In school, I struggled with writing-heavy projects. Everyone else seemed to have no issue writing essays, while it felt impossible for me. I would spend hours just looking at a blank page, thinking through how to start.
When I told my 8th grade teacher that I would be handing in another essay late, he offered to grade my first draft so I could spend more time catching up on other projects.
He understood why I struggled when I told him I didn’t write drafts. I only ever submitted the best version I could manage in one sitting, but only after thinking about the entire essay altogether over multiple weeks.
I’m really trying to learn and understand, while also letting go of that. I want to paint and write and create without over analyzing each step, burning out before I start.
All of this is a mood, including the tags, lol.
Our "many" disabilities disable us? Who would have guessed? Lol (this is mostly a dig at ourselves).

I often have to stop myself whenever I catch myself going “it’s just that easy” or “why can’t I be like this all the time?” after doing the most mundane shit without second thought.
It’s not that easy, I’m just having a really good day so far.
I can’t be like that all the time, I have a disability.
And that’s ok.
Yk when you get a brain fart and you're brain just refuses to brain? Well personally when that happens i just think the word ✨t o m a t o✨ and it fixes in a few seconds
I recommend choosing a random word with little significance to help jump start your brain
