#that’s enough of a diagnosis

[protosstar]

having lyrics addressing how mental health is just completely dismissed coupled with all that religious imagery in the staging hits incredibly hard when the cultural mindset in serbia is one of "mental illness isnt real you just need to go to church"

#eurovision #in corpore sano #when i told one of my closest friends about my autism diagnosis her response was #'autism doesnt exist in serbia because we tell ppl to go to church and god helps fix their psyche' #and that 'in the west its different because they dont trust god' #if you have a problem that isnt physical it just means u arent believing in god hard enough #and with how few mental health resources are even available faith kinda does become the only solution #like i shit on england a lot but as an autistic person with adhd and anxiety im SO GLAD i only lived in belgrade for a few years #quasigh

Maybe this is a severe mental illness idk but ik other people do this so I wanna know. Do you ever imagine a character is with you while doing the thing your doing ( I.e sans undertale is with you while you dye your hair )

And if so. Do you imagine yourself as yourself… or another character ( ie uhhh u are sonic da hedgehog )

If you can please boost cus I’m really curious. Me and my friend feel like this is a common thing but it’s not talked about cus like…. It’s kinda weird ig.

#don’t backseat diagnosis me ok I am living and loving my life #uhhh #polls #poll #mental health poll #? #idk #ik I started doing it more during the pandemic #I feel like it’s like the brain coping with not having enough social interactions ig

Heyyyy this is your daily reminder that mental health diagnoses do not exist separate and alone, miles from one another in a desert. Mental health diagnoses, conditions, and behaviors exist in an enormous and insanely complicated venn diagram of traits. Many mental health diagnoses share traits with many other mental health diagnoses. Some of them share more traits with one another than others. It's an enormous 5D (or more) spectrum of traits and behaviors, and diagnoses are just a way of gesturing toward a particular area of that spectrum for the purposes of understanding and treatment.

#mental health #mental health diagnosis #this is why my friends have questioned whether i'm autistic #and i looked it up and was like #'no because i don't have ENOUGH of the traits to warrant a diagnosis. it's just trait overlap.'

dutch right after saying hes against the government and hates people in power: i have the biggest tent and a cool horse and i literally am in charge of everyone here btw

i'll die on this hill: it is NOT ableist for glass children to be resentful of their disabled sibling. you're not a bad person, you're not a bigot.

#eve's posts #glass child #glass child syndrome #ableism #especially when they or your family weaponizes their diagnosis #and this obviously is not limited to people with siblings with physical disabilities #tbh people whose siblings have adhd or autism or other neurodivergencies aren't talked about enough

[scintillyyy]

if they do bring back ives though, it should go like this:

tim: hey ives, it's been a while, how've you been?

ives: well, i survived tuberculosis, so i got that going for me-

#seriously though what is it with poor ives & everytime he gets brought back he has some awful diagnosis #first it was lyme disease. then cancer. #you know they never showed us ives catching the clench but i bet he got that too #it's like. ives and tim attending different schools for a while wasn't a good enough reason for them to have been out of touch for a bit #no the real reason ives hasn't been able to talk with tim over the past few months is he's dying #anyways it's not that ives has been ignoring tim he's just been in a sanitorium okay.

I got diagnosed with autism yesterday and honestly, the worst part is that i have something in common with elon musk

#the second worst part was having the doctor pondering if I am disabled enough to to be autistic #autism #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #asd #not actually yesterday #this is a draft from the day after my diagnosis #i actually got diagnosed multiple days ago #elongated muskrat

[coochiekrab]

Does kuri have any specific diagnoses?

She has disinterested psychiatrist blanket statement anxiety and postpartum depression. And if you want to get really into it she has cough variant asthma and at one point breast cancer

#she only acts like That because she was raised by a sociopath #and was very very sheltered #and i don’t think there’s really a Diagnosis for that #i don’t think you can really diagnose stupid either #I’ve always wanted her to be hard of hearing but idk anyone close to me who is which makes me not feel confident enough to make that canon

[jellyfish3s]

i love looking people in the eye until they look back

#thought i wasn't autistic enough when first started my self diagnosis journey because of it #but then i noticed that im fine with eye contact unless they're looking to my eyes too #then i go “NONONONO” and look away #danaë speaks #autism #autistic #actually autistic #autism spectrum disorder #actually audhd #autistic women #asd #actually asd #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #adhd #actually adhd

i want to see exactly how many people actually have thought i am for research because ive gotten this quite a few times from different people i just wanna see how far it goes

#please understand while im not doubting so much now im not going to base off everything by peoples perceptions of my online behavior but #i feel like it does give good insight #i just always have a little hesitation in me because i feel like no one can get a full scope or honest picture of myself to Know me enough #to say that i can trust their opinion of me without knowing me enough in that sense #gahh. cuz i always feel like im doing Just Fine Enough i feel normal enough but im not guhh. #GUHHGGGHGH #it literally wouldnt change anything for me. like im autistic . ok! shrugs my shoulders. i cope i cant to anything more to help myself #than that #do u guys get it. do i have to go eat bricks or do u guys get it. my internal struggle. im like sisyphus #i cant trust other peoples opinions of my and i cant trust my own perceptions #while of course self diagnosis is a wonderful thing i dont want to put a name on myself that serves me no purpose #autism is awesome but do i deserve that title when dont feel like i own it wether i am autistic or not #im just so conflicted. #do you get it. do you get me. am i being reasonable . am i just fighting a truth about myself or are my doubts realistic. but the Evidence. #im so tired #i do not wanna b one of those tiktok girlies saying theyr hyperfixated on cooking pasta #Now do you get me #all my long winded rabbit trail rambles out of me before i finally get to my one point condensed conclusion #and now i just cant delete the rest of my tags because of all my time spent on them #enjoy my indentity crisis lol #i Might delete some of these tags later

Hey btw having depression is not a requirement for being goth and if you think it is I don't like you. That's a whole chronic illness, not a part of your "goth mindset"/"aesthetic". Please reflect on that.

#“depression makes you introspective and deep” no it just makes you periodically think everyone wants you dead for varying amounts of time #and makes it hard to get up and go to work and eat and sleep and talk to people and do literally anything #if you have depression and you're goth I'm proud of you because being an active part of a subculture is dedication and time and energy #shit's hard. love yall #I understand it usually comes from a place of misunderstanding but don't romanticize people's disabilities pls #mentally ill ppl have it hard enough without you Doing That #goth #goth subculture #gothblr #gothgoth #gothic #I'm mentally ill btw I should clarify that. wont go into details abt it but #I'm speaking from a place of not wanting people to treat my trauma like a fun afternoon activity that you have to do to be goth #you can still relate to and enjoy plenty of goth music without being diagnosed with a chronic illness like major depressive disorder #like a lot of songs are just about concepts like heartbreak or periods of grief or introspection but those are things most people experienc #disabled ppl might experience them differently or more intensely but they're widespread experiences nonetheless. #you don't need a mental illness to “get it” it came free with your humanity actually. you can think/feel deeply abt shit without a diagnosi #I'll stop rambling though #goth music #goth aesthetic #gothcore #mental illness #mental health #depression #goth is about music

i think we need to remind people that being chronically ill unfortunately does not make you a health expert and statements like "long covid is just CFS" ignores the like 800 other long-term effects of covid that are grouped under "long covid" that distinctly aren't in line w/ PEM

#op #site culture #covid19 #my friend's immune system is shot after covid. he keeps getting food poisoning to an unreasonable extent. that's lumped under 'long covid' #the increased intolerence i have to physical activity now is possibly due to my covid infection. which would be long covid. but it's not #an intolerence the likes of PEM bc it quite literally has to do w/ physical endurance rather than 'crashing.' that's diff from PEM #but if it is due to covid - it would be long covid. & neither of those things are enough to warrent a cfs diagnosis #and evidence for the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in CFS is 'contradictory' not 'well-known' and 'clearly understood' #covid deniers being scientifically illiterate doesn't mean we need to be scientifically illiterate in the opposite direction

I’m sorry if this is really out of the left field but are you autistic? You give me the vibe

Oh my god Karen you can’t just ask people if they’re autistic

#Not officially but tbh this blog could be enough proof for a diagnosis #also like #tbh every person in physics is some flavour of something the Big Bang theory got that spot on #our mothers got us tested but there’s defo something up #asks #anon

[stop-ugly]

English is not my native language so I learn slang only by the context and every time i see the word "acoustic" it always looks like "autistic" in a very offensive way so

What the fuck is going on with this ableism trend of yours

#im sorry but it is incredibly offensive #folks were like “nah the word autistic is not an insult enough” #they always say it about “stupid” and/or “weird” people #it's so not ok but everyone says so and i can't argue with every fucking person #mental disability #mental diseases #neurotypical #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #psychotherapy #slang #autism #actually autistic #autistic things #i have a diagnosis so im valid #acoustic #ableism
