girl who is sitting in a chair quietly with a neutral expression actually screaming very loudly in her head
one of the guys in the kitchen at work got called irritating and replied “I am not irritating. You just find me irritating. There are many people who love me.” I think we should all adopt his attitude
Being chronically ill in your 20s is stupid you have to see your peers like “started a family🥰” “got married😍” “bought a house😇” “scored a promotion😋” meanwhile you’re fighting for your life to take a shower
Knock it off and take it easy!
Minimal symptoms and minimal pain doesn't mean overwork yourself to make up "lost time".
"quick meal for when you're low on spoons!" *involves chopping vegetables* *uses a stove* *includes condiments* *involves letting something set/rest/simmer* *requires multiple kitchen items that will need to be washed* *estimated prep time: 30–45 minutes*
choosing to allocate spoons to hanging out and having a good time at the cost of perfectly completing all your work is not a failing it is in fact an act of survival. “too sick to work = too sick to play” is in fact ableist bullshit that you don’t have to buy into. and the fact that leisure time is treated like a privilege is a fucking travesty
the thing i have discovered about being an adult is that every week you will have to spend 100 dollars.
Signs of Autistic Burnout

Unpopular Opinion-
I’m sick to death of people telling me I’m “brave”, “strong”, “a warrior”, “a fighter”.
I am not- I’m just a person who never had a choice.
Survival is not strength. It is forced endurance.
