No fancy OP this time because I am running on E! I’m definitely not a couple of days late! This week’s person of interest is you, dear reader. Tell this fat frog lady all about your lovely selves this week. Tell me what makes you laugh and what brings you joy in this hell on earth we call home.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

    Why am unable to fall asleep at a reasonable time?

    This has been messing with me a lot the past week. Tired all day, brain isn’t working properly due to the lack of sleep, then when it’s time to try sleeping, I suddenly am excited and not sleepy, like right now.

    Is this an ADHD thingy? I have been suspecting myself of having it on top of everything else, but no proof, and I don’t fit the stereotype of it

    If I was able to go to sleep right now, I could do cool stuff on the weekend tomorrow while at peak mental capacity, but no, now that would be a good time to sleep I can’t actually fall asleep catgirl-flop

      Poor sleep schedule is definitely an ADHD thing! Makes it hard to focus on trying to sleep instead of just thinking yourself awake

      The lack of daylight for waking up is probably not helping, but also I can’t open the window because it always makes me feel like I’m being watched and then I can’t asleep screm-aaaaa

      I can’t rearrange the furniture so that there isn’t a direct line of sight from outside to the bed where I’m sleeping, either, no space here for rearranging any of the furniture
