It’s May, which means it’s Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month!
Since it’s massively underdiagnosed, I figured this would be a great occasion to share some of my favorite infographics about this condition. (And for any of you who have been wondering why my personal posts here are basically all about medical mishaps and weird injuries: it’s because of hEDS and comorbidities.)
To any of my fellow zebras out there, we will make it through this!
i am confused about a bunch of people i follow. i thought that they were just emoji blogs? for aac symbols and stuff, but they are all fighting. i don’t understand because people keep saying that one person is bad but then they say they aren’t?
i love tangles !! i have so many tangle fidgets. i like to match them with my outfits.
i wish that i could get into other media other than mlp. it has been my special interest for 15 years, ever since mlp fim came out, when i was 4/5 !! i am interested in a couple other things, like homestuck, psychology, true crime, and disabilities. other than that, it is VERY VERY hard for me to get into anything else. i am horrible at starting new shows, and finishing them ! it makes me so frustrated because i would love to join my partner in her interests but i just get really bored and would rather listen to a true crime case i have already learned about 5 times or draw pinkie pie for the 1,809,263rd time.
let's lean with mama
why did nobody tell me that GERD was a chronic illness? i was diagnosed with GERD a while ago when i was very stressed out from high school, it flared up and i had to restrict things i was eating. it still flares up when im stressed out and my whole family has gastrointestinal problems-but i was never told that this is a chronic illness. i guess i never realized that this is a life time issue. when i’m feeling okay, i don’t need to restrict what things i eat as much but then ill have stomach issues that i just deal with bc i like eating my favorite foods and drinking my favorite drinks. idk just a ramble.
… you absolutely cannot support disabled people and support the police at the same time. the police routinely abuse and murder disabled people and are not only exonerated, they are celebrated for it. the police as an institution is antithetical to disabled liberation. there is no version of reality where a police state and disabled safety can coexist.
my favorite colors are light sky blue and bright saturated purple !!
I am a grown ass adult and I still get nausea when I feel like I'm in trouble. They're gonna send me to the principals office and take away my toys for a week. Can you just fucking kill me instead of making me stew in my fucking anxiety
