my heart goes out to you if you're a disabled person who has a complicated or negative relationship with sleep. if you need to sleep a lot but can't due to life circumstances, or sleeping extra causing other symptoms to flare up. if you can't sleep enough due to pain, or nightmares, or psychosis, or bipolar, or depression. if you sleep way too much and find it hard to stay awake. if you can't fall or stay asleep. if you need medication in order to be able to sleep. if you don't feel rested from sleep. if you wake up a lot in the night. if you have bladder or bowel accidents while asleep. if you twitch or convulse or move too or get injured in your sleep. if you can't control your sleep schedule no matter what. if you can't sleep during "normal" sleeping hours. if you can't sleep for 8+ hours straight but can sleep for shorter amounts of time. if sleep is what you need but for one reason or another you just can't or refuse to do it.
i care about you. your disabilities deserve to be seen and acknowledged

Oh you love that musician that wears a strait jacket in a music video?
Oh you love haunted house attractions that are 'insane asylum' themed?
Oh you love that horror movie where the villain is portrayed to be psychotic?
But do you respect and care for mentally ill people who have been restrained because they were a danger to themselves or others?
But do you respect and care for people who are constantly in and out of psych wards, or have to live full time in psychiatric facilities?
But do you respect and care for people who have psychotic disorders, especially if they are poc and/or homeless?
Do you see us as real people, or do you just like the aesthetic of our suffering for your entertainment?

If you read "loudly" "noticeably" or "visibly" mentally ill and assume that equals being a problem for other people...
Then you're part of the problem
Unless you're mentally ill and struggling to get treatment you don't realise how much support is determined by how much you are a problem for other people
I have hallucinations and delusions but because they don't cause problems for other people I get told they aren't a problem and get no support from mental health services for it
Doesn't matter that it's scaring or upsetting me or causing me to hurt myself as long as I'm not making a problem for other people
Our treatment is not about us it's about making us more palatable for others and that means us being noticeably mentally ill even if we are no risk to anyone else or causing any harm in anyway is considered "bad"
And I'm fucking sick of it
I show distress in public and have a panic attack or meltdown and cause a scene - that's a problem even though I'm not hurting anyone and am just communicating my distress. Because it's bothering others
But quietly think I'm chosen by god to suffer for humanity which causes me to not talk about my pain and be secretive about any harm I cause to myself because telling people is a sin? - that's not a "real" delusion or problem because I didn't upset anyone else during my episode because I didn't tell them those thoughts during it. Even though it's causing me real harm and I want help to stop it from happening again
Do you see how fucked up that is?

The reason I'm so opposed to designing "Monsters based on mental illnesses!" aside from the obvious (really really easy to fall into stigma, stereotypes and risking generalizing an entire group of people) is. Because simply put even among two people with the exact same diagnoses they'll have Wildly different experiences with said mental disorders /neurodivergencies / illnesses. It simply will always be so.
Instead I'd probably just moreso approach it by having each of the persons mental illnesses/diagnoses be represented by their own personal entity. Like a guardian demon or similar. Because even though I know maybe three people with ocd, we all have differing experiences and compulsions in our day to day lives that can't be swathed over by just one representation of and "Ocd monster". And this goes for everything.
So yeah maybe more like. Everyone having their own monster, some of which belong to the same classes (so people with the same diagnosis but still differing experiences)
