Me right now

I had a sleep attack in the office at work. Everyone just thought I was taking a nap- luckily I was sitting but the way that I fell, my neck landed on the edge of the table. It’s a pretty sharp edge, and I think I was sleeping for arpund fifteen minutes. It hurts so bad to swallow, my head is pounding. I don’t know how I was breathing or if I was getting enough oxygen. I don’t know for sure but I think every time I swallowed, my neck pressed further into the edge of the counter. I’m so sick of being sick.

I’m not sure if I already uploaded a pic, but I got my medical ID bracelet fixed- it was way too big, and when my dad tweaked it he loosened the clap to much and it kept coming undone. The local jeweler fixed it for free, though!

over fifty thousand unironic, uncritical reblogs. a handy reminder that neurotypicals don’t want to accomodate you or stop treating you as abnormal. fuckers.

Speaking as a sufferer of depression/anxiety:
It’s unnecessary and attention-seeking. Get over yourself

your comment is entirely unnecessary 

It’s actually useful; it’s a way of letting people know so they can better accommodate and understand you. 

Imagine This: What if I didn’t tell anyone about my narcolepsy, and instead I let them panic and worry when I have a sleep attack? No? That sounds like a bad idea? Yeah, it is a bad idea that endangers myself and causes unnecessary stress for those around me because they don’t know and can’t help me because of it.

The same is true for mental illness.

I also have OCD, which I list in my profile. It lets people know there’s a reason for things I do that could be misinterpreted ((I like almost every post, even things for fandoms I’m not in or depressing personal posts; I complain about things that trigger my OCD and could come as rude if the context is not there; I am a generally paranoid person that has to do things a certain way, etc.)). It provides context that will help people to better understand me and for me to interact with others better.
