I’m back on TikTok :)
@ chronicallylilah for all things chronic illness & DID (and more)

Why does my disability need to be a superpower? Can't it just be a thing that sucks and needs accommodating?
I can't stand the superpower narrative. It's not special or magic to be autistic or have a disability. It's human, and boring and needs understanding not weird fetishization.

Today was my last day at my first job ❤️‍🩹 I worked there a year and a half and it was the only good part of the hellish year I’ve been through. It’s very bittersweet, knowing better things are coming but having to leave this place behind to get there. Change is scary, but it can be so good too.

Yes! it feels like I can’t appreciate what good things do happen because I’m not present enough for those moments. Plus, then I’m too focused on the fear of when I’ll forget the positives that I do experience.

I feel like hours pass in minutes & the past few months, even this whole year, has been completely lost to not feeling present in my body & in time

Been thinking about not only how much time I’ve lost with DID, but how much living I’ve lost out on from being dissociated all the time. I wish I could experience time passing and day to day life without chronic dissociation :/

Just made our account but plan to post on our life with DID & neurodivergency as well as chronic illnesses! Would love to be added :)
