Bitching about MS and probably wrestling with my shadows while trying to build a new lifestyle amidst crippling depression in the capitalist patriarchal mind f*ck we exist in. Recovering from chronic people-pleasing and toxic positivity.

I have been trying to build something (albeit half-arsed) and I have *too many* options. Stalled by thoughts of "this part doesn't align with that part+this skews that...and, and, and..." Nothing will get done if I wait for shit to align. Really, have I learned *nothing* in life? getouttamyownhead

I am going to do the shit that scares me the most for the next year. More #gutcheck. If it opens in my heart but tenses in my chest, I will do it even though I will be vulnerable. And scared as HELL. #howtocope #mswarrior

My body’s not a temple. It’s a rundown amusement park operated by raccoons on meth. No refunds, no safety checks, just vibes.

This beautiful crocheted Richmond minimal surface - crafted by Hanne Kekkonen (who we had the honour to feature already: 📖 hermathsstory.eu/hanne-kekkon...) and featured in [📄] - is a perfect example of how mathematics and arts intertwine. 1/9

I don't have a lot of words these days. Well, I do, but none of them are nice, and they deserve to be shouted, not typed. Inspired by events from last week. Stay grounded and rage on. #artastherapy

I don't know if I am more shocked by the execution by firing squad, or that it has only been 15 years since the previous one. Next up: GUILLOTINE

Waking my teenager up for school feels like coaxing a 🦝 out of a bag of french fries.

Crocheted ancestral healing and inner fortitude into my new blanket. The internalized shame yarn makes me break out in hives. #crochet #shadowwork #MultipleSclerosis

MS is having your child crying because they don't understand why you "get to lie around all day." I hate this fxng disease. I barely have enough bandwidth to simply *exist* on some days, nevermind explain to a kiddo so she understands. It feels like failing #MultipleSclerosis #InvisibleDisabilty

My MS diagnosis really exposed the fact that my Imposter Syndrome applies to my entire life. I have always felt just one move away from "exposure" for my very existence. As if there will be a collective realization that I don't deserve to take up space. #InvisibleDisability #MultipleSclerosis

I had a vv (very very) productive day yesterday. That means today I am xx (d e a d). I have always been an all-or-nothing being, but the extremes are getting a little ridiculous. #MultipleSclerosis

I have to stop eating like I am in my 20's. My entire intake today was coffee and 4 pieces of the greasiest most processed pizza I never dreamt about. I dream of sweet potato and cucumbers. Roasted beets and radishes.

'Cultivate Optimism' I have to do it for my girls, to show them that there is a world that contains hope and grit. The line b/t depression and self-care is RAZOR thin these days, and it is essential that I am mindful of the difference. To that end, I am going to shit post about it here. 🦋🍃🌻
