As a creative my mission is to have people living w/ invisible illness authentically represented in television & film. My character has been living w/ #sjia Join us & view the "screening.” https://t.co/b0YT8wyWdi…/register/WN_vJ5Cc_LATIOsKDk0BWsf9Q #spoonie#ms#ChronicPain#eds
@ibdgirl76 I understand rural communities were targeted & that is only 1 lens in which 2 view this issue. Kaitlyn Dever’s arc was fraught w/ every stereotype the “opioid crisis” cld have & than some. Such a typical way 2 show #ChronicPain
@ibdgirl76 Did the Sackler family do harm? Yes. Is the show itself causing immense harm 2 ppl in need of these meds? YES. Tired of 1 sided view. When is OUR voice heard? Our story told?
I don’t know if the act of writing my book was healing, but it being out in the world is. Specifically, I’m changed by the astonishingly loving feedback I get every day. Contrary to the popular narrative, the most traumatized people can be the kindest and most generous souls ♥️♥️
The conflation of health and disability by @CNN and @andersoncooper is poor journalism. If they don’t understand that one can have a disability and not be in poor health, the network should at least invite someone on who does. #ableism
