yall ever wake up in a cold sweat over a dream about someone you talked to a year ago?

boutta lose it

(if you know me irl you’re not allowed to question me about this im too humiliated)

MY MOM JUST COMPARED DIGITAL ART TO AI SAYING,"you think Van Gogh would agree with digital art?" YEAH CUZ IM NOT COMMITING ART FRAUD AND PLAGURISM????

huuuuge fan of little phrases you can add to the end of your sentences just for fun. "if you even care" and "btw" and "I fear" have done sooo much for my vocabulary. if you even care

oh...that's why my "rest day" ended in more pain :/

Fun fact! Did you know that if you don't move around enough with chronic pain, that it will hurt just as bad if you move around too much?! So no matter what you do, there is only

pain˚✧ ﾟ.

I am no longer explaining my chronic illnesses. I'm only ominously referencing them like I'm a fantasy realm NPC dropping plot hooks:

I am besieged by the affliction

The ritual was successful, but it has drained me. I need time to recuperate.

I can't do that, because of The Curse

Dark forces are conspiring within me. I must conserve my strength to battle them.

Unseen foes assault me. I cannot strike back with blows, but I can lessen their influence by consuming certain alchemical rites.

I love when symptoms act up randomly, like why is my hip hurting randomly you haven't done any hard work in two days..

ideas from@/ a.dykeotomy on tiktok!!

“sneezed”

“got poked in the eye”

“turns out fish don’t fear me at all….he just came right up to me..”

“inflation”

“wouldn’t you like to know weather boy”(a classic imo)

“too powerful”

“some freak named Dave.”

“fucked around….found out.”

“Geese.”

Some funny/less paltable things you can say when people invasively ask why you have a mobility aid!

"It's a weapon."

Ignore them

Something dramatic like "Oh I was attacked by a shark" or "I got caught in a zombie apocalypse"

"It's to spice up my outfit"

"I tried to build an army of insert favorite animal and they turned on me :("

"What insert mobility aid?"

"Why do you have an insert mobility aid?"

"Why do you not have an insert mobility aid"

"Do I know you?"

"Yeah I guess I just couldn't wait for my 60s"

"Just to bother you."

"Just to confuse you."

"Wouldn't you like to know"

"I went through a wildly traumatic experience, thanks for asking"

anyone have tips for moving out of state? I might be going out of state for school and I'm scared out of my rocker.

spoke deeply to me.

shoutout to all my people with invisible disabilities

shoutout to people who don’t feel disabled enough

shoutout to people who have been denied care because they don’t look disabled

shoutout to people who thug it out every single day because the world doesnt stop when you’re disabled no matter how much you wish it would

shoutout to people with no diagnosis but still have symptoms because you don’t need a diagnosis to have symptoms

the bones. they ACHE.

as a christian ^^^^

Reblog is this is a safe space for the identities theses flags represent pls follow too

Hehehe I’m a demiboy <3

what’s it called when you’re so disconnected from reality that cold water doesn’t feel like anything and you can barely taste food anymore

“message me” I absolutely will NOT

౨ৎ‧₊˚ they'll message you after a post talking about how sad and ill you are too?? can they just be normal 🙏

Casually daydreaming about the mobility aids I think would help me, ya know, like every able bodied person does.

"I ate extra bleached paper as a child." "what are you? a cop?" "immortality costs an arm and a leg, I'm on a loan." "you know that fear of getting caught in an escalator?" "it's a long story including, (insert unhinged items), (random person)< (weird location)" (switch it up each time)

A bunch of resources I've found as I've been learning about canes and how to use them ...

➡️ Physiopedia - types of canes, types of handles/grips, and how to use your cane

➡️ Mayo Clinic - How to size your cane, how to walk with it, and how to go up and down stairs

➡️ Pathways - Signs you might need a mobility aid

🎥 Video by Vive Health - demonstration of correct sizing and how to position your cane when walking, featuring a quad cane

🎥 Video by Orthopedic One - longer demonstration of how to walk with cane as well as demonstration of how to go up and down stairs

➡️ Web MD - what a cane is useful for, 3 types of cane, and how to use a cane (including how to go between standing and sitting)

🎥 Front Row with Ed and Elizabeth - how not to use a cane

➡️ Seniors Mobility - How does a cane help, how to walk with a cane, how to use a cane for balance, how a cane can help with back pain, and when you might need crutches instead

➡️ Med Plus Health - Canes vs walkers/rollators

Please feel free to reblog and add to this list or let me know if you've got a better resource for any of these topics ✌️

Google when I look for advice for my autism: "How to deal with Your CHILD WITH AUTISM."

Google when I look at advice for cane user stuff: "Canes for old people. What to do when you're 80 and your joints hit the shitter.

I am screaming and hitting the wall just give me advice I can actually use.

manifesting this for all my disabled friends.

get you a partner who loves you as much as walking canes love falling to the floor at every opportunity.

Reblog if you understand that disability is not a monolith and two people with the same disability do not have identical experiences ✨

what do you mean the only medicine that works for me....is illegal in this country without a prescription and referral....when they hand our opiods after surgeries...

I hate when I'm told not to be bitter, not to be angry, like that's not what kept me alive for so long. The bitterness of having to push through to prove people wrong, to use my existence as a giant "fuck you", you want me to be soft? fuck you.

if you use chatgpt genuinely i view you as an imbacile.

kill the imposter syndrome in your head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they’re also using chat gpt to do it
