4weeks ago I learned I’d had a stroke. Please learn the signs of a stroke. I have included the post I’ve linked. You are never too young. https://t.co/rJeGTiUhrB

@denisehotze @HollyStallcup It was indeed that. A balm after a hard day indeed. ❤️

You didn't "just" make it through this year. You made it through this year. There is no "just" in that. It is miraculous and hard fought.

@madewell, “size inclusive” also means having clothes in your store that I can try on since you don’t except returns on most sale items online. If you say you are size inclusive, show that plus size individuals are welcome in your store. Today, I wasn’t. Do better.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

The vulnerability of walking into a store not knowing if any of the clothes will fit because you are plus size. Only getting to try on 4 items (2 only because I’m close-ish to “normal” sizes) out of the whole store is not a good experience. Tears happened.

Here’s a seasonal reminder that weight loss is not always good, even for fat people.

A quick tip for how to comment on other peoples bodies is to not do it.

Keep all your thoughts about the physical appearance of others out of your mouth and have a happy holidays!

@preshiate If you still need help, let me know!

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

Maybe one day I might become ready to talk about what the past few months were like, but for now it was the fight for my life and jumping back into “normal” life is really scary.

I had to take FMLA a couple months ago due to deepening depression. I became non-functional. Treatments that had worked in the past stopped and time had to be spent finding and completing other options. I go back Monday and have LOTS of anxiety. Please send light and love.

@HollyStallcup Do you need anything now? Did you get it? Too late?

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

My mental health has been suffering for an extended time and I feel like I’m stuck in the fight for my life. But really, I’m very tired of fighting. Any spare amount of love or encouragement you have to give would be appreciated.

Psychiatric services are emergency services. They should not be an area where it takes over a month to get in with a doctor when one is in crisis.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

Trying this again because I’m a little desperate.

—Any twitter people have experience with ECT or TMS? Please DM if willing to answer a few questions or chat.

Please RT if you feel so inclined so this can reach more than my followers.

I often don’t have an appetite, but logically know I need to eat. Even warming up food feels like too big of a task sometimes. This would be how someone could care for me.

How to support a friend experiencing severe depression: gift cards for meal delivery service or their favorite restaurants that have to-go.

If you ask what your friend needs and they respond with “nothing” or “I don’t know.” This is a simple answer to your own question.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

Your encouraging thoughts, prayers, and support would be much appreciated.

This week I’ve admitted that I am not a machine. That I’m not all powerful. That I’m not okay. I’ve filed for FMLA/short-term disability due to my staggeringly poor mental health. This week I’m pushing against the stigma that mental health challenges are different than physical.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

I’m not sure what the next few weeks will hold but I’m working to accept that I am worth taking care of even if it means giving up some responsibilities.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

Trying this again.

[Hannah Liz 🏳️‍🌈 @han_elizz]

Anyone in my twitter world have experience receiving ECT or TMS? Or know someone who has that might be willing to chat? DM if so.
