Weird brain disconnect for me:

Am autistic: yes, accepted (personally), nothing wrong with this, just a different operating system

Am borderline: :(, makes me feel bad if i think about it too long, my personilty is disordered, but my personality is all of me, there’s nothing that isn’t my personality, feels like it’s saying my personality is wrong and bad and therefore I am wrong and bad

Like, yes autism affects all of me, but I am in the camp of just different wiring, yeah there’s some issues but mostly I’m good witn it

And with my depression or whatever, like that’s not me, that’s separate from me, I’m not my depression

But how can I not be my bpd. Feels like everything is wrong with me

Is it weird to have an inferiority complex about being disabled? Like I am disabled but it feel really weird to use that label because I’m not ‘disabled-disabled’ like it doesn’t affect the vast majority of my life at all but I am ....but also am I allowed??

My grandmother was glad I had my cane too at the wedding last week. It made her less self conscious about hers. What's that say about our society?

“How I Cured My ADHD”

“Oh yeah, I realized that ADHD made it like impossible to focus on stuff that I didn’t want to do so now I only do stuff that I want to do because I can focus on that stuff. You should try it sometime because medication makes you not interesting.” Thanks. For telling me that I can ‘cure’ ADHD by avoiding things that I need to do. I’ll just take all my free time and money and use it to -- OH WAIT, I don’t HAVE THOSE THINGS. Not to mention I work in HEALTH CARE. I can’t just lapse into inattention when it could KILL PEOPLE.

"I have schizophrenia and your 'headmates' aren't real" an actual post by an actual person who is not even worth my time can you believe this jackass

[halftruthsandhyperbole]

we have a new procedure at work that fundamentally changes the way we do another procedure but nobody really told us so now you'll have to do it this way instead of the old way that has been hammered into your heads

and so we all were trying to figure out how to do it and then one of them was like oh so you just do it his way

and it was so perfectly logical and like obviously the next step and i understood each basic concept perfectly but yet i didn't make the next step to critically thinking about it

and it just made me so angry for the rest of the day

like i should have been able to figure that out myself 

and idk if it would have been different if it had been my problem and not someone else's problem but

and i don't know if this is internalized ableism how distressed i get when i don't make those higher concept thinking jumps

but it just distresses me whenever i fail to do so

i feel so stupid

i'm going to go exercise now and feel horrible about everything today is going to be a bad day i just don't understand why it has to be.
