Great Tribute To Power Of Writing And Reading

I am a difficult person for me to manage.

I want that shirt

I sent a message last night about my new Autism Shirt™ and thought you’d like to see it

Kay: !!! it looks super soft and comfy!!! I also like the colors. They go well with your skin tone. SIDE NOTE IT THAT A HARRY POTTER POSTER IN THE BACKGROUND??? You’re a good bean, and I support you. I hope you get a lot of comfy flannels in the future.

PSA

i’ve been seeing this post a lot lately:

which means a whole lot of you don’t know the difference between an intrusive thought and an impulsive thought.

intrusive thoughts are a symptom of ocd and many other disorder, they are upsetting and often graphic, they are thoughts you do not want and that scare you, commonly thoughts about doing something violent or about abuse. i suffer from intrusive thoughts, they are triggering and upsetting and yes, dark or about killing people.

an impulse can also be a symptom of a disorder, impulses are not inherently bad and are just your brain telling you to do things with no thought as to why. some can be unpleasant, but they can also be things like “cut all your hair off” or “eat the cardboard”.

please stop saying that intrusive thoughts and impulses are the same thing, you are only adding to the stigma and misunderstanding people with intrusive thoughts face.

thank you.

sometimes it’s hard to believe in the me of tomorrow

but i shall try

because jessica says so

Current feeling: The you of today is just as wonderful as the you of tomorrow. You needn’t strive to be anything but true to yourself ♥️ . I’m in bad pain and I can’t really think coherently (it’s taken me all day to write this!) but that doesn’t mean that the me of tomorrow, who has less pain and can think clearly, is any more worthy of being listened to or taking up space. If you’re feeling pants today please take my love and hold it in your soul ♥️ . This hair was created with thanks to the @laurenrennells pin curl tool! It’s excellent for victory rolls and honestly one of the best things I’ve ever received in the post! (Not sponsored, I’m just obsessed with hair stuff 😅) .
