sick of trying.

very telling how many people use "go to therapy"/"seek mental health care" to mean "never make me have to see you or the thing you said again." wonder if this implies anything about the cultural role of psychiatric medicine

If you are white and cis and don't have a visible disability and no criminal record, and you fall under the labels of depressed or anxious or even maybe bipolar, you will almost certainly be fine. But if you are not white, and you are angry at the way the world is, or if you have been caught up in the horrible machine of the injustice system, if you don't like that mood stabilizers make you feel like shit and detract from quality of life, it is so, so fucking easy to end up with "homicidal ideation" or "treatment non-compliant" or "aggressive" on your chart. That will follow you forever. It will be held against you for forever.

I don't have a morning routine. I wake up on straight survival mode.

to be clear. even if those particular phrases weren’t ableist in and of themselves. inventing an ableist bogeyman who goes around Doing Ableism because they Don’t Understand Shit just isn’t a helpful response. on any level. ableism is a system of oppression with its own internal logic and reasoning. it is not a few people who don’t know better, and framing it that way takes away from the ability of disabled people to talk about the actual roots of our oppression. so maybe think about that also
