also sorry for flooding your inbox like this but i’ve been thinking like crazy about how disability and mental health can be so together like, i have chronic fatigue and also depression, and they make each other worse, like i know im not alone in this but i never see people talking about how physical and mental health are intertwined
Absolutely! The way mental and physical disabilities feed into one another is so inherent, and it’s so rare I see it talked about.
~~maybe I’ll make a post about it when I actually have the energy~~.
At bare minimum we have GOT to acknowledge that bad mental health makes it so much harder to care for your physical body’s needs, and that having physical disabilities makes it harder to take care of your mental health!
Sending good vibes to you!
