"Recognizing that we maintain agency fuels hope, and maintaining hope reminds us that we have agency.Resilience comes down to a few core factors: leaning into community, being kind to yourself, finding small routines to support your mental health, allowing yourself to feel sadness and loss and yet maintain hope at the same time. It requires a commitment to taking productive action."https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/opinion/tragic-optimism.htmlBehind a paywall?

Three good things I've been thinking about:1. Sometimes I am grateful, and sometimes I am not. I am finally learning that both parts are allowed to exist.2. Yesterday was a "green" day. I listened to stories, I learned, and I felt the pulse of my community. 3. I sat by a waterfall with a friend and shared the literal pages of this book—the project I hope to publish someday. She told me the words were healing and inspiring. Her encouragement gave me the fuel to keep going. We are helping each other process the weight of being human, one page at a time.#community #friendship #gratitude #ingratitude #mentalhealth #threegoodthings #3GoodThingsToday #3goodthings

Since I changed my med dose, I've been getting more unsettling dreams every night. Is this how I would normally dream with little to no drug influence? How fucked up is my mind really?#mentalhealth #actuallyautistic #adhd

Just finished watching #SkyKing on Hulu. As someone who suffers from mental health issues, this documentary of the account of Beebo’s adventure in the Q400 hits a little close to home. “I’m just a guy with a few screws loose”. #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness

Think of the last person you interacted with. How happy do you think you are relative to them? (I ask this question every day to gauge how happy the Fediverse is.) #happiness #poll #mentalhealth #psychology

Sharing to see what other people think.In today's meditation, these questions were asked:Who am I without referring to a thought to tell me who I am?Can I sustain not defining myself for a few moments? And simply be?Just rest in the light of being rather than the idea of being. #meditation #questions #reflection #mentalhealth

However in talking to Headway support many times over the past few weeks to try to opt out they eventually told me I can opt out by not using Headway, which means there is not actually an opt out.#autism #privacy #identityverification #ageverification #mentalhealth #persona #IDverification #biometricdata
