you aren’t a bad person for recognising things that are causing more harm than good and distancing yourself from them.

gentle reminder for you and me ✨🖤🔑

The greatest gift I could ever ask for is any opportunity I have to sit down with @butterflyinthewell to talk about Godzilla, neurodiversity, & fan fiction! Check out our recent episode of Growing Up With Godzilla!

We had a blast. 😁

Clean the mold out of your reusable water bottle including the cap and straw

Mold poisoning will kill you and has a high chance of causing severe hallucinations and nightmares while it's doing it. My final message goodbye

Oh, hey, yea that's a good reminder! Wait a second tho

A year or so ago I saw someone who studies bacteria on food surfaces talking about how she never ever uses a water bottle for longer than 2 days without washing it with hot water and soap or running it through the dishwasher and I've become really adamant about it ever since. Everyone has enough water bottles to keep them cycling through the dishwasher and in use.

Also please don't die.

Yup to all of this, but also, if you read this and went “lol, I have too much ADHD for that - do you know how many water bottles I would actually need to buy?”

I need you to listen closely, right now

Yes, you might, in fact, need to buy a mountain of water bottles

“But the plastic-”

There comes times when disability, sustainability best practices, and your health cannot co-exist

And you cannot stop being disabled

You might need to not only buy a mountain of water bottles, but also keep prepackaged single use water bottles for emergencies when every surface of your house is covered in reusable water bottles that haven’t been cleaned, and you find yourself asking “what’s the harm in using this one for one more day?” for the seventh day in a row

Or going “well, I’m not that thirsty anyway” and stopping drinking water altogether

Don’t make yourself ill holding yourself to standards you cannot meet

Denture cleaning tablets are your friends, people who like stickers on your water bottle! They are dead cheap and in conjunction with a bottle brush, they clean effectively.

I buy single use water bottles. I'm disabled and individual. I do wash in hot water but I also am good friends with a microbiologist who likes to infodump Fun Facts about food and bacteria

I gave up on my reusable water bottle when I started to get sick to my stomach once a week. Cramping, diarrhea, bloating, etc. It stopped once I went back to my regular water bottles again.

Btw yes I was diligent about washing all the parts inside and out, and I still kept getting sick until I switched back to disposables again.

As always, I’m happy to make graphics if anyone has a quote they’d like me to use :)

𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌 𝒐𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖, 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖.

A little progress is better than no actions taken at all. You got this, love. Your future self is cheering you on. 🤍

good morning from South Africa 🍃🧘🏼‍♀️

one day you will wake up, and live your life without some constant ache in your chest. one day you’ll look back at the angry, sad, lonely, desperate journal entries or suicide note drafts and realize that you can barely remember what it felt like to be consumed with such anger and sadness. because even though you may not be where you want to be just yet, you’ll be better. your scars will have healed. your heart will have healed. you will have healed.

and i promise, that day will come for you, no matter how impossible it may seem. all you have to do is hold on.
