Hello! Sorry for the late mega last week. How are my disabled comrades doing?
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.
Pretty severe fawn/freeze response. I'm not sure knowing the words has helped though, and my therapist says that I need to work on my alcoholism before anything else. Also, he completed ghosted me last session
not a therapist, but my understanding is that this is bad practice; because often addictions stem from other problems, refusing to work on the underlying issues at the same time is often ineffective/counterproductive.
