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.
Any fellow Autistic folks know how to “focus” what I “hyperfocus” on? I realize I’m feeling useless not because I am not doing anything, but becausey brain decides this week is “sort the Pokémon cards” week. If I hyperfocus on my work it’s great, but when it’s other things I inevitably feel guilt and shame.
I’m afraid of being chronically unemployed & unhirable & a failure at life 😬
