hey if u can’t drive/are a slow learner due to a disability or mental illness, just picture historical figures like pirates or the founding fathers trying to operate a car.
it’s only “easy” bc we’ve normalized it.
it would be great for neurotypicals to reblog this
I didn’t get my license until I was 26 because of my mental health struggles. Just sayin’.

This is a really helpful page in my CBT textbook for tackling some of the maladaptive beliefs we often hold. The first column lists the rules and assumptions we often may tell ourselves, while the second column is a more functional belief. Just thought I would pass this along. Be kind to yourselves, friends❤
Oh my god, number 5. And 6, and 7.
I frigging needed that.

Soulmates are not your ~other half~, that’s just nonsense. You are a whole person already, not half a person. A soulmate isn’t even inherently romantic. A soulmate is just the other sock in a matched set. You’re still a whole, complete sock on your own, you are perfectly functional paired with any other sock, it’s just that it’s even better when you match. A soulmate is literally just the person who makes your soul go “!!! Same hat!!!” and wave excitedly.
i love this
this is literally the only interpretation of “soulmate” that I can tolerate or accept
if youre too scared to drive because you are consumed with uncertainty and fear of what to do and youve convinced yourself that youll mess it up and seriously hurt or kill yourself or others and this leaves you dependent on other people and makes you feel like a useless piece of shit clap ur hands *clap clap*
i made this post two years ago and i wanted to make an addition: as of now i have my license and i can drive without being afraid! i wanted to say that for all of the people reblogging this because they relate. i used to be DEATHLY terrified of driving; i would burst into tears just getting behind the wheel and i couldnt drive on the highway because i was so scared
it took a lot of time, patience, and practice, but i hope this maybe gives some of you hope that you too can conquer your fear. there was a time it seemed absolutely impossible for me, but it DID improve. and i believe in you. i believe that you can do it! push your limits slowly and safely. maybe it takes months, years, but theres a light at the end of this tunnel

this post is circulating again….pls reblog this version instead if u can!!!
If you’re straight, write stories with gay characters, but don’t write stories about being gay. That’s not your story to tell.
If you’re cis, write stories with trans characters, but don’t white stories about being trans. That’s not your story to tell.
If you’re allistic, write stories with autistic characters, but don’t write stories about being autistic. That’s not your story to tell.
If you’re neurotipical, write mentally ill characters, but don’t write stories about being mentally ill. That’s not your story to tell.
If you’re able bodied, write stories with disabled characters, but don’t write stories about being disabled. That’s not your story to tell.
If you’re white, write characters who are POC, but don’t write stories about being a POC. That’s not your story to tell
Write stories with diverse and complex characters, but unless you’ve experienced the oppression that we have, don’t write the stories that we need to tell ourselves.
