when it comes to treating and healing under the broad spectrum of mental health, one size does NOT fit all. If affirmations give you hives, and forced positivity makes you roll your eyes so hard you strain your optic nerve, then you've come to the right place my friend. In this house, the treatment plan is liberal use of sarcasm and dark humour, a fuckton of rude words, and a soupcon of rage for flavour. Insight focus on the “in”, not the “sight”, and worksheets are worth the paper they're printed on. Patient - heal thyself! For the physicians surely won't.
this includes all of the things i have bought since my asd diagnosis which help me when i'm feeling overstimulated and need some sensory time with fidget toys

All of the things I am using or will be using to support my Hidradenitis Suppurativa management journey. Did you know that it actually has nothing to do with hygiene? Apparently thats a widespread belief and I guess I can see why but its actually an autoinflammatory condition that involves hormones, the gut and the immune system.
Did you know that most supplements are duds? Well I have well over 4 years using them and these are my tried and true supplements that work! (Please ask a medical professional before you start anything, I am just a lady on the internet, with good intentions.)
natural herbal supplements for immune system health, gut health, mental health, and healing hormonal & inflammatory acne :-) these systems are ALL inextricably linked!! so supporting one system will inevitably support the other systems and i truly recommend everyone to take all majority if not all of the supplements i recommend. these recommendations are only of the highest quality, as it is EXTREMELY important to use only high-quality, organic supplements, i know it can be more pricy, but the cheaper ones often have a lot of junk in them and are not as potent in the supplement, thus making it ineffective. some of the best brands that might not be organic but are still good quality, and most affordable are “nature's way," “solaray”, and “NOW”

As someone who is in her 60s I pay a lot more attention to my self-care. I can remember waking up the day I turned 40 and wondering why my vision was getting so blurry! Of course I look back and laugh now because that was my first sign that the aging process had started to kick off. Today, I know that even the little things like a pain in my hip can't be ignored. Btw - I no longer suffer from blurry vision after having cataract surgery on both of my eyes. Don't laugh 😂 One day you will understand and even if that day has come for your too, hopefully you will get inspired by some of my self-care routines.
