I may have ‘leveled up’ in my medical self-advocacy 😂. Rather than stewing on a response/only speaking up later, I just *reflexively* & sternly snapped at a doctor: “Do NOT misdiagnose me with anxiety when I am upset with you over the mishandling of my medical care.”

My answer was then to say this is how birth babies are announced, baby showers are done, so why the secrecy with ours just because we adopted him. The side effects of having a ton of folks reach out to me and my husband has been a lovely bonus. And no regrets.

It is infuriating when people say: “think positive thoughts” when mental health isn’t doing well. It is dismissive/stigmatizing to reduce real illnesses that impact all aspects of quality of life to this. It is not a lack of positive thinking that leads to mental health issues.

Upper-caste Indians at Google are so terrified of discussions of caste that they managed to get a talk by @dalitdiva cancelled. And thereby Streisand-effected caste into the national news. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

Question for Twitter: if you’re interested in the nuances of covid and medicine and autoimmune issues and neurodiversity, can you let me know? Because I’ve long thought of creating a separate account to share more on that.

Don’t think I’ve ever heard it put better: “This isn’t Medicine. This is conveyor belt ignorance…”

I adore Oliver Jeffers books, though this one is with him as an illustrator only The Day the Crayons Quit is one of my favourite books for younger children and I always include it in any package I am making for a little one

So important to focus on soothing ourselves right now.We're reminded of @warsan_shire's lines: "later that night i held an atlas in my lap ran my fingers across the whole world and whispered where does it hurt? it answered everywhere everywhere everywhere." #TherapistTwitter
Decolonizing Therapy@DrJennyJennM

The global collective violence is kicking up old ancestral traumas. Rage, exhaustion and fear are normal responses to such activation & grief. Our cells & bodies remember. Be kind & compassionate with yourselves.

10 minute deliveries need to be regulated/outlawed. No civilised society can be incentivising delivery executives to break traffic rules & put own & other’s lives at risk. All for a quicker pizza. Am going to raise this in parliament.

"they live in a chawl but have a fridge. Their kids go to school." -- the upper-caste urge to dismiss the struggles of the marginalised if they even dare to live a life that's barely above hand-to-mouth existence. The belief that basic subsistence is all they deserve.

When someone deeply listens to you—it's like holding out a dented cup you've had since childhood—and watching it fill it up with cold, fresh water. When it balances on top of the brim, you are understood. When it overflows & touches your skin,you are loved. — John Fox. #Therapy
