I hate to sound like one of those guys but I honestly think a lot of people are now using the terms executive dysfunction, dissociation, and intrusive thoughts either incorrectly or to excuse particular behaviors otherwise not caused by mental illness but by a lack of desire to do things.
Executive dysfunction isn’t just limited to not having the desire/energy to do things. It also involves impulsivity, mood swings, memory problems, and troubles with social interaction.
Dissociation isn’t just spacing out. It’s a disruption in your consciousness, your memory, and your perception on the world.
Intrusive thoughts are not harmless, quirky commands made by your brain. They are scary and often involve terrible acts of violence.
People throwing around these terms with incorrect or oversimplified definitions is harmful. You get a lot of people going “oh that’s me!” and thinking whenever they daydream in class they’re actually dissociating and call it that, not stopping to think that it’s actually a symptom developed from severe PTSD. Or how executive function primarily effects those with ADHD or brain injury and yet people who take a bit to do their homework or anything involving a bit of effort cite it as their reason for doing it so late rather than a simple lack of desire to do so. Or how intrusive thoughts can make someone so shaken and anxious that they become terrified of themselves but thoughts like “eat a leaf off the ground” somehow fall under this classification.
If you are experiencing these debilitating symptoms, get help if you can. Go to a psych, a therapist, counselor, anyone. If you don’t have the means to, find online support communities. Don’t spread misinformation and cheapen how terrifying and debilitating these symptoms really can be

“He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting”…i hope this woman burns in hell.
“If you can convince the lowest white man [or woman] he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets [and destroy his life] for you.”
-Lyndon B. Johnson
“He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting” is quite possibly the most evil thing I’ve ever heard. This person’s suffering almost makes up for the state this country is in right now.
I’m Erin, my family needs at least $10 to eat this week and $10 for sisters medsI need money for groceries as we have no food to eat. I’m sorry to ask for this but we need help. I got turned down for disability and my caseworker helped me apply for SSI which I am likely to get. I am just waiting to hear back on it which will be soon. If you want to donate, be it 1 cent or 5 cent, no amount is too small, I it would be greatly appreciatedand go towards food, necessities, or bills. Reblogs are as helpful as donations. Nobody has to donate if they don’t want to or can’t,times are hard on everyone. No one should feel guilty. I love y’all. Please don’t send hate, I will block you.
will post proof of the bill being paid.
Basilosaurus, which means “King Lizard,” was actually a whale that lived 30-45 million years ago. Scientists have also just published a paper indicating that it was likely apex predator.

To create the effect of the title, an animation cell with “The Thing” written on it was placed behind a fish tank filled with smoke that was covered with a plastic garbage bag. The garbage bag was ignited, creating the effect of the title burning onto the screen. [x]
