I have never thought of myself as a victim, but I have recently recognized that I am a marginalized member of society. That’s right, after spending almost my entire life feeling like I didn’t fit in anywhere, I realized I am among a group of people who live on the edge of society.

Three groups, in fact. 1) I am a woman. 2) I am a gay woman. 3) I am a disabled gay woman. I am quite confident that our current administration wishes I didn’t even exist.

Ah but alas, I do exist, so here I am trying to figure out where I can be the most useful and helpful as well as comfortable in this world.

Because You Can't See My Disabilities, Here's What Else You Can't See
When you look at me, you’d have no idea I was anything but a relatively young, financially stable, healthy male (even if some who see me in public think I am an “Islamic” terrorist, but that’s another story for another day). If you talked to me, you might think I was intelligent but hardheaded. You might think it rude of me to be so blunt (I’ve been called “challenging”). After all, you don’t really know that much about me if you’ve never met me before so all you have to go on are your expectations, hopes, dreams, fears, insecurities and the norms we have been taught.

Mental toll of self-isolation can be severe | Contemporary Pediatrics
Much of the focus on COVID-19 research has understandably been about discovering more about the disease, finding treatments to help save lives, and creating the vaccine that will mean the end of the pandemic. The toll of the current home confinement on children has been less studied, but a new research letter published in JAMA Pediatrics provides some information, using students from the Hubei province in China.

When I Feel Awkward Wearing a Mask During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Today I went to the store for the first time in a few weeks. I sat in my car for a while as I tried to find enough confidence to put on my face mask and walk in. I watched the shoppers entering and exiting the store. Once I saw others go in with their mask on, I felt a little bit better. I am protecting others by wearing one, so why does it feel so uncomfortable?

When Your Disability Means You Can't Stay Six Feet From Others
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the entire world in different ways. Economies have ground to a halt. State and nationwide lockdowns have been issued. Many hospitals are at capacity and they do not have enough staff, personal protective equipment, nor ventilators/respirators that are required to save those infected with the virus. The CDC has suggested simply staying home or remaining at least six feet apart when interacting with others, also known as social distancing. This suggestion might seem easy to follow, but for people like me, practicing social distancing is not possible.

Why I Believe More Books About Disabilities Need to Be Published
Like many people, I’ve enjoyed reading for as long as I can remember. Reading has always been a passion of mine and it was part of the reason why I decided at a young age to write a book. Throughout my years of being a bookworm, I have read many books that have inspired me to write more about my life experiences with cerebral palsy, including “Of Mice and Men,” by John Steinbeck and “Forrest Grump,” by Winston Groom.

Teaching Kids to Care, Not Stare When They See Someone With a Disability
As a parent to my 17-year-old daughter and a disability advocate, I have had the opportunity to speak to many types of groups — many of them with an audience of primarily women and/or moms. I have had a question come up repeatedly from mothers of typically developing children that I feel is so very valuable, and the subject needs to be brought to the surface.

COVID-19: Feel Better Now
In some ways, the current pandemic has been like a global tsunami, hitting hard and creating massive turmoil. In other ways, it has been like a real-life horror movie, with people experiencing persistent and rising distress, panic, and confusion. Many are frantic about what might happen next. The result has been a spreading anxiety that is as contagious as COVID-19, and that needs to be slowed.

Facing the Truth About Traveling as a Young Disabled Woman
Ever since I was a little girl I’ve had a deep craving for travel. It should have come as no surprise — my mother would constantly talk about the aches she would feel in the core of her stomach when watching Stacey Dooley shows or reading books set in an idyllic French summer. She described it as a gnawing, a pain she couldn’t quite soothe. My grandmother was nicknamed “Gypsy” by family members and friends, as she could never stay in one place for very long. Even after losing her tongue and teeth to cancer, she still manages to talk excitedly about a new trip in her travel brochure. I’ve grown up with a strong female influence from women I loved, heavily feeling the pull and lure of adventure.

The Light Through Postpartum Isolation
The coronavirus pandemic is making clear that many of the ways of living we considered normal and never second-guessed were not really serving us. It has been known to maternal mental health professionals for a long time that our modern family and social structures leave parents disconnected and without enough support. This puts way too much pressure on immediate caregivers alone, increasing feelings of loneliness and stress and thereby increasing the risk of developing postpartum symptoms. Sheltering in place is profoundly underscoring this unfortunate reality.

Many Young Adults Leaving Foster Care Feel Unprepared to Manage Their Mental Health

Yes, Psychologists Feel Like Crap, Too
Last week, I was speaking with one of my patients with two young children. She confessed that she has been nothing but miserable during the pandemic and doesn’t believe others are as unhappy as she is. I assured her that many, many others are as unhappy as she is, but she remained unconvinced. She eventually asked me, “Well, what about you? I mean, your job is to make people feel better. Are you unhappy right now?”

How I'm Emerging From Depression, Even In Self-Isolation
I’ve spent the last four weeks holed up in my own head, like a bear hibernating against its winter. I’ve been scared, worried, depressed, anxious and emotional. I hid from it all, beneath the pillows of my bed, in front of mindless television, inside the confines of my little home while it’s been raining. This is a winter none of us could ever have predicted.

Learn Right Now! 7 Secrets to Engaged Online Learning for Students with ADHD
Online learning has its perks: namely, more flexibility and less anxiety. But for struggling students, the absence of face-to-face communication, verbal queues, and emotional connections can cause school motivation and progress to plummet. Robust, project-based, experiential learning — not learning by passively listening and reading — is best for ADHD brains. That is largely impossible in quarantine, so what can parents and educators do?

Unhappy Couples and their Flaw Fixations
Leo Tolstoy famously opens his novel Anna Karenina with the words, "All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Statisticians have derived from here something they've come to call the "Anna Karenina principle"—roughly, the idea that success in any enterprise requires that everything go right: remove a single important prerequisite, and your endeavor will fail. [1] Say the preconditions of success are A, B, C, and D.

Why Being Disabled Is My Full-Time Job
In a capitalistic society such as the one we have in America, frequently your worth as a person is measured by how much you “produce.” Sometimes that means selling products, or working at your job, while other times it means accomplishing things, such as housework and/or childcare. I’ve found that because of this mentality so many people seem to subscribe to, those who are home due to disabilities fail to ever live up to the expectations of productivity that many people expect from an adult.

How CBT Dismantles ADHD Negativity: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Overview
After a lifetime of mistakes, mishaps, and missed deadlines, is it any wonder that adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD or ADD) suffer dangerously low self-esteem and perpetually negative thoughts? Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a short-term, goal-oriented form of psychotherapy that aims to change these negative patterns of thinking and change the way a patient feels about her self, her abilities, and her future. Consider it brain training for ADHD.
