Your Gay Cousin

So I know this has been done a million times, but here's another Judith Ward makeover.

[adhbabey]

hello! I've noticed your adhd checklist post going around again and noticed that you write "inattention (dissociation)" which is something I haven't seen before! I was wondering how (or if--since I'm not at all knowledgeable) this might be different from the sort of dissociation that's traumagenic?

It *is* different from trauma induced dissociation!

So basically, dissociation is just a fancy term for zoning out, daydreaming, spacing out, etc. So that is a huge symptom of ADHD, but instead of it being zoning out bc of trauma, it's zoning out or daydreaming because you're understimulated. Can't really pay attention because there's nothing stimulating and it's incredibly boring, yeah?

So that's what that means.

Imagine getting both?

[adhbabey]

*looks away* cough cough, yeah, me neither

[onlyenemiesdotcom]

It reminds me of this post that was like "zoning out is my default state, I just occasionally zone in to check how things are going"

[adhbabey]

Ghgjfjcnhjhkh i love that. Mood.

This has two moods: how fanfic and good music connect us, and being very confused and laughing at the fandoms for all these when put next to the titles

Imagine going through the world being hit on exclusively by people whom you find unnatractive. Not only that- they fully expect that for you to find them attractive and actively pursue you. In fact they'll keep trying until you tell them you're not attracted to them and even then they'll scoff and try even harder because they don't believe you and view you as a challenge.

Congratulations you're now a lesbian.

I mad agree with this.

This reminds me, if y'all haven’t heard of therapyforblackgirls.com please visit if you need a therapist. You can search by mental health need, location/distance, insurance, etc. I believe there are some that provide a sliding scale payment method for those without insurance.

If you’re not quite ready to make the jump, there is a podcast you can listen to as well as articles and links to help answer some of your questions about mental health and/or therapy.

The purpose, as I understand it, is to provide a place where black women can go to find culturally sensitive therapy. Some specialize in family/couples as well.

Take a look.

For any black Women following me! 

Taking care of your mental health is another important factor in your overall health. Fighting for good mental health is a fight worth doing, and is just as difficult, if not moreso, than physical fighting.

Zeb the day I brought him home and 1 week later.

[antiglaciernovel]

Taking Larry home for the first time vs taking him to the park the other day. When I got him about a month ago, he was super skinny and terrified of everything. Now, he’s gained some weight and some confidence and I’m so proud of how he’s been able to come out of his shell.

[queerlatinas]

I'm looking forward to the quarantine episodes of all our favorite shows that are sure to come out within the next year or less.

Getting closer to what you saw in your head, eh? Keep at it!

This is a lovely post. It goes to show that when we percieve our own work, most of us have some type of insecurities about our own talents. 

[prettyarb]

Also possibly relevant is that probably when Van Gogh finished Starry Night, he jumped up and down in frustration for a while because it didn’t look as good as it had in his head.

Tolkien used to complain that he could never write anything as well as he could imagine it.  So you know, ‘good enough’ is definitely a thing.

For maximum accuracy, the last image should be a completely different (but equally gorgeous) painting.

[charlesoberonn-deactivated20150]

It got funnier when I realized just how many tulips are in this picture.

[guardgenie]

“In a world where tulips were yellow, one dared to be different…”

[slightly-fanatic]

Every spring this picture comes back around and every spring I crack up

[al-the-stuff-i-like]

at first you just see the row of tulips in the foreground, and it’s funny

then you see the rows stretching back for yards and yards, and it’s even funnier

[ctnctnctnctnctn]
