Why are neurotypicals always so quick to pathologize others but at the same time are against self diagnosis?
Like it’s OK for some random anon to tell me I’m delusional/should take meds/should go to a doctor but not for someone to do a lot of soul-searching, research, self-observation, reach out to others with similar experiences and then come to a conclusion about how to label their experiences in order to deal with them better?
Why do they think subjecting people to involuntary “exposure therapy” when they’re not even anywhere near certified therapists (”I don’t believe in tagging triggers”) is OK but not people self-diagnosing as a first step to deal with whatever issue(s) on their own terms?
Why do they keep falsely asserting that a behaviour/belief that they don’t like is always pathological (”If you told your doctor this they’d lock you up”), but if someone sees a problem with one of their own behaviours/experiences it’s never OK to “self-diagnose” that?
Why do they keep insisting that a condition they don’t like isn’t real at all and at the same time pathologise those who have it? Or concern-troll about how baaaad those “fakers” are for “people who strugle with real mental illnesses”?
I find that anti-self-dxers tend to advocate relying on an external source for validation because that external source is somehow completely objective (in reality, everyone is biased, including professionals) rather than someone using their own best judgment. That’s scary because that attitude can enable abusers to gaslight.
Also, I have a problem with the title implying it’s only neurotypicals who do this when I have also seen a lot of neurodivergent people do this too. I find that this attitude is often a case of internalized ableism.
You’re right, that definitely happens as well!
when i saw this i couldn’t believe it didn’t have music
I hope to one day exude as much raw energy as this man does.

a-trashcan-made-out-of-fandoms:
It is an unspoken rule that if a little kid is hiding under a blanket or couch cushions, you are required to comment on how lumpy the blanket is and pretend to sit on it to try and “smooth it out.”
Also, if you’re playing hide-and-seek with them, it is critical that you search every other possible (and impossible) hiding spot, all the while wondering out loud how they managed to disappear just like magic, before walking right past their hiding spot.
And if a baby starts playing peekaboo you are required to act surprised when they show their face again
If a kid hands you a phone, you answer it
If a kid shoots you with a Nerf Gun you are supposed to Die a dramatic death and explain “ugh you shot me blaahh”
when you push a kid on the swings ya gotta do the woosh
I literally just blocked about a dozen people on this post for being cranky about children.
Being a joyless shitbeast to kids isn’t cool. They’re kids. If you want to be Oscar the Grouch, that’s fine, but do it in a way they understand and explain it to them.
“I don’t want to play, I’m grumpy. Thank you, though, that was kind.”
It’s literally not hard. Kids are small people. Treat them with common fucking decency.
yooo life update
had eye surgery at the beginning of last month and i’ve had to cut down a fuckton on screen time, problem is i have to use that screen time for job searching first and then i like video games so tumblr hasn’t really been my priority and basically my queue is empty
also being unemployed i have more free time than i know what to do with. considering how much free time i currently have, no longer spending all of it on the computer is a. better for my eye and also b. better for my overall focus and being able to attribute spoons where they should go lol
i haven’t left tho! i still come here and check my notes and messages and stuff every saturday but i might not be actively posting or refilling my queue for quite a bit yet. we’ll see how things evolve i’ll keep all y’all updated
hope all y’all are doing ok!!
