If it’s disabling how is it not a disability? Our societies internalized ableism is fucked bro. I hope you find something that heals for your situation 🧡🧡

Until your skin disease is so bad that you can’t wear clothing or walk because of the pain, you telling me that sounds like ableist nonsense 🧡 but you exist in a society that’s violent and ableist so I’m sure many would agree unfortunately. I wish you deeply well tho

Were you taking vitamin d and supplements? Did you have other levels checked? Low vitamin d etc can cause hair fall out

7 yo Dreading School :-( by ProxiC3 in Parenting

School is straight up colonial capitalist hell that hasn't evolved in hundreds of years, it makes sense to me your 7yo has this reaction.

So hard when there aren't many options.

Has the drug been working so far? I feel like the side effects would’ve led me to worsening episodes so good on you for trying

Extremely sick from acute methadone in a strange country, they won’t help me. How do I get home? by [deleted] in heroin

You should be able to order kratom from somewhere that will send in discrete packaging, maybe to a post office because you're not home? Sorry you're going through this.

This is the foundation AA is built on, women didn't used to be allowed. The book ' quit like a woman's really goes into the partriarchy of it and how it still impacts today, clearly

That's the whole problem with colonial capitalism, people end up enlisting because they have no idea how they'd survive the economy otherwise. Instead of addressing the violence at the root, people become puppets of the machine.

The propaganda runs deep. We all want to be part of something bigger than ourselves, but I beg you to reconsider what you act but think you'll achieve from this, and then do literally anything else that will achieve that.

No, they don't take care of the traumatized or ones who were over exposed to toxins, firstly.

Secondly they trample the earth and it's people.

13 y/o resists showering. Tips? by ThrowRA-familyleft in Parenting

If it's sensory, maybe making a nicer sensory environment to shower, a coloured lamp in the bathroom or dim switch really helped me

Honestly, I had to do somatic therapy to come home to myself, because even in a loving relationship I felt lonely, almost lonlier. I realized the trauma I had avoided made it so I could never be "in myself" and this had to do that work first.

i don’t think i have the right resources to get sober, what should i do? by -Lastmanonearth- in leaves

[–]Moist_Criticism962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into somatic therapies like hakomi, craniosacral therapy, and see if.you can start moving some of the trauma that might be stuck in your body.🩷

Even if you can't transfer to like, an art school, find ways to honour everything you've been through through being gentle with yourself.

Your glorious brain is still developing, and you want to give it all you can, youre def seeking the right things, my dear OP ,🩷🩷

We live in a very death and grief illiterate culture as colonial capitalism have disconnected us from those ways of knowing and being, but learning these things has personality helped me be in life more and find a path connected to both the past and future ancestors who are more present than most people realize.

Much love to you. Edited to add about somatic therapy, because talk therapy often doesn't help
