No fancy OP this time because I am running on E! I'm definitely not a couple of days late! This week's person of interest is you, dear reader. Tell this fat frog lady all about your lovely selves this week. Tell me what makes you laugh and what brings you joy in this hell on earth we call home.
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.
The sticky notes do work for me when I'm very overwhelmed, in fact I just use some of those little tiny ones you use to highlight sections in a book and don't even write anything on it. I often put one on the door knob while thinking "remember to grab the X you need today" and I'm not allowed to remove it until I physically have it in my hand. I also try to dedicate a specific place for all the things I need and collect them, or a "token" for them, in that place. Like if I need to remember to bring something like pasta salad with me which has to stay in the fridge, I'll put the serving spoon on the table instead.
All this stuff sounds like the kind of advice people give you, and you think "if only it was that easy" it isn't so easy but it's all you can do you know?
I don't tend to "forget" exercise when I'm on top of it. I start feeling really antsy when it's my "day" but if I can't exercise that day for whatever reason that's inevitably when I fall off. The 2 feet of snow certainly isn't helping right now.
These are great additions dustbunnies thank you <3 You got this too!
