What Helped My Autistic Son Cope With Hurricane Ian
Florida offers its residents hundreds of miles of warm sandy beaches, an abundance of oceans, lakes, and swimming pools to keep cool and thrilling theme parks. But there is a tradeoff to this lush, tropical paradise—hurricanes. And while hurricanes are stressful for anyone living within the cone of trajectory, for individuals with autism, the disruptions in routine and potential for devastating outcomes mean that stress can rival hurricane-force winds.

What Dating With Trichotillomania Showed Me
I’ve lived most of my life in deep shame around my trichotillomania, especially in romantic relationships. In most partnerships, I attempted to hide my condition entirely. It felt easier to pretend than face possible rejection. That’s how disconnected I was from my sense of self-worth. I believed that I was a freak, that no one could actually want me if they knew the truth about me. Four years with my college sweetheart, and he never, ever saw me without my eyeliner on. I’m sure he knew something was off. How could he not? But he never asked.

15 Mental Health Stories You Need to Read in Time for Going Back to School or College
It’s that time of year again — we’re in the midst of the “back to school” season. It’s a stressful time no matter what stage you’re at — whether you’re sending your kid off to school, or you’re heading to college. Making it all the more stressful, though, is living with a mental illness. Making new friends feels impossible when you struggle with social anxiety. (Believe me, I’ve been there.) Making it to all your classes feels impossible when depression makes it a chore to even get out of bed.

It is a big decision to come out publicly about issues that impact you deeply as it relates to mental and physical health. Telling your story on social media is another level of disclosure that could come with some amazing rewards for you and your readers, and life-altering consequences. A lot goes into the decision and should not be taken lightly. Social media makes us vulnerable and can cost us mentally and physically. I am always inspired by those who chose to do it.

5 Tips to Become Your Own Chronic Illness Advocate
For a healthy person, it seems so easy. Go to the doctor they check your temperature, maybe do a strep culture, and *bam*, you have your diagnosis and treatment plan. They prescribe you your medication and you’re on your way. For people with chronic illness, it’s a bit different. Sometimes your blood work comes back totally fine, and your body feels otherwise. The doctor will say “you’re the picture of perfect health, go on with your life” when in reality, there is more to the picture.

Burnout Threatens Our Mental Health, but a Four-Day Work Week Can Save Us. Here’s How.
Our capitalist society has a burnout problem. As many of us work 40-hour weeks (or often more) for inadequate pay that fails to meet the rising costs of living, and employers guilt us into taking less paid time off or even calling in sick, we are collectively feeling the strain. And yet, while we pride ourselves on our “hustle culture” and the supposed positives of working longer hours for diminishing health returns, hustle culture also impacts the disability community and simply isn’t congruent with a healthy lifestyle. We’ve been collectively brainwashed to believe that more work means a more fulfilling life, and it simply isn’t true.

6 Coworkers Who Helped My Mental Health
We spend a significant portion of our lives in the presence of our coworkers. If we work for eight hours a day, that’s almost a third of our lives, and half of our waking hours. Based purely on time spent together, we can have a significant impact on one another’s mental health. We all have examples of that terrible colleague that stresses us out or makes our blood boil, but it can go the other way too. I’ve been lucky enough to have some phenomenal coworkers over the years, ones I would consider friends today, who have helped my mental health whether it was intentional or not. Seemingly small actions can end up meaning a lot to someone, whether we know what someone is up against or not.

How a Wellness Check Showed Me the Danger in Having Police Respond to Mental Health Crises

9 Things People With Chronic Illness Need From You
Chronic illness is a challenge, period. It’s a challenge for those who live with the illness on a daily basis, for caregivers of the ill person, and for those who are involved with the person outside of the home. Chronic illness often leaves those in its wake feeling frustrated and helpless. The ill person struggles to live daily life with the symptoms of chronic illness, and friends and family are limited on what they can do to help the ill person. To make matters worse, those of us with chronic illness are often hesitant to ask for help from others due to feeling burdensome, and are frequently at a loss ourselves as to what may be helpful. To help all of us, here’s a list of things we need from you due to chronic illness.
