There’s gotta be a better way of talking about fatigue cause I’ll be standing there in the fucking trenches like thousand yard stare and I explain this as “I didn’t sleep well last night.” & everyone’s just like “lol that’s Sleepy Kurt! Why don’t you go to bed earlier” I’ll kill us both

I’ve never slept well in my life I’m haunted by visions this is a symptom of like five different things wrong with me and nobody takes it seriously because all I can say is “I’m tired” if I had enough energy I would snap one of these days

you need to get it out of your mind that psychosomatic illness is just “making up symptoms” when it’s actually much more like your body is being actively poisoned by chemicals released from your brain

if you’re so stressed that you’re puking your guts up every morning, are unable to eat or keep anything down, you can’t look at light without feeling infinitely worse and feel exhausted and in pain all the time (or whatever your particular stress induced symptom set is) you’re not just feeling like that because you’ve willed it into being. your body is begging for relief from the constant barrage of stress hormones and it requires the fundamental source of stress to go away, not just distracting yourself from the symptoms

just because the root is psychological doesn’t mean the result isn’t an entirely physical process.

What people really don’t seem to grasp a lot of the time is that psychosomatic and psychological illnesses are still physical.

Your brain is not some esoteric manifestation of the fundamental self which can necessarily be controlled by force of will. It’s a lump of meat coursing with electricity generated by a chemical reaction.

Every thing you have ever thought, felt, or perceived was a reaction between chemicals and electricity in meat. All of them can be influenced by messing around with the chemicals and physical structures of your brain and body.

I have ADHD because I have a connective tissue disorder which caused an error in the way my cells built my brain and the receptors in my brain for norepinephrine aren’t quite right. My entire personality is caused by the fact that the collagen in my brain is fucked up.

also while i’m ranting about gender i always see debate about whether girls are rewarded for being tomboys or not and it’s like. actually girls are rewarded for mirroring whatever the situation demands of them. girls can’t be too prissy and refuse to play in the creek, but girls also can’t show up to girly events covered in mud. girls can’t have makeup art as a hobby or else they’re superficial, but if they never wear makeup they’re a slob and dumpy, etc. it’s not that girls are universally rewarded or punished for being tomboys, they’re rewarded for bending over backwards to always be exactly right for any given situation and punished for breaking those boundaries. so yes a classically pretty girl who cleans up nice is rewarded when she can ALSO be a tomboy. but a girl who is a tomboy all the time is definitely punished for never being able to achieve that prerequisite feminine side. this debate is over now thanks

this is spot on. A woman’s masculinity is rewarded as long as it doesn’t conflict with being heteronormatively attractive and as long as the masculinity plays harmonising second fiddle to the masculinity of the men around her.

Essentially the goalposts for girls and women move situationally and based on who wants what because at the end of the day under patriarchy the only correct female presentation/behavior is “what is demanded of her/obedience”

the most powerful universes are sense8 and pacific rim. i’m sorry, but if your characters aren’t thrown together due to circumstance and forced to know and love each other intimately before combining powers and saving the world then what’s the point

Jennifer’s body is not a horror movie. it’s a love story between two girls. that’s just how girls are you wouldn’t understand.

expressing love by giving them the bigger half. learning about a topic they’re interested in so they have someone to discuss it with. listening to their music and making them playlists to connect with them. remembering the little details they mention in conversations. little actions that show so much love.
