My husband went to register our twins at their new middle school today. The counselor hesitantly asked “Is…Mom…in the picture? Because moms usually do this.”
MOM IS BUSY LEARNING HOW TO BE A DOCTOR AND THEY ARE JUST AS MUCH HIS CHILDREN, OMG WHAT YEAR IS THIS??
When you’re Autistic and/or ADHD, it can be hard to determine whether you’re in love with someone or hyperfixating on them, or both. Here’s how I differentiate between love and hyperfixation - 🧵
Introverts are good writers because they've been refining their inner dialogue their whole lives and have imaginary conversations with people on a daily basis.
Most relationships taught me the more chances you give ppl, the less they value you. They aren't scared to lose you bcoz they know no matter what, you won't walk away. Never let anyone get too comfortable with disrespecting you. Love yourself and choose distance over disrespect.
As a white woman, I ask my clients who are not white, "How is it for you to have a white women therapist?"
You may or may not be surprised at how many times people tell me that no white therapist has ever asked them this question (pretty much every time)
