“I learned the hard way that I cannot always count on others to respect my feelings - even if I respect theirs. Being a good person doesn’t guarantee that others will be good people. You only have control over yourself and how you choose to be as a person. As for others, you can only choose to accept them or walk away.”

a couple of things 

1. if your feminism doesn’t include the disabled community, it isn’t  feminism 2. if your disability activism doesn’t include invisible disabilities, it isn’t activism

“I’m an observer. I read about life. I research life. I find a corner in a room and melt into it. I can become invisible. It’s an art, and I am a wonderful practitioner.”

WOMEN’S HISTORY ☈ SAPPHO (c. 630-612 BCE – c. 570 BCE)

Sappho was an ancient Greek lyric poetry who was born on the island of Lesbos. Very little is known of her life and most of her poetry has been lost, but it is clear from contemporary sources that she was very well-regarded by the ancient Greeks. What poetry of hers that does survive often has homoerotic overtones, which is why the word “lesbian” derives from the name of her birth place.

“Opposites attract” should be reserved for like “she’s messy and he’s neat!” Not like “she’s supportive and he’s a soul-sucking toxic person!”

Image description: A tweet from @Belle_Rope that says “My therapist made a life changing statement during therapy today. “You don’t have to feel hopeful about the future, it’s enough to just be curious about what is coming.” I can’t even describe how eye-opening that one sentence was.

3 types of self soothing thoughts

Validation - it’s ok that I hurt and want to feel better

Reassurance - I can handle this pain, even though it hurts and I don’t like it

Perspective taking: I’ve had bad days like this before, and my record of making it through them is 100%. I can also remember my better days, and know I’m not always hurting this much 

Concept from Depressed and Anxious, which is hands down the best and most useful book on DBT skills I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend it!
