or they tell you that carbon monoxide poisoning isnt real because nobody got poisoned by it until they discovered it could poison people
This!!! And anyway, isn’t it a good thing if an issue is caught, regardless for the reason, so it can be treated before it worsens?? 🤨 excellent points, OP!
When it comes to chronic illnesses, mental illnesses, and disabilities, I've noticed that a lot of able-bodied people either don't take names seriously, or don't understand and ask you to explain what it is to them.
Now, if you have any kind of disability, you know it's fucking annoying go have people make you explain something over and over again, or have people go "oh, you have X? You mean, like the [awful stereotype] thing?"
So, I have realized recently that being Vague As Shit is great for making people leave you the hell alone.
I have autism and anxiety, and with that comes the symptom of selective mutism. If you don't know what that is, Firefox is free. But I had an episode where I couldn't speak today in one of my classes, and knew I would have to explain it to my partner and probably my professor.
This usually goes with me writing that I can't speak, them asking why, me saying selective mutism, and them asking me what that is. Then I have to painstakingly write out an explanation. And, obviously, I'm tired of this. So I tried something new. When he asked, I simply told him I couldn't speak, and when he asked if I physically couldn't or just didn't want to, I just opened my mouth and unleashed the terrifying, awful, broken stuttering that comes out when I try to speak while mute.
His response was "OKAY OKAY OKAY YOU CAN STOP NOW" and he did not question me for the rest of class, and even explained to the professor what was wrong when she tried to make me popcorn read.
This also works on doctors. When I tell doctors I have PCOS, POTS, or hEDS, they usually hear "oh the crazy women self diagnosis disabilities" and treat me accordingly. So, instead I drop unhinged symptoms until they leave me alone.
"Yes, my last menstrual cycle started on December 12th, 2025 and ended January 28th, 2026." "I have experienced several events where I have passed out randomly, yes." "My hip has subluxated six times in the past week."
It's like in the principles of writing horror. If you name and describe the problem, it's easier for people to minimize and ignore. Don't let them. You live with this fucking bullshit every day. Let your symptoms haunt people. They don't need to know everything about you. Besides, it makes them treat you better than when you give them names.
I completely agree, I just think it’s important to tweak the opening paragraph a tad bit.
When talking about disabilities as a whole in a conversation about being misunderstood by non-disabled people—unless you’re specifically talking about physical disabilities and experiences misunderstood by all able-bodied people, including able-bodied people with mental illness(es)—it’s important to just say “abled people”, not “able-bodied”.
Many disabled people due to mental health issues are able-bodied and are unintentionally alienated from the conversations that include them when this language is used.
Other than that, this is an excellent point!
It helps not only fights ableism without putting excessive stress on disabled individuals (trying to justify or “prove” anything), but it also helps individuals with disabilities advocate for themselves!
I especially appreciate your explanation of how it works well in both medical contexts and everyday situations!
And you’re definitely right about disabled people having to put up with way too much bs as what society sees as “just part of their life, nothing for us to worry or care about 😇”. Reminding abled people about the struggles people with disabilities go through just to live each day would likely help them understand why we need to be taken seriously! So you’re definitely speaking facts right there 😌
(Tw for brief mentions of mental health struggles)
It may take some time and patience, but…
It IS possible to survive hallucinations and thrive.
It IS possible to survive paranoia and thrive.
It IS possible to survive suicidal ideation/attempts and thrive.
It IS possible to survive mood swings and more extreme, long-term elevated moods/mental states and thrive.
It IS possible to survive intrusive thoughts and thrive.
It IS possible to survive SH and thrive.
It IS possible to survive SA/CSA and thrive.
It IS possible to survive traumatic experiences and flashbacks and thrive.
It IS possible to survive depression and thrive.
It IS possible to near-constant panic attacks and still thrive.
It IS possible to survive through cognitive changes and changes to your abilities and still thrive.
Your mental illness is not the end. Your disability is not all that you can be. Your struggles will not end you inherently.
It IS possible to find acceptance. It is possible to find people who care about and love you or to grow to appreciate your inherent self worth.
It is not a moral failing to struggle. You’re lovable. You’re valuable. You’re alive, and that alone means that you have a chance in this world.
It’s going to be okay. Hold on, it’s okay to find that balance between rest and fight for a better life, in whichever way that best fits you.
Don’t give up.
This!!!!!
Also it is possible to survive a toxic or abusive relationship!

Sometimes processing trauma looks like making mini comics about dogs.
I made this, please feel free to use
I made this post a couple months ago, and I completely forgot that I made it
today has been one of the worst days of my entire life, and this post somehow made its way back to me, like a mental-health chef boyardee can.

If you can go outside, please do it. I understand many are bedbound but it really is good to get some fresh air, even on your porch, if you're able to. Please don't take your ability to for granted just because someone out there can't go out at all.
It's not ableist to say get some fresh air. Hell, even open your window or something.
Bedbound people everywhere would prefer you didn't close yourself in on their behalf just because asking you to touch some grass would be ableist against THEM specifically.
"Just because I'm right, doesn't mean I'm being helpful" is a vastly underrated thought process that I strongly encourage others to get comfortable with
♫ ྀི ˚̣̣̣ ◌ ⃘ 𓈒 When you’re literally losing touch with reality but all they see is your “disrespectful attitude” and zoning out.
People saying "abled-bodied" when they are talking about non-disabled people. "abled" is right there.
This is saneism and ableism.
Reminder that political figures, abusers, bigots and general bad people aren't "delusional", "brain-dead", "narcissistic" or "psychotic" for the horrible things they do.
They're assholes. Or arrogant. Or power hungry. Or abusive. Or bigoted. Or heavily biased. Or criminals. Or violent. Or aggressive. Or out of touch. Or genocidal. Or any other descriptive word for what they're doing that doesn't make an already stigmatised symptom any more demonised.
