I kept going, sorry everyone
Ok, that’s the last of them. Thank you, sorry and good night
Self Diagnosis
So apparently it’s time for another self dx info post because people are gross
INFO:
basics
- self diagnosis isn’t looking at one post and going “hey thats me, im autistic”
- self diagnosis includes research and introspection
- self diagnosis of multiple disorders is reasonable - comorbidity is common (see: autism and ADHD, ADHD and SPD, many personality disorders with each other, though more than one is rarely diagnosed due to overlapping traits)
- self diagnosis doesn’t take away resources from anyone
- the only people who don’t take a disorder seriously “because of” self diagnosis don’t take it seriously anyway
- the DSM is available online
- it doesn’t matter if they’re wrong - if they’re self diagnosing it’s because they had a problem and the resources and coping mechanisms within ____ community helped them.
re: doctors
- many doctors refuse to diagnose
- a lot of these reasons are racism and sexism
- some traits/symptoms are internal and are therefore not seen by doctors
- doctors diagnose based on behavior. people self-dx based on.. behavior.
re: racism, classism, sexism
- many poc (especially black people) are diagnosed with “being {race}”
- many people who are perceived as girls won’t be diagnosed because {sexist reason such as ‘girls cant get autism’ - yes thats a real reason people have been denied diagnosis}
- going to a professional is expensive. it doesn’t matter if you were “obviously _____” or not - it’s expensive.

dont any of you dare forget this gem i quote this daily
Couple new paintings gonna be popping up in the store. Mostly little 4″x6″ gouache experiments.
Also, big apologies to anyone waiting on a reply to a message or email. I’ve kind of been lurching from minor crisis to minor crisis for the past several months – nothing a competent adult shouldn’t be able to handle, but you’d be amazed how old you can get without ever coming close to being a competent adult, haha.

The Need to Stay
(Thought I’d upload my recent comics to Tumblr! I totally forgot it only lets you upload 10 pics at a time, and this is 11, but fingers crossed it works!)
Rulebreaker
It’s more of a pussy out kind of year
sick of how the old prophecies always leave out key details tbh. they’re like Yea Þere Will Come Þe Yeare Of Pusseye Outte but never add (Because Ye Shall Nevere Leave Yon Abode For Feare Of Þe Ravaging Plague) it’s such bullshit.
