Disabilties - Blog Posts
so sick of my body. pretty much been confined to my bed for weeks. sleeping shitty because of pain and my mental health has taken a hit.
just ughhhhh.
wheres the romance or “attraction” around disability? lets talk about how no im not wearing lingerie actually, its my back brace, tell me how they traced the indents of your compression socks. tell me what it felt like to be loved in a disability setting. or do you just not love me?
This shit needs to be stopped. These people literally cannot work labour. They can barely make enough off of their disability. They should NOT be expected to work. Please reblog and help these people!! This is getting ridiculous.
The Irish government is proposing an overhaul to the country’s disability welfare system that will lead to disabled persons being forced into employment.
There is a plan for a three tier system, with the lowest level being forced to take up “places in training and employment programmes, and take up employment opportunities that are appropriate to their capacity and circumstances.” and receiving €220 a week,
the middle “being expected to make reasonable efforts both to engage with Intreo and to take part in training and other programmes appropriate to their circumstances”, and receiving €242.65 a week, and the highest not being required to work, but only receiving €265.30 a week.
With our country’s outrageous cost of living, not even the highest tier of welfare is enough to live off of.
This motion must not be allowed to pass.

Queer, undiagnosed, disabled, homeless artist still trying my best to be happy
After my PTSD was triggered I could no longer live with my childhood abuser. The stress caused me to get ill. I moved out so I wouldn't have to live with them. I'm Now temporarily living at with my girlfriend's now. My condition has been getting worse. I can't walk without a can. My lab results keep coming back normal, but I suspect I have pots.
ENOUGH WITH THIS SAD SHIT THOUGH
After several months of taking a social media break, I'm back! I want a community, a place to show my art, and maybe even make a business.
This is me, this is my art ٩(๑`^´๑)۶
If you like my art, or are another chronically ill baddie, feel free to follow it even dm me (^_-)-☆
I told my mom “I wish there was a thing that could help me when I’m feeling dizzy so that I don’t have to lay down” and she agreed.
I was talking about a cane but when I specifically said “I want a cane” she said I didn’t need it.
Choose. Do I need an aid to help with my dizziness or am I not disabled enough for a cane?
(I’m getting a cane in the future either way)
If anyone has name suggestions, I would love to hear them.
I have, literally, written for three days straight and I have a permanent headache
