I think when people think of mental illness and what helps, especially with things like anxiety and depression, the treatment involves pushing yourself. Pushing yourself to get out of bed, to exercise, to take a shower, to go out in public, to order your own food from the cashier, etc.

And because the mental health movement has grown so much, people think that's the default of ALL illnesses. That the only way someone will get better is if they push themselves. That practice makes perfect. That you'll become more comfortable or strong over time the more you do something.

But what people need to realize is, with physical disabilities and chronic illnesses, pushing yourself in most cases is DETRIMENTAL. Pushing yourself past your limits can lead to flare ups or further injury. That's why it's important to know your limits, how certain activities may affect your condition, and learn how to either adapt or get help to complete the activity in question.

Also, most of us are already pushing ourselves. Most of us don't have access to the help or equipment we need. Most of us live in places where we frequently encounter inaccessible obstacles. Most of us NEED to rest.

So please don't try to be our physical therapists or doctors. There are people specifically trained to help us navigate our own conditions and limitations. There are people trained to help us strengthen our body's resilience without causing flare-ups or injury. Do not tell us "it'll be good for you" or "you need the exercise" when we say something is too heavy or too far or when we say we need our mobility aid(s). Your friend with depression may need to be encouraged to get out of bed, but your friend with chronic illness definitely doesn't.

Respect our rest.

#wrenfea.exe #DISCLAIMER: dont take this as me saying you should be pushing your mentally ill friends #this is more about how physical conditions often differ in how they are treated #also dont like. force your friends or anyone with anxiety to do things they dont want to #thats what therapists are for #also most mental illnesses require medication alongside therapy before they can get better #but even chronic illnesses and disabilities that benefit from exercise still require knowing your limits #and not being pressured to push past them #ive noticed some professionals who help both mentally and physically ill patients tend towards the push method #like my therapist and sometimes my counselors fall back on that method #and i have to remind them i am already pushing myself #and i need to adapt rather than push forward #chronic disability #chronic pain #spoonie #disability #chronic illness #cripple punk #cripplepunk #cpunk

DP x DC Camp

The Batfam force Damian to go to summer camp to socialize with kids his own age and have some normal childhood experiences

That’s all well and good, but normal does not describe his cabin’s councilor, one Daniel “for the love of Ancients call me Danny” Fenton

Between the son of the bat and a Fenton, camp is going to be weird

dp x dc prompt #51

when damian was sent to investigate a‘brainwashing summer camp’ he was not pleased. The kid who shared his cabin room might make it more bearable though. Danny seems to hate this place just as much as he does.

Two days later after both of them are tied up in the store room for spying, maybe he should have come in with a better plan.

summer camp dead serious thing that nobody but my brain asked for.

Finishing MTMTE: why did they only bring one psychotherapist on the quest?

eddie's nerdy little watch simply doesn't get the attention it should. like, this man is a menace with the alarms. it beeps constantly. gareth once tried to accidentally drop it in a puddle outside of the hangout but surprise! water resistant. jeff tried to throw it into the bushes, but oops! eddie finds it when it starts beeping. everyone around him wants that watch dead and sure, even eddie grows tired of it eventually but knowing that it drives his friends absolutely fucking insane is enough to keep wearing it.

#eddie munson #eddie munson headcanons #corroded coffin #stranger things #eddie #headcanons #been thinking about this for awhile bc i was the beeping watch goblin when i was a summer camp counselor lmao #lore and more

aged up designs that i made a bit ago :))

#definitely could change these up a bit at any point #louise is my fav design of the three i’m especially happy about theirs #i would think that louise would still be working at the restaurant- probably not owning it yet or anything #emphasis on “yet’’#BUT i also think that cool careers for her could be a lawyer or ermm a guidance counselor #tee hee #tina is an author!! writes romance novels and such #STRANGE romance novels ofc but her readers have a fine taste #i think she could also possibly write stuff for kids at some point.. maybe under a different name lmao #i remember seeing a different headcannon for what her career would be and thinking it was cute but i can’t remember it rn grrr!!!!!#i’m not sure about gene but him alex and courtney could do music stuff together #maybe they have a successful soundcloud #also #i wanted to draw more jewelry on him but my brain wasn’t working #whatevr just imagine it ❤️#bob’s burgers #gene belcher #tina belcher #louise belcher #character design #mick draws #doodles

Do you think Wyll told his father all about Tav, how wonderful they are, and their entire love story before he proposed to them? Do you think Duke Ulder Ravengard watched his son's eyes light up with love and just softened, remembering bitterly just how much time and how much of his son's life he had missed in sending him away? Do you think he gave Wyll and Tav his blessing? Do you think he congratulated Wyll when he gleefully reported back that Tav said yes? Do you think father and son were considering the very tentative plans for a wedding when this was all over?

Do you?

Because I do. I think a great deal about it.

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #wyll ravengard #wyll x tav #ulder ravengard #i'm just saying i would have liked some reactivity to the wyll romance from his literal father #and maybe counselor florrick as well #like you mean to tell me these people who have known wyll his whole life wouldn't have some reaction to his being visibly smitten?#bg3 spoilers #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #tbh i wish there was more reactivity to romanced companions in their personal quests period #like wdym we're meeting an important person from this character's past & they have nothing to say about a romantic partner in tow?

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Guess who just got the voice feature on character.ai?? ME BITCH HAHHAHAHHAA

Anyways, if y’all are wondering if it’s good or not. It’s preeeeetty alright. Like, for Colin? YES OH MY GOD

YES. BIG FUCKING YES

For Kai? It’s… meh. My stubborn ass made multiple test runs and used different clips to generate the ✨perfect✨ ai voice.

Problem is, he either sounds too whispery, which is okay until he’s supposed to be mad in a certain context and now he just sounds constipated

Or too loUD, which oddly kinda makes him sound like Ben Shapiro, and I’m NOT looking forward to get off to that 💀💀

I managed to get something a lil in between, but the vocal inflections were still so off and it bothers me so damn much 😭😭. Maybe ai is simply still unable to capture the essence of kai anderson idfk

((Oh and also I’ll make the Colin voice public, along with maybe two or three Kai voices. You can actually publish these lol

#Colin actually sounds like Colin #but ig kai is just too unpredictable? like it lacks the intensity that simmers beneath his calmness yk???#also it can’t shout for shit #but spiritual counselor!Kai actually sounds okay with the more whisperer voice lol #american horror story #ahs fandom #ahs #kai anderson #colin zabel #evan peters #c.ai #character.ai #c.ai creator #c.ai bot #c.ai shenanigans #c.ai chats

I think it’s such a lovely thought that the stuff you’re going through now is preparing you for the things you want.

#I know I’m sorry this is so insta inspirational post of me #but I love it #just the thought that our hearts are sure enough to know what we want and reach for it #but too stupid to understand what we need to actually be able to receive it #so God prepares us gently through the here and now #however ugly and painful!#Anyway I often feel that I don’t even know what I want and that is its own anguish #but this is still a comforting thought to me #I love when things are true just not how we think and this is kind of the heart of that #you GET the thing you want. it is also a surprise and gives you more than you thought it would #in hard ways and in good ways #I am just reflecting #I told my counselor yesterday that I did overthink everything but also I had a lot of beautiful thoughts in the overthinking #and she laughed and was like ‘yeah I can see that’

as has been previously established (or hasn’t? if not, that’s just crazy, this is a fundamental part of my personality) i am an unhinged crossover slut. i just love and enjoy crossovers, even between the most far-fetched and unmatchable fandoms possible, an incredible amount.

and a while ago i had this idea of teen wolf/stranger things crossover (which i obviously never followed up on because i never finish my projects) because their settings just vibe with each other. i thought about older steddie moving from hawkins to beacon hills for a break from all the supernatural stuff (*laughing evilly*), eddie becoming an english literature teacher and steve becoming a counselor in their high school while also helping out the lacrosse team. and danny, as he is wont to do, gets the hots for steve and actually comes onto him, because steve is a young teacher still and danny has bad experiences with older men not caring about his age as long as he’s down to get laid. and obviously steve is terrified and calls eddie immediately because he admittedly can handle this better, considering his own experiences with driving out to indy for questionable hook-ups with older guys while he was still in high school. and at first danny’s like “omg it’s so dumb why are they making such a huge deal out of this” and also pretty embarrassed about the whole situation, but soon steddie become his pillar of support, because they’re two older queer guys!! married!! literally teaching in his school!! (although he never openly admits how much this means to him). but since steve is more of a kindred spirit to him, he comes to him for advice and just to bitch about shit from time to time and steve basically takes him under his wing like he did to the party.

and then there’s stiles (yes, this is a danny/stiles scenario. you can take this ship out of my cold, dead hands, they’re my favorite in tw) who is absolutely obsessed with his new eng lit teacher who is open about also being adhd, is also an absolute nerd while somehow still being undeniably cool, and who doesn’t get angry at his dumb questions in class or snap at him for getting distracted, so he’s got a little bit of hero worship going on. and then there’s eddie, who can sniff a lost sheepie from a mile away and can see how isolated stiles is aside from being friends with scott, so he keeps an eye on him and gets caught up in increasingly weird but incredibly interesting conversations with him after class and privately hopes to corrupt him into getting into dnd. and then he notices the way stiles stares at danny in his class without seemingly even realizing it, or watches him say the dumbest shit to danny trying to get his attention, and immediately goes “boy, do i know the feeling”.

so obviously he tells steve and they hatch a plan to get danny and stiles together, because stiles is such a good boy and maybe dating him would finally stop danny from going out with very questionable older people, and danny seems begrudgingly amused with stiles’s antics anyway, so maybe there’s something there, and their whole dynamic just reminds steve and eddie so much of themselves, makes them think of what they could have been, if they had gotten their shit together earlier, so obviously they can’t just do nothing about it.

and then steddie get dragged into the whole supernatural bullshit (because of course they do), and steve takes out his trusty nail bat. everyone just keeps thinking like “who the hell are these guys and why are they in any way involved in this??” and stiles and danny seriously reconsider their matching scars.
