#not psychosis i think

[roboticchibitan]

Once again thinking about the ATLA post series (not in continuity with the comics) fanfic I'll never write that follows Azula going to work in Iroh's tea shop in Ba Sing Se and her ensuing struggle with psychosis and realizing she was in the wrong and is just as much the victim of an abusive parent as Zuko was.

In this story Iroh tries to help her and at first she HATES it. She hates his kindness, she hates the sadness on his face when he sees her struggling, she hates all of it. At one point she snaps at Iroh to stop pitying her and he says, "Don't you know the difference between compassion and pity?" And she snaps back that they're the same thing and he replies, "You're wrong, Azula. Pity is simply feeling sad for someone's circumstances. Compassion is the desire for their circumstances to get better." And it hits her like a ton of bricks that this man, unlike her father, wants what's best for her. He's only ever treated her with kindness and she's disrespected him and called him weak for it and it's the most actual love she's ever received from a father figure in her fifteen years of life. And she wants nothing more than to cry in his arms but she can't yet because she doesn't know how to show weakness in front of anyone because of what her father did to her.

I see a post floating around sometimes where someone said that as a child, Azula is the scariest character, but as an adult, she's the saddest and I agree. She was 15. She deserves a redemption arc.

#maybe someday I'll write it #I know the struggle of having a cruel parent teach you to be cruel #and having to realize that your own cruelty is hurting you and you need to learn to be better #and struggling with psychosis while this realization is happening #I think I'm uniquely suited to tell this story but I don't have enough to start writing yet #atla #avatar the last airbender #azula

so REVENGE, HUH? or justice, if that makes you feel better. it tastes the same when cooked just right. 'I REALLY WANTED A BROTHER.' such a shame to burn a bridge you so desperately wanted to keep, especially when it wasnt even you who started the fire. especially when you hope that not a single fragment of that bridge ever washes ashore.[MAY IT ROT FAR FROM MY SIGHTS] an unfortunate loss! atleast he has his friends.

Ben coming back to the cabin to see yet another cannibalistic ritual

#🐇 #yellowjackets #again with the cannibalistic blue balls I see how you guys are playing the game at least I know it's gonna happen #poor javi it should have been travis let's be real he provides nothing #loved the misty on mari violence also #and we were all right about jackie's necklace! our girl's keeping the group together even still #also I know I'm literally the only one on the jackie antler queen train and while I don't think it's true rather than just funsies #it's making me wonder if this is more of a fae situation going on? it's been a looooooong time since I read about all of this stuff but now #after jackie's death and the baby's death and what happened to Ben this week it's kinda making me suspicious #like is the antler queen supposed to represent the unseelie queen? is it the unseelie queen? idk I'll have to look into this to see if it #fits. I'm leaning more towards that now than wendigo psychosis #also hilarious because I did say that portals was insanely jackie coded so we're coming full circle #also I've said I'm suspicious of walter but how the fuck is that dude so rich?? I'm onto his ass he is not to be trusted

Want to read a short comic about creativity, hope, and mental health? Look no further!

This comic is titled One Panel at a Time, and is a piece I made back in 2020 about my experience being an artist diagnosed with early-onset schizophrenia. You can read it here, or on Webtoon and Tapas if you'd like!

#I'm in a much better place than I was when I made this comic #to the point that it's a little shocking to remember thinking I had peaked in terms of my recovery back then #Young Sofie had no idea how much better life was going to get. Let that be a lesson to all of you: #Life gets better if you stick around to see it. #Also #y'all are probably starting to see some self-insert traits in Twig by now #and to that I say: #literally ALL of my characters are self-inserts #Because that's how we make writing a fun and healing hobby to have :> #stuff by sofie #comic #24 hour comic #24 hour comic day #short comic #short comics #mental health comic #mental health #schizophrenia #actually schizophrenic #psychosis #healing is not linear #healing is possible #mentally ill artist #hope #creativity #creatives #artists on tumblr #autobio comics #autobiographical comics

when y'all stop perpetuating stigmas and demonisations of certain mental disorders you deem 'scary' and 'problematic', we can actually start having a conversation about it.

self-absorbed people aren't immediately 'narcissistic'. stop using it as an insult to or even descriptor of every person you feel is being particularly selfish or conceited. NPD is a serious disorder and should be treated as such. stop demonising it.

and also, abusers who use the tactics of putting others down, making everything about them, etc. are extremely self-absorbed and could be anyone. stop making it look like it's just people with NPD, who themselves are abuse victims... often of that exact abuse you accuse them of. same goes for BPD and emotional abuse/using emotions and outbursts as abuse tactics...

generally start treating people with a cluster B personality disorder like the human beings they are, deserving of respect and kindness, just like everybody else.

stop throwing around the word 'psychotic' when you're really just trying to say somebody is 'evil' or 'deranged'. psychosis is a very serious symptom of extremely demonised disorders, like schizophrenia. people with it are just as deserving of respect and kindness as every other human being is.

low/no empathy doesn't make you a bad person. not having compassion doesn't make you a bad person. it's okay for people to not have those traits. they aren't 'monsters' for it. nor are they undeserving of your love and compassion for it, either.

in order to have a nuanced and helpful conversation about stigmas of mental disorders, you need to understand your own partaking in them and unlearn those words, behaviours and thought patterns. please.

sincerely, a person with a cluster B disorder that is sick of your hypocritical bullshit aka ableism

#don't be ableist. it's not cute. and it's not justified even if you think it is because of everyone else doing the same... #i have BPD for anyone who doesn't know yet btw #reblogging this post is very much encouraged #cluster b #cluster b safe #actually cluster b #aspd #bpd #eupd #hpd #npd #personality disorder #schizophrenia #schizophrenic spectrum #schizotypal #psychosis #stigma

edmund and his expressive eyebrows

I think my narration is funny

#the joke here is just. eyebrow talk #the joke is not at the expense of nat and his psychosis. he doesnt actually think the eyebrows are talking #the joke is just edmund and his overly expressive eyebrows #a rental car takes a left down rake street and disappears #the not-joke here is how people dont take the very real concerns and fears and opinions and truths expressed by #psychotic people seriously due to their psychosis but. that's not a conversation for right now #also yes i realise valium is a brand name and olanzapine is a generic name. I'll make em both generics at some point fjdks

Schizospec culture is not being autistic, and not being allistic, but instead being a secret third thing (schizo-spec)

While I'm not satisifed on the whole with the book's treatment of Renfield, I do love that it never takes the angle of him as some sort of cautionary tale of "This is what you get for following evil too closely! When you want to turn away later, you can't! It's your own fault for not being pure from the start!"

Like while it doesn't hold Seward to account as much as I need it to, the culpability still is fully on him for ignoring Renfield's pleading. Mina already showed there's a better way to talk to him the day before. Quincey comments that it was an awfully harsh response to him and that he can't help but feel there's something they should have listened to. Van Helsing reassures Jack's doubts while admitting he probably would have listened to Renfield if it had been just him. But hey, Seward's the expert here! ..And then it all blows up in their faces.

And then all of Jacks' reasons for dismissing Renfield are also proven wrong in the narrative: It's not about how sane he is! He's still capable of caring about people and wanting to do the right thing! After Seward's dismissal, Renfield gets the last word: Remember that I did my best to get you to listen, and you refused. The wish to do good and the choice to turn away from harming people is what mattered, even if his efforts were in vain. He just needed the CHANCE.

#renfield #dracula daily #dracula daily spoilers #jack seward #this is why my feelings on the book's ableism are mixed #bc obviously there is Mess #but at the same time the narrative portrays renfield more sympathetically than. EVERY example of psychosis in modern media i can think of #people still use 'psychotic' as a synonym for 'evil beyond the bounds of humanity' #ableism cw
