In my dreams, you lay your sorrow on the table, and the air between us is soft and we have time.
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.
not a stupid suggestion at all and once i have the finances i will most likely be getting my hands on one. i ran into a super cool cane a few years back at a thrift store that was wood-carved, but it was way too tall for me and i’ve been wanting a similar one ever since haha. a lot of my shame around my cane usage just stems from self-invalidation and feeling like i’m “not disabled/in pain enough” to justify using a mobility aid, which is something i’ve been trying to address and work through but i still have a long way to go. i appreciate the kind words and advice!
