An Introduction
Hey everyone, my name is Aria. I am from the United Kingdom (I know, we all have our flaws), and I am fourteen. I like hanging out with my friends, watching YouTube videos, playing video games - all in all, I'm pretty much like anyone else. Except, I'm terminally ill.
This post isn't supposed to come across as some kind of grand statement or announcing myself Lady of The Shire. I just wanted to introduce myself to the community. I was recently diagnosed with juvenile ALS and I've created this account to share my experiences. There aren't many people my age who have this illness, and there's even fewer who are talking about it. I just hope this account can help one person, be that to know they're not alone with ALS, or even just to learn about my illness.
While it certainly isn't the ideal circumstances, it is nice to meet you all. My DMs are always open for a chat, and if you want to ask a question, feel free to use the ask function.

Greetings bugs and worms!
This comic is a little different than what I usually do but I worked real hard on it—Maybe I'll make more infographic stuff in the future this ended up being fun. Hope you learned something new :)
If you are still curious and want to learn more about OCD, you can visit the International OCD Foundation's website. I also recommend this amazing TED ED video "Starving The Monster", which was my first introduction to the disorder and this video by John Green about his own experience with OCD.
The IOCDF's website can also help you find support groups, therapy, and has lots of online guides and resources as well if you or a loved one is struggling with the disorder. It is very comprehensive!
Reblog to teach your followers about OCD
(But also not reblogging doesn't make you evil, silly goose)

Shout out to the ten year old who just got diagnosed. Shout out to the housebound fourteen year old. Shout out to the eighteen year old who can’t go to the university they wanted. Shout out to the twenty two year old who can’t get a job. Shout out to the twenty six year old with a caretaker. Shout out to the thirty year old who can’t buy their own house.
Shout out to young disabled people. We exist.

There’s no such thing as work-life balance for neurodivergent & chronically ill people.
This is because everything in my life requires work:
maintaining friendships
keeping up with my hygiene
managing bills
making money
remembering my basic needs
sleeping regularly
outputting creatively
All requires some aspect of work for me.
And when everything in your life requires work, your balance goes out the window.
If you're neurodivergent and overwhelmed — I see you.
If you're chronically ill and overwhelmed — I see you.
You're not dysfunctional.
You're not incapable.
You're doing your best.

applying for jobs seems to mostly consist of lying and submitting to indignities, which is whatever. but it is very difficult for me to override my innate instinct that anyone demanding i write a cover letter has insulted me so greatly that the only way to retain my honor is violence

Thanks for hanging out with me! Was I cool? did you like me? What do you think of me in detail? Do you hate me?

ok so you support the disabled, disordered, and mentally ill. but are you normal when someone takes long to respond to you? or if they have a hard time listening to you? when someone has a hard time giving you their attention? or when their manners aren’t perfect? or when someone makes mistakes that may be obvious or simple to you? or when someone talks loudly or “causes a scene?” are you normal when people have to think really hard to explain things? or when they have a hard time putting their thoughts into words?
are you normal when people’s hair is unkempt or oily or visibly unbrushed? or when their face might be full of acne? or when they don’t have deodorant on for one reason or another? how about if their clothes are dirty? 
are you normal about disabled/disordered/mentally ill people when they make you a little uncomfortable?

Re-emergence
It's been some time, but I am going to be back now. My times have not been easy, but I'm alive still for now, and I will do all I can to advocate for myself while I'm here.
Update on my health - I am now a wheelchair user full time as my legs are practically useless, and I'm beginning to struggle to hold things. Swallowing is super hard.

i don't know who needs to hear this, but guilt, self-hatred and shame are not sustainable sources of growth and healing. you can't hate yourself into feeling better, or being better. you can't repeatedly punish yourself for your flawed humanity and expect wholesome results.
