If you carry one thing with you today, let it be this: you are beautiful, you matter, and you are loved.
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.
I hope they keep working in your favor, comrade. Mood swings and stuff around that time can be absolutely wild. I’m glad you got something to that seems to be working.
lil bit of personal over sharing to relate
It makes me anxious wondering if it’ll catch up to me like that too because I get huge cysts around my cycle that sometimes burst and even had a partial ovarian torsion. My doc said hormones would be on the menu if the cysts continued to be a problem, so I appreciate you sharing because I have been putting it off with the hope the stuff I’m already on will keep me sane and comfortable enough to function. Really hope it continues to help you too.
