I miss when I would get Tumblr asks that actually said things and weren't just digital panhandling scams.

How it feels to look for Jax fanfic/fanart tbh

people hate self diagnosis because it provides Mad people with autonomy.

self diagnosis goes against the idea that psychiatriac professionals have unique knowledge - knowledge only obtainable by someone who has studies for years, specifically from a removed & outside perspective to any individual's Madness: even if that student, themselves, is Mad.

self diagnosis goes against the idea that Mad people are inherently incapable of telling their own story - that any ways in which they do communicate, express themselves, etc. is tainted by their Madness and thus unreliable.

self diagnosis says "i know my own bodymind better than anyone; i live here. this is my life. i get to define my experiences." self diagnosis holds self compassion. self diagnosis holds self empowerment.

diagnosis is typically something "given to" Mad people. in psychiatry's eyes, diagnosis is something to describe us that we must have, yet can never attain for ourselves.

so even though self diagnosis takes from the boxes that psychiatry has prescribed, it is still a rebellion. it may not be The Solution to freeing Mad people from psychiatry - but it still means something. to me, at least.

when coping from the knowledge of being a csa survivor, how does one even begin to make peace with the idea that the original version of you, when you were still eager and energetic and authentically you was taken from you?

i still regularly think about the little girl who never got to live because now i’m here.

quieter than she was. shyer. more reserved. less innocent. far more afraid. far more paranoid. less trusting. less brave. less sure of myself.

less, in general.

she’s gone and that makes me sad that i can never be her again.

In Mexican legends, obsidian is primarily associated with the Aztec god Tezcatlipoca, often depicted with a polished obsidian mirror, as his name translates to "Smoking Mirror," signifying his ability to see into the future and the true nature of things; obsidian was considered a powerful tool for divination and was used by priests to access the spiritual realm through its reflective surface.
