Rejection sensitivity is central to ADHD, autism, and cPTSD.

Mental health services rarely understand rejection sensitivity, which is why people in all three diagnostic categories are so often told there is something wrong with their personality.

Therapists: facebook groups are public forums. They are not contracted peer supervision spaces. Do not share client details there, even with 'permission'

Mental health is affordable housing. Mental health is free healthcare. Mental health is paid sick leave. Mental health is free education. Therapy can only do so much when living in a system that creates sickness.

Oh, you dog-ear pages to mark your place? You must be some kind of absolutely fine reader with your own methods that work best for you and it's your book anyway and you can do whatever you like with it. Good for you, enjoy your books.

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.
