There's still a lot of misinformation spreading about avoidant attachment so I'm going to do this ONE TIME.

Let's demystify the avoidant-leaning attachment style for those of you who lean more preoccupied anxious really quick.

Avoidants - you might want to share this thread with your preoccupied leaning partners if it feels true for you & helpful for them.

Being a woman dealing with serious health issues often means being afraid of telling the truth about the pain you’re in because you’re afraid of not being believed or seeming attention seeking. He validated that fear to thousands of women.

There is a very specific female fatigue that comes from knowing exactly what is happening, explaining exactly what is happening, being told you are overreacting, and then watching exactly what is happening happen with excellent punctuality.

Here are 13 subtle signs your body needs support, not more discipline:

1. You want people around you and you want them gone — at the same time.

@avsimplificada @bluewmist Whoa… that last sentence might be the most motivating thing I’ve ever read.

@bluewmist I now follow a rule that if there’s something I’ve thinking about doing non-stop, I must do it. I must do it to free myself from the thinking.

[blue @bluewmist]

if you're scared to do something but think about it often, it's probably the exact thing you need to do to unlock the next chapter in your life. embrace the fear, welcome the change, and go after what you want with full force

Most men will never realize this: A lot of relationships are only lasting because women are tolerating daily disrespect.

You can’t claim there’s no intent when the behavior continues after it’s been addressed.

One of the loneliest experiences in the world is trying to explain your feelings to someone who has already decided they're not interested in hearing them. You speak carefully. You try to be fair. You try not to accuse. But the whole time you can feel that the conversation ended before it even began.

I think one of the reasons pacing is so hard and takes so very long to learn for ppl w/ ME or long covid PEM, is bcs when you have those rare windows of time when you feel a little better, it conjures up a lifetime of experience you had prior when feeling better during illness meant you were getting better and that you could thus do more.

You have to override this previous lifetime of experience and reign in your instinct to do more. You have to remind yourself it is an illusion/ facade.

Even after nearly 4 years, when I have a day that I feel a little better, I suddenly get hopeful and think maybe the improvement will continue! But it is inevitably followed by a crash.

@Favwontmiss I’m not seeing the link in your bio but would LOVE to!!

There is a massive loophole in the medical system, and it is a patient's absolute best friend. It is the patient portal. When a doctor dismisses your symptoms or refuses a test, you do not have to argue or cry in the exam room. The exam room is designed to put them in a position of power. Instead, you accept it calmly, go home, and use this exact strategy to shift the legal liability right back onto them.

People will tell those with chronic illness:

“Your health comes first.”

Then get upset when you start acting like it does.

@SolidEvidence I genuinely appreciate that you’re doing this work, but do you think you would consider rethinking the joyful tone a bit? This won’t be a fun game to the people at risk from it.

If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this.

Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how.

Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:

Everyone always talks about how burnt out caregivers are when taking care of a disabled person but hardly ever mentions the burn out disabled people experience just from being disabled. It's a never ending burn out. We don't get breaks from being disabled, it's constant.

@PaganScribe @recovery_your Yes. I’m so sorry.
