// Shoutout To Everyone With Kleptomania. I Also Have It And I Know How Bad It Can Be. It Gets Better!

Everyone stop putting your breakup venting and politics in the complusive lying tags challenge. Stop tagging shit about your ex cheating or politicians lying in a tag that should be for people with a highly stigmatized symptom of trauma and mental illness to find each other and talk about our own experiences.

Is there anyone else who doesn't remember the "before my TBI" time? Like, you were super young (I was eighteen months) when the TBI happened, and there was never really a "before" for you, this has just always been your reality?

you are not a burden.

you are strong.

when a disabled or chronically ill person tells you they cant do something, fucking listen. our limits arent negotiables, we cant hold on for "just a little longer", its more than "just one second". stop trying to get us to push ourselves. it's basic respect.

Man, I’m going to have to put something like ‘lifters don’t interact’ on klepto things going forward, aren’t I? Like it really sucks, but they make actual!kleptos look shittier than we already are and I don’t want people to think the two are the same thing.

someone: yeah I support mentally ill people. I want to get rid of the stigma

me: yeah so I'm recovering from a self harm addiction- *an anvil is dropped on my head*

no you won’t be “high support needs” “like me” if you just unmasked, especially if choose to unmask, thank you very much.

"Brain damage" only sounds like a harsh and offensive way to describe brain injuries because people constantly use it as an insult. It's a totally neutral descriptor of what it is. I have brain damage. My brain is damaged. It's not ableist to call it that, it's ableist to call people you don't like brain damaged because you think it's an inherently bad thing to be.

(Yes abled bodied neurodivergents, that includes you)
