Keto was made for kids with epilepsy, so why on earth is it advertised losing weight? For @damemagazine, I wrote about how dangerous it has been for medical diets to be mainstreamed as “weight loss” solutions. damemagazine.com/2022/09/16/med…
Diet culture is bad, and medical diets, which can be helpful for specific chronic health issues, can open doors to another deadly problem: Eating disorders.

CW: MAID

"They make euthanasia in Canada sound like agency," @KristaCarrNB of @InclusionCA said about how medical assistance in dying is being used in Canada. Experts are concerned that medical assistance in dying is being offered as a solution to inaccessibility/wait for care.
@KristaCarrNB @InclusionCA @KerriJoffe said MAID now operates in Canada with the assumption that disabled lives are "less valuable than others." "
@KristaCarrNB @InclusionCA @KerriJoffe "They are pressured into medical assistance in dying by social and economic inequality, a lack of real alternatives to live with dignity in the community, or a lack of medical services." – @KerriJoffe

cw: mental health

Need people to realize that many people with aggressive chronic illnesses are passively suicidal due to symptoms/access issues, and messaging re COVID that are lives aren't worth protecting is creating a very dangerous environment for our mental health.
I don't want anything to push me over the edge, but society makes me feel like a burden and it sucks.
I haven't laughed in years. My intrusive thoughts are often quite bad. I don't want to feel this way. I hate it. Hate it. Hate.
