Fuck this ruling and fuck the talk of coat hangers. In the US in 2022, it is possible to have a safe self-managed abortion using medication. Mifepristone and misoprostol are 95% effective at ending a pregnancy, and they're safer than Tylenol. bustle.com/wellness/expla… The greater risk is legal. If abortion is restricted in your state, @WoWabortionpill @AidAccessUSA @Plancpills can help ship mifepristone & misoprostol from outside the country. Local abortion funds can also connect you with clinics in nearby states that offer these services.

Deciding whether to take psychiatric medication is one of the most personal and potentially most fraught choices a person can make. And sometimes it's not a choice at all. I was honored to tell the stories of two women's mental health journeys for @bustle's series Me and My Meds. One woman grappled with self-stigma in addition to her postpartum anxiety. "I thought that if I took medication, then I'd be really ill. But I was already mentally ill. I was mentally ill regardless of how I responded to it or how I treated it." bustle.com/wellness/me-my…
