Friendly Reminder 5

Just a friendly reminder that imperfections are allowed. Don't hold yourself to impossible standards, or judge yourself too harshly. The Japanese art of kintsugi is a traditional repair method that involves sealing cracks with gold to highlight imperfections and embrace the beauty of flawed objects. You are perfectly imperfect, and that's okay.

Communication

I feel like this can apply to all NDs. I've gotten into the habit of asking people what they mean when they ask open-ended questions and if I don't understand the intention of what they are saying I ask "are you being literal, joking, or sarcastic?" It helps me so I don't get upset for taking what they said literally, as well as not laughing at inappropriate times because I can't tell.

Friendly Reminder 3

Just because you are not as independent as you as would like to be or once were, can't do everything on your own, or need help sometimes does NOT mean you are a burden. Somedays you're able to do more than other days, and that is perfectly okay! Try to remember that and give yourself some slack. Being disabled is not the problem, ableism is.
