✨NEW BLOG POST✨ Neurodivergent relationships thrive when we stop forcing neurotypical expectations on them Blog link below (or follow link in bio) #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #relationshipgoals #Ontario #Prismaticcompassion prismaticcompassion.com/blog/f/unlea...

I’m here to tell you: You’re not to blame, and you’re not the failure. You are being failed by your workplaces due to profit over people and by systems and leaders who keep letting them get away with it. #mentalhealth #burnout #toxicworkplace #toxicworkenvironment #profitoverpeople

In case there is any doubt at all about what’s happening south of the border. Let’s vote to stop it happening here Canada?

Much typical ADHD/Autism training is done by neurotypical people based on neurotypical one-size-fits-all therapy models, rooted in pathologizing unnuanced DSM5 criteria. So, support based on a nuanced, lived experience is so important ✨ #mentalhealth #adhd #actuallyautistic Video @pocket.macro

Burnout is rampant, & recovering from it means overhauling & unlearning unhealthy messaging & societal ways of being, combined with more self-compassion & less judgment, to make living more sustainable & enjoyable. Hustle culture is not our friend! #therapist #burnout #mentalhealth

It’s effing tiring to see the rates of SA, harassment, & personal violence still happening without much consequence. Therapy can only do so much, & things seem to be slipping backwards. I will keep speaking up. How you vote matters, so use it wisely! #therapist #advocacy #mentalhealth #ontario

ADHDers are often so good at remembering all the mistakes, even from years before, but it’s much harder to pay attention to, acknowledge, and celebrate the wins. These can be big or small, and they’re so important! #adhd #audhd #ontario #celebratethewins #giveyourselfcredit #mentalhealth

If you’re ADHD/Autistic & want to understand what might be contributing to sensory overload, how this relates to bottom-up thinking, & how this differs from neurotypical top-down thinking, then read my newest blog post! Website link in bio 🔗 #adhd #autism #adhdawareness #autismawareness #audhd

Never stop raising your voice for what is just and right.

Exactly! 👏

Having chronic health issues can be taxing in so many ways, including on our mental health. Can you relate? #mindbodyconnection #mentalhealth #chronicillness #invisibleillness #spoonie #chronicpain #medicalgaslighting #loneliness #anxiety #therapist #barrieontario #ontario #prismaticcompassion

Autistic burnout is extreme long-term exhaustion and overwhelm triggered over time, where the stress of coping with life’s demands exceeds the autistic person’s ability to cope. They may lose the ability to carry out everyday tasks, lose skills they usually have and increased sensory difficulties.

After they targeted trans people in 1933, they targeted the disabled: in 1939, Hitler authorized a euthanasia program, a thinly veiled attempt at eugenics In 1941, this program became the model for the death camps They target the smallest minorities first and then escalate: that is the playbook

We don’t realize how impactful emotional neglect in childhood years can be on our mental health and well-being as adults. Recognizing these patterns is the first step to healing and rebuilding self-worth 💛 #EmotionalNeglect #InnerChildHealing #mentalhealth #selfesteem #trauma

I’m sure many of us can relate. It’s been quite a time since the beginning of the pandemic, and it keeps coming. Know that it’s okay to say you’re not okay. All we can do is support each other and do the best we can 💜 #mentalhealth #trauma #uncertainty #anxiety #therapist #itsokaynottobeokay

This isn’t shocking - Willpower peaks & falls. Society would like us to believe that it’s just a matter of pulling your socks up, but from having worked as an addictions counsellor, I can say that if that were simply the case, we’d be all “cured” by now. #addiction #smoking #mentalhealth #Therapist

If this is true..

This is the reality! So many women and AFAB folx suffering due to lack of up to date medical training, knowledge and research regarding menopause and women/AFAB health in general. Menopause impacts mental health, too! #menopause #mentalhealth #perimenopause #mindbodyconnection #therapist

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Growing up w/ untreated ADHD is absolutely a complex traumatic stressor-- meaning people who are finally, correctly diagnosed w/ ADHD in adulthood very often have to learn trauma recovery skills & tools as well. Luckily, everything you do to recover from trauma supports managing ADHD, too.

There’s a lot of anxiety & uncertainty happening today, not just in the U.S. but across the world. That’s where helpful emotional anchors can come in. They won’t necessarily solve the problem, but they can help ground you. #mentalhealth #copingskills #findyouranchor #therapist #ontario #mindfulness

Whether you live in the U.S. or Canada, this is relevant based on what’s happening tomorrow. Community is everything 💜 #LGBTQ #TransRights #marginalized #marginalizedvoices #womensrights #humanrights #mentalhealth #findyourcommunity #communitysupport #communitystrong #therapist #ontario @hrc.org
