Argh! I just got my 12 part assessment back, marked, and everything is great except for one section which I have to redo. Apparently my brain didn't interpret the question properly. I think the sentence might be grammatically incorrect. It is very confusing and not concise, if it's the case of not meaning what I interpret it as.

The teacher has given me instructions on what it is, which is great, but now my brain hurts and one of my schemas has been triggered. I think I need to go meditate, or slip into an hour-long coma, something. Argh!

#JordanKlepper goes back to a #TrumpRally to further explore the depths of #MentalIlness 🧠🤢 in the #DarkMAGA cult. 👉 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/jordan-klepper-trump-supporter-conspiracies_n_63d9d276e4b0c8e3fc81552b

@punklion No one deny that #depression is a #mentalIlness that is physically like any other health issue, that's a point.

Now, what lead to that brain dysfunctioning is not only inherited, but socialy too, and to be honest being much more intelligent than the common can lead to isolation, and social difficulties, that naturally developed a depreasive state of mind, that need medical and therapeutic treatment.

@maia Good on you for sharing Maia. It's so important to share and be heard with #MentalIlness even though it's one of the hardest things to talk about.

I'm recovering from #MentalIllness so understand the struggle and the exhaustion it causes. but you don't have to fight it in silence. There's definitely a community on here. Embrace it 💖

Sigh. #GenderDysphoria and #OCD collide in tiny constant explosions in my brain as I go back and forth between using #ACT and #EXRP. When are we seriously going to consider how problematic it is that practically no one seems to care that trans people with serious #MentalIlness have unique needs #cis people are unprepard to treat? We need tools in conjunction with affirmation. We need tools for intrusive thoughts even before we tend to the wounds your cisnormative world leaves once we're down.

DBT is really unaccommodating for autistic people because there’s this rule that you can’t describe your emotions using “judgement” words. You can only use the five senses. It’s really frustrating because when I say that my brain feels “infected” I am not judging myself, I just have no other word for how I am feeling. DBT has a lot of really harmful aspects in general, that’s just one I’ve never heard anyone talk about.
