How to call your reps when you have social anxiety

When you struggle with your mental health on a daily basis, it can be hard to take action on the things that matter most to you. The mental barriers anxiety creates often appear insurmountable. But sometimes, when you really need to, you can break those barriers down. This week, with encouragement from some great people on the internet, I pushed against my anxiety and made some calls to members of our government. Here’s a comic about how you can do that, too. (Resources and transcript below.)

Motivational resources: There are a lot! Here are a few I really like:

Emily Ellsworth explains why calling is the most effective way to reach your congressperson.

Sharon Wong posted a great series of tweets that helped me manage my phone anxiety and make some calls.

Kelsey is tweeting pretty much daily with advice and reminders about calling representatives. I found this tweet an especially great reminder that calls aren’t nearly as big a deal as anxiety makes them out to be.

Informational resources: There are a lot of these, as well! These three are good places to start:

Find your representative at house.gov

Find your senators at senate.gov

Use the “We’re His Problem Now” scripts when calling (or write your own!)

One pot red lentil soup

I recently concocted a similar recipe using several source recipes online, and though I LOVE chopping veggies, I realized I could simplify this with pre-chopped ingredients and it would be super fast and easy (and DELICIOUS) to make. Red lentils are yummy, nutritious, and don’t need to be soaked beforehand because they’re so tiny!

Servings: About 5 depending on how hungry you are!

Ingredients

1 cup red lentils

3 cups chicken OR vegetable broth

Frozen diced veggies (I recommend anything with carrots, celery, and most definitely onions)

1 can diced tomatoes

1 tsp pre-chopped garlic

1 tsp ginger (or to taste)

1 tsp cumin (or to taste)

Small dash of paprika

Salt if needed (the broth will add salt so give it a taste test first)

OPTIONAL: Olive oil

OPTIONAL: 1 serrano pepper, halved and de-seeded (may want to use gloves for this as it can make your skin hot hot hot), this makes the soup just a bit spicy but it’s not necessary!

SUPER EASY DIRECTIONS:

Add all ingredients to a large pot and bring to a boil. Cook on medium heat for ten minutes.

OPTIONAL, SLIGHTLY LESS EASY (BUT MAKES IT MORE DELICIOUS) DIRECTIONS:

Sautee veggies and garlic in olive oil in a large pot for about five minutes. This will add a lot of flavor to the veg.

Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil, and cook on medium heat for ten minutes.

Kim: Trans Burundian (Canada)

“I think I blend my queer identity and my african identity in my style through storytelling. I love reading east african stories about warrior princesses and powerful witches (who are often trans and queer)  leading their army in wars against the colonizers and slaying. I think of those women when i’m walking down the street, bracing for a comment or a look or finger pointed at me, i think of how they fought to keep their lands and bodies. Everytime i step outside of my house, i am at war with white supremacy so my looks are some sort of armours that i wear.”

OH MY NOSTALGIA!

[lessabstractednow]

I want to yell all my gay thoughts at someone and also get all my work done and also get really drunk tonight and not think about how much work I have to do

[shewhowandersthemoon]

i wish you could come over right now

[solitairedeere]

getting used to the idea that there are people who will actually respect my boundaries is so hard. like, i’m allowed to change my mind? i’m allowed to stop things if im uncomfortable? i can disagree safely? i can talk without being criticized? i can open up without being torn apart? like okay. all of that sounds fake but okay

We had a Halloween garden party, I made cake, cupcakes, bat cookies (how to make icing for bat cookies –> http://miillkribbon.blog.fc2.com/) and candied apples 😊 We had colorful smoke! It was a lot of fun to play around with it. 

learning: smoke bombs are fun but you stink for like three days haha
