if one more person tells me I'm stable when on abilify I haven't cried or felt excitement in MONTHS I'm gonna snap shut UP
Can y'all please stop using words like "delusional", "psychotic", and "narcissistic" as insults. These are terms used to describe mental illness. Mental illness does not make people evil, stop acting like does.
able bodied people will decide you’re not disabled over *checks notes* the shoes you wear
got put on olanzapine...
When I say I prefer They/Them but you can use "She" for me, I mean it in the way you can use feminine pronouns for a ship or a piece of large machinery.
Like a poetic gendering of a genderless thing, based on vibes alone.
I am as much a woman as the massive warehouse automation system that an engineer affectionately pats while saying "she's a beauty."
I am a she in the exact same way.
I’ll say things like “oh I’m just not in a good place mentally right now” like when have I ever been in a fucking good place mentally
I'm so sad my bones ache....
I love being a women, I love calling myself a women, I love my feminity and seeing the world through the perspective of a girl, I love my radical feminism as a women and the unique experience that gives me. I love taking back my sexualization and seeing myself as beautiful as myself, in every way.
I love being a man, I love seeing the world in a new way and being excepted by male friend groups and validated, I love being masculine and strong well wearing traditionally feminine clothing, I love being able to use the masculinity that has hurt so many as a positive thing to help the world grow.
I love being non-binary, the beauty of the complexness, I can be whatever I want under the name and I can be silly about it. I can call myself gay for liking anyone, I can confuse people who hate my joy. I love to watch other queer people be filled with joy when we meet in public, both under the non-binary umbrella, joined in solidarity.
I love being genderqueer, being everything and nothing at once, calling myself what I am even if you see it as contradictory, I love not having to explain myself and just being queer. I love finding my name in every time I hear another person realize they can just call themselves queer.
HEY so mentally ill people that use drugs or alcohol deserve the same amount respect and support as mentally ill people who are sober!
If there’s anything I have no patience for, it’s other bipolar people saying deadass that bipolar people shouldn’t have kids. Like maybe YOU shouldn’t. You’re free to make that decision. But don’t let your internalized ableism label me, because most of those people assume that every other bipolar person is as dysfunctional as they are and that simply isn’t true. For example, maybe you struggle to hold down a job? I don’t. Maybe you don’t like children because they are difficult. I do. Many bipolar people are capable of being good parents. And if your argument is that we shouldn’t bring more bipolar people into the world, just fuck you. To say that a bipolar life is worth less than an abled one is pure eugenics mindset, period.
