‘Fake It Till You Make It’ Doesn’t Work With Chronic Illness

Instead, the options are: ‘Fake It Till You Are So Ill You Can’t Get Out Of Bed’ ‘Fake It Till You Have A Flare’ ‘Fake It Till You Have A Flare, Continue To Fake It Till You’re Hospitalised‘ OR ‘Accept That You Have One Or More Chronic Illnesses, Adapt Accordingly And Look After Yourself’

Reblog if your illness does define you

Reblog if your illness has shaped your outlook on life and the world.

Reblog if your illness has warped your perceptions of people and social situations.

Reblog if your illness has altered some of the most fundamental aspects of your personality.

Reblog if your illness has impacted all of your relationships, and even been the reason for the beginning or end of some.

Reblog if your illness is often the cause of your moods and emotions, and affects nearly all of your moods and emotions in regard to other things.

Reblog if your illness has changed the strength of your virtues, from compassion and tolerance, to perseverance and determination, to gratitude and generosity.

Reblog if your illness has been a part of your life for so long that you honestly can’t differentiate the parts of your identity that are influenced by your illness from the parts that aren’t influenced by your illness.

Most importantly, please reblog this if you’re okay with your illness being on the incredibly long list of things that define you. Reblog if you don’t feel like your identity has to be completely undefined by your illness in order be valid. Reblog if you don’t necessarily like the parts of yourself that come from your illness, but don’t think that makes them any less you.

As much as it seems like it should go without saying, there’s an overwhelming amount of pressure (mainly from well-meaning abled people) to say that your illness doesn’t define you…but something that you experience all the time, every day, in every facet of your life, yeah, that’s going to have an impact on you, and it’s not wrong to admit that. It’s not even wrong to embrace it. Your ‘normal’ is under no obligation to resemble that of people who live in different circumstances than you do.

I hate when I tell someone about my chronic illness and they reply with “I hope you feel better soon”

Um

What do you think chronic means

Shoutout to the people who:

-have symptoms that aren’t visible to others

-are able to function even while in extreme pain

-hide their illness well

-who don’t “seem sick”

-who have flareups at night or other times when no one else sees

-fight a daily battle that others can’t see

-feel like they’re making too big of a deal out of their illness because “it could be worse!”

I see you out there, I feel you, you’re awesome.

The Avatar series could potentially make 2 more shows after Legend of Korra with an earth nation avatar and a fire nation avatar and I for one would not protest.

Avatar could come full circle and do another show about the next Air Nomad Avatar (someone who was different from Aang) and even another one about the next Water Tribe Avatar and so on and so forth and I would not protest. 

Avatar could do another show about another Avatar centuries before ATLA or another avatar thousands of years after and go out of order and tell any story in any era they want and I would not protest.

Avatar could make literally any other show about the avatar universe and I would not protest.

Avatar could make a show about the cabbage salesman and I would not protest.

Just here to say

April deserves so much more as a character who has been on the show for years. To play her off as going insane and probably having a mental breakdown due to a crisis of faith is a shitty thing to do. The Greys writers should be ashamed of themselves for not giving her character the dignity she deserves to exit the show in a respectable manner considering how much she has given to the show. Thanks for coming to my TED talk

6 Surprising Effects of Narcissistic Parenting – Were You Ever Affected?

There are as many parenting styles as there are people, but there are some broad characters into which these styles can be divided such as narcissistic, authoritative and authoritarian. In this article we will discuss some of the effects a narcissistic parenting style can have on children.

What is a Narcissistic Parenting Style?

Narcissistic parents tend to be very possessive over their children, and this parenting style is sometimes also referred to as helicopter parenting. Narcissistic parents often feel threatened by, or even envious of, their child’s growing independence. Consciously or unconsciously, these parents believe that the child is there to fulfill the parents’ wishes and needs. You might think of a certain pushy kind of soccer-mom or pageant parent. This parental behaviour can have far-reaching effects on the child.

1. Self-blame

Children of narcissistic parents often think they are the problem. Because the parent only had attention for their child’s mistakes and their own problems, the children start blaming themselves. This can also function as a self-preserving mechanism to hold out hope. “If I fix myself, the situation will get better. If I do well, my parents/carers will be nicer to me.” Children that have been raised with a narcissistic style are often…..
