Hello everyone, I’ll be hosting the megathread while un_mask_me is out.
I completely forgot I had to post it until just now.
As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
Same here. All the therapy I received just consisted of being told to write lists of why I shouldn’t feel depressed or anxious and look at those reasons when I feel bad, or draw a picture of what I’m feeling today, or do a pointless guided meditation. Absolute rubbish and like you I only continued with this crap for the full 6 months to help my benefit appeal.
