ugh, that feeling of stuck panic but no actual moving is the worst.

hey. look at me. if you think you have a low pain tolerance because things that don't seem to bother other people much (headaches, period cramps, walking a certain distance, etc) hurt you enough that you have trouble functioning or need a break or just want to curl up into a little ball and stop because it hurts too bad or it's distracting you? that's probably not you reacting more strongly to the same amount of pain. you're probably experiencing more pain than everyone else, and you shouldn't ignore that, because you deserve medical care and support

And here you are, continuing on, despite how hard it's been lately. Proud of you.

"It doesn't matter if you're autistic, people will dislike you if you don't act normal-" yeah we noticed. The problem at hand generally isn't that we don't know that people judge individuals who fail to fit in, it's that fitting in isn't always a choice people can effectively make

btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

Just called a bagpipe a “bother bag” and i feel like i should be awarded for that

Let us award OP with many many notes

I love rebloging. It’s the adult equivalent of showing everyone the cool rock I just found.

ok but legitimately i think the reason why kids aren’t taking internet safety seriously is because the people who are telling us not to put our personal information out seem so out of touch. no one acknowledges the possibility of meeting very real teenaged friends online, they always say that everyone you meet is a 40 year old white man in disguise. because they aren’t acknowledging things we know are true, it becomes a lot easier to dismiss the rest of what they’re saying as well. internet safety lessons absolutely must keep up with the times and acknowledge the internet’s capacity for good if you want kids to take to heart warnings about its capacity for bad.

To my followers: if any of you guys are underaged, please be very VERY careful on here, and don’t fall for any of the tricks the groomer would use on you, just block them and report them.

One skill that you pick up in abusive relationships is how to phrase things very, very diplomatically. Like I don't need to imagine what it's like to be a vizier to a mercurial tyrant with a hair-trigger temper; I've lived it. Not recommended.
