Extreme heat can be dangerous for people taking psychiatric medication

Just a little PSA for all our mental health (and chronic pain*) spoonies out there! A lot of doctors neglect to mention this little side effect, which means a lot of us are suffering extra from the heat without knowing why.

*Many psych meds are used to treat chronic pain as well, if you didn’t know!

I only found this out the other day.

Also, remember heat IS sensory input, so if you’re exhausted and don’t know why, imagine the heat being a constant loud noise, or bright light, or constantly rubbing up against people in a crowd. Shit wears you out fast.

I know a lot of you guys don’t want to reblog those posts about the wildfires in Greece because they’re too long, so I figured I would make a shorter post for y’all. 

Here is a link on how to help and what the current situations are, and here is a direct link to the fundraiser.

As someone who has personally been affected by fire, I would really appreciate if y’all could sb this??

I am a trans girl in crisis.

Hi. My name is Laverne DeLuna. I am a 17 year old transgender girl. I am currently in a challenging living situation with my disabled and retired mother. I have never done this before, and I am putting my own pride asside. I am going through a name change that isn’t complete, so please disregard my legal name in the link that will follow. I have not applied for a job because of said name change process, that I want completed first. My aunt has wanted to kick me and my mom out of her home since November of last year. She is very conservative, and claims i’m not ladylike enough to be accepted as a woman. She sometimes tells me I dress like a hooker. At one point she even wished that one day i’d be “forced into a marriage where I am allowed to be beaten by my husband.” (By the way, she has a Muslim husband who I believe is not very supportive of my identity. My aunt’s religion is unknown but she is very faithful). Today, we are packing our things for shelter. Our living situation is in dire need, and donations of any size would be appreciated, but not necessary. Thank you.

As someone that has grown up surrounded by beaches and done surf life saving, I know how the sea works. Lots of people dont. Every summer multiple tourists die here because they don’t respect the sea, if you’re going to the coast, here’s a thing I saw on Facebook.

wow.

reblogging for all of us that grew up in land locked states, then visit the ocean and are used to just plunging into a lake.

WARNING: THE INCREDIBLES 2  IS NOT EPILEPSY SAFE.

This is not a joke. I was at a premier showing tonight, and my immediate thought was how disasterously unsafe this movie is for my photosensitive epilepic friends. @markingatlightspeed I’m tagging you with this specifically because this would be extremely dangerous for you to watch.

There are multiple scenes in this movie with full-screen, black-and-white flashing strobe effects. They all happen without warning, and last anywhere between a few seconds to more than two minutes. In a darkened movie theater, this means the likelihood of a seizure could be VERY HIGH if you are sensitive to these effects.

If you have photosensitive epilepsy or another disorder that is triggered by strobe lights, I would highly recommend you DO NOT SEE THE INCREDIBLES 2 IN THEATERS. Wait until the movie’s released on digital/Bluray, and you can watch it in a fully-lit room, with someone with you who will be able to help if the strobe effects do trigger a seizure.

Please stay safe.

saw the film yesterday, can confirm

I’m neither epileptic nor photo-sensitive and it still disorientated me a bit

(cool sequence, but “epileptic trigger” was my first thought upon seeing it)

I have slight photosensitivity, and can comfirm Those Specific Scenes™ made me a bit nauseous and dizzy. I had to put my hand in front of my face.
