My ADHD (dopamine processing disorder) affects my ability to be happy. Pain sticks with me; loss, anguish, loneliness, longing, those I feel today as strongly as I did when I was hurt. Happiness I can’t seem to remember, or retain. I know it has happened, but it’s not “with” me.
My relationships with animals are so important, because I don’t feel my RSD with Bosco. RSD is part of my ADHD that makes me feel like everyone hates me, and they should, because I’m unbearable. Bosco is my best friend because people scare me.
Losing him now, is honestly an all time low, because I don’t have much that makes me feel ok. I am in such a happiness deficit that I want to die. Not suicidal, I just don’t care to exist.

I’ve stopped taking my meds, dieting, exercising, or even wanting to engage on here.
Because everyday I’m realizing more and more, how painful, and miserable life is, and how everything I love will die.

He’s barely moving today.
I’m just exhausted from loss. Absolutely worn down to a nub. This is a section of the year when I can’t stop thinking about my sister and dad and other loved ones, that I’ll never see again. And he was just always with me, through it all, and now I’m losing him.
I can’t even feel comfortable crying in front of my husband and kids because I feel awkward and like I’m making them uncomfortable. So I’m in the restroom trying to just stop crying.
Get control of yourself, dogs die, it’s just what dogs do. You’re a grown woman for god’s sake. Just ovary up and handle it… I keep saying to myself, while bawling.

My disability thread is important to me as a mom of a a person with disabilities, a sister of a person who had disabilities, and as a daughter of a person with disabilities… as well as a woman with learning disabilities.

Life is incredibly hard for people who aren’t typical.
I don’t want to exploit Alexander for some crusade as he will inevitably become a target of people who lack empathy, and critical thinking skills. I have seen it happen online before.

Living in this world and having to see how easy it is for everyone else is painful for him.
I’ve seen him cry because of his disabilities, I have held him and had to tell him he will never get better. There is no cure for cerebral palsy. It is a static condition. I told him at least he wouldn’t get any worse, but then he developed epilepsy. A curse that runs with CP.

Well it’s disability pride month and I would like to discuss how we mistreat disabled people in America… strap in. This is going to be hard to read.

Let’s start with sexual assault. Disabled people are 3 times more likely to be sexually assaulted than abled people.
Disabled people also don’t have the ability to marry people that they love and keep their disability benefits and free healthcare. They have to choose the person they love, or their ability to have their medical needs met. Because in this country, they can die if they lose ins
A bankrupt millionaire can keep their mansions and cars, but a disabled American isn’t allowed to have more than 2000 dollars in assets. They are forced to live well below the poverty line, or they lose their insurance and disability payments.

There’s this audio of Tom Hiddleston reading that I found relaxing and so I listened to some more clips of him reading but they were of the naughty variety… and I did not know that going in… so, that was cool. Water, please… ALL THE WATER.
It started like this. Nice and relaxing… and I was GOING TO SLEEP
Then I went to the next one… and now I’m never sleeping again.

I love men, I honestly do. My empathy overflows for almost everyone I meet. I’m defeated by rape culture in America. I hope you can understand that. I’m mad, and I have reason to be, and I’m going to get into why. I’m this thread. So strap in. ❤️
We tell rape victims that they have to come forward, because if they don’t they are responsible for any more rapes that the rapist does, because they could have been prevented… but that isn’t true. Over 80% of rape cases that lead to an arrest end with the rapist serving no time
The rape tests are invasive, hours spent with your recently violated body, exposed and examined, while you’re forced to relive the trauma over and over again. After all of that degrading and painful work they don’t get tested. It’s just theatrical for no purpose.

Humans can be insecure creatures that hop around looking for a shoe to lace up, and when the shoe doesn’t fit they scream about how it’s not for them.

Not all men rape, not all white people are racist, not all cops kill, we know… why is it so hard to just stfu?
When I hear people speaking about white women being Karens I don’t yell “NOT ALL WHITE WOMEN!” I just think about all the Karens I know, and nod in agreement. I know I’m not a Karen so I don’t have to tell people that it’s not all white women.
It’s all about insecurity. You feel as though because of your sex that people assume you are a rapist. That’s just not the case, generalized statements do not mean all. It’s literally just because 95% of the people who are rapists are men…

I have RSD attached to my ADHD. It is the reason why so many people with ADHD commit suicide, and I just wanted to explain how it manifests. I am not a doctor but if this sounds familiar, you may have undiagnosed ADHD, and you may want to see a professional.
That last interaction is what has lead me to believe that no one actually likes me and that if I had the ability to see their private chats they would all be talking about how awful I was. So I try to just leave people alone so I’m not a burden.
I don’t want to push myself on to people. I assume if they really like me they will put forth all of the effort to be near me because if I do it… they’re just being polite if they respond, but they secretly hate me.

My brain berates me over every interaction.
