The different types include:It’s nearly impossible to deceive a person with highly attuned empathic tendencies.These people can see your true intentions even when other people can’t.

It’s been 10 years since I had a stroke. A whole decade. That’s about 1/4 of my life. That’s 10 years of walking with a cane, being an emotional basket case, and being disabled. I’m now married 21 years, my kids are teenagers, and I’m “retired.” Things sure are different.

I am a proud disabled business owner. However, I have not always been. Being a bubble girl is not a badge of honor I wanted to wear. To be frank, I found my disability shameful and embarrassing and wanted to hide it. I desired to be seen as a whole person and not “broken.”

Are you a parent of a child on the autism spectrum? Are you sick and tired of hearing about Star Wars from your kid? Like, you’re on the verge of tearing your hair out if you have to hear one more thing about that one random dude sitting in the Mos Eisley cantina when Ben and Luke were there making a transportation deal with Han Solo?

With the reversal of Roe v. Wade, discussions regarding how this will impact the lives of those with a uterus have been swirling. It goes without saying that this decision has far-reaching implications that many of us haven’t even thought of. One of these involves the ways in which changes will be made for therapists and therapy in states where trigger laws have gone into effect and abortion has effectively been outlawed. The American Counseling Association issued the following statement on June 24, 2022:

Whenever I read an article after someone dies by suicide, I see a common quote: “I didn’t know they were going through a tough time.” I have depression and anxiety, first diagnosed in January 2016, and over the years I have noticed my signs, or my tells, of when I’m going through depression have changed. I’m a quiet person, but with my first year of depression I become so quiet that people were genuinely surprised I talked or had the ability to smile. Now, you wouldn’t know I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety.

Usually when someone says “drink plenty of water” — or anything along those lines — I pretty much roll my eyes. I mean come on, it’s common sense, right? So why did I cry in my truck after I left my cardiologist, just because he said “it’s important for you to stay hydrated.”

I want to talk about how burnout impacts me and my body with endometriosis. Despite all my best efforts to stay within my usual health baseline, it doesn’t always work and there are days I can accept that more easily than others.

Fibromyalgia is a condition largely marked by widespread, chronic pain. I find that sometimes my pain gets so severe that I consider going to the emergency room to find some relief. Unfortunately, going to the emergency room for chronic pain can be difficult. In general, individuals are encouraged to reach out to their primary care doctor or another medical professional on their team when they are experiencing such intense pain before considering going to the emergency room. It has also been advised that all individuals with chronic pain work with a chronic pain specialist. It is important to have this physician on your team if at all possible so that you have someone you can go to when you are experiencing severe pain without having to go to the emergency room.

When chronic illness poses a threat to your identity, it isn’t easy to reach acceptance of who you are. The person you used to be is no longer, and the person you’d like to become is unknown. Being diagnosed with any chronic illness alters our reality — past, present, and future.

The irony that I’m writing this story after testing positive for COVID-19 and being in isolation for three days is not lost on me. That wasn’t quite the angle of the story to begin with, but my current state of health has reinforced the underlying points I had intended to make about maximizing good days in anticipation of the inevitable and unpredictable arrival of those days where doing anything seems impossible.

My dreamscape is vivid, almost lucid — a tapestry of places I’ve been and seen and only imagined, but somehow recognizable even in the depths of my dream. I’m in a strange house, but I know it belongs to a close friend. I shouldn’t be there, I think. I try to leave when I see the window open; was it me? Had I come in this way? But I know it isn’t, because I look through the house only to find her, lifeless. She’s been murdered. The killer is out there. I jump through the window and run over the hills and fields that overlook my town, broken over the death of my friend. That’s when I hear the police sirens behind me; they think I did it. They’re coming for me.

June 9th was my first Pride parade! It was also my first Pride parade being out as bisexual! In addition to these exciting things, I attended with the first person I came out to. It was a really exciting day and I’ll hold onto these memories as the time I fought back against my struggles and reclaimed my identity.

“We can all make powerful choices. We can all take back control by not blaming chance, fate, or anyone else for our outcome. It’s within our ability to cause everything to change.

Explaining it to them helps when I have an open, honest relationship with them.” — An ADDitude Reader“Grocery shopping always made me feel physically ill and I needed to lie down and sleep for hours after every shopping trip.

Emotional dysregulation smacks into all parts of teen life – from friendships and romantic relationships to school performance and even social media use. The latter is particularly troubling (and increasingly unavoidable), especially following reports linking Instagram use to poor mental-health outcomes for teen girls, who cited body image problems and even suicidal thoughts in a 2021 research study, according to The Wall Street Journal.Though a powerful medium for connection, social media use may have a real, negative impact on teen mental health, as ongoing reports continue to show.1 Cyberbullying, exposure to extremism, and manipulation (sexual and financial) are risks inherent in online use, as is addiction that stems from an over-reliance on online relationships.Emotionally dysregulated teens – already more sensitive to peer rejection and acceptance than are neurotypical peers – may be particularly vulnerable to these risks and effects of social media use.The first step to protecting teens from online relationship risks is to understand how ADHD and emotional dysregulation impact all of their relationships – IRL and on their phones — and then arm them with healthy strategies for working through their very big feelings.

The availability of energy in many rural areas across the globe has been constrained or dependent on pricy, toxic generating units. But as nations work to expand their electrification for supporting economic development simultaneously lowering their carbon pollution to achieve environmental requirements, the use of off-grid photovoltaic panels energy systems is rising.

The results you can realistically expect depend on multiple factors, including the size of the parts being treated, the volume of excess fat in the targeted spots, and how much excess fat you wish to have removed.

Many slurs are a hard “no” to say— we know how they’ve been used to undermine minority groups and understand why we shouldn’t use them. Disability slurs, however, don’t receive the same negative press as words that harm other minority groups, so they’re often regularly interspersed in our conversations. If you’d like to change your phrasing to be more mindful of the disability community’s history and challenges, here are 10 common terms you may not know are disability slurs.

I have fibromyalgia, so I have dealt with “fibro fog,” but I have memory loss now, which is different. I would explain “fibro fog” as feeling like a cloud that descends over your mind.
