this shouldn’t have to be said but if someone who struggles with cognitive issues due to things such as fibro fog, autism or adhd etc has difficulty speaking or getting their point across, do not point it out. im talking about stuttering, misremembering words and definitions, using the wrong words in place of other ones, mixing up words or merging them together. you are allowed to help us find the right word but wait for us to ask first and give us a chance to find it ourselves. blurting out random words causes a lot more confusion for us and we often end up losing our train of thought.

also, in a similar vein, we may pause to think about what we’re going to say next, and it’s important that you not interrupt. for me, my train of thought is already on the verge of derailing. if i stop talking mid-sentence, give me a second to find my words and sort out my jumbled mess of a brain. don’t start speaking like we’ve finished our sentence and please don’t just abandon the conversation. it’s very frustrating, especially when you make jokes or tease us for forgetting words or misspeaking and it makes it much harder for us to get to our point. and tbh it’s embarrassing and it sucks because our brains aren’t doing what we want or need them to do and we don’t need a reminder every time it happens.

like the jokes might seem harmless or lighthearted but it hurts nonetheless because we are constantly in a struggle against our own brains. it seems like it should be such an obvious thing, not to tease or make fun of someone with cognitive issues, but so many people do it, including some of you who don’t think you do— particularly if you don’t think the reason behind it is a disability. it’s not the same as joking about your friend making a typo in the group chat. those are minor slip-ups and they happen to everyone. for a lot of us, they’re constant. we’re almost always trying to get our brains to work with us rather than against us and pointing it out only makes it that much harder to concentrate on actually articulating our thoughts instead of focusing purely on avoiding misspeaking so you won’t point it out again. obviously this will vary from person to person, not everyone with these symptoms feels the same way i do, but i think it’s a good rule of thumb to just. not interrupt and/or draw unnecessary/unwanted attention to our speech problems. i don’t think it’s too much to ask.

Oh, how i love the mist and clouds settling over the towns streets and roofs. But the cold is making home in my body. Crowding and constricting the nerves. Making it rain ice and blow in the corners of my bones. It burns with numbing passion hot as my own. I can't feel my hands or toes. This warmth is crushing below the snow.

Controversial post for people without Fibro:

Fibromyalgia is a neurodivergence because of Fibro fog. Our brains do not work the same as our neurotypical peers at all, and that’s not even mentioning how most of us have at least anxiety and depression along side it.

Having fibromyalgia means I can't make plans, things are so unpredictable and it honestly drives me crazy whenever I plan to do something hyper important like celebrating my friend's birthday or working on a commission with a tight deadline. I keep telling myself that I need to stop making plans, do what I can today because tomorrow my situation is unknown. But that's also just normal, people create expectations, I can't avoid that...I guess I just shouldn't blame myself for being frustrated.

Today was the day...

Finally after months of medical gaslighting und running from doctor to doctor, I got the diagnosis, I knew I have... Fibromyalgia

It's kind of relieving, because it means I didn't imagined all my symptoms, they were real. But after some thinking, well you know, it's hard to swallow a pill with so many stereotypes and with the title "chronic illness". I still feel the pain, I felt for such a long time, I still am the same person, it's just that I got validation, but I got not really answers for anything, no real support, nobody who is telling me how this journey will continue.

I still feel kind of alone...

2024 hasn’t been easy so I’m trying to have more of a work life balance- hopefully by working ahead of schedule I’ll be able to stop pushing myself over the edge. I’ve been recuperating since the beginning of January and being that it’s February now I feel hopeful and nervous- but I’m working at it. In the video above I talk about having chronic pain as an artist and the struggles that come with it.
