Doing something.....

Some days I feel like I've done nothing, when in reality I've done stuff. I think it's because I have a studio apartment, and I spend most of my time in bed. (I don't have a couch.)
So, today I got an interview with an educational nonprofit. It's for next week, and I really hope that I get the job. My Masters is in Education, and I like working at nonprofits, and they seem like a good fit.
I also applied to a job at a health insurance nonprofit. I'm not sure if I'll get a call back from them, but you've got to keep your fingers crossed and keep looking.
I also read 1/3 of a book. It's called the "Whistleblower, an its about an UN Peacekeeper who discovered that sex-trafficking was going on in Bosnia. It's a great read.
No one reads this, but at least I feel better about myself. Time to get ready to meet a friend:-)

Honesty Time, Wohoo!!

It's time to be honest with myself and others....

Can someone please tell me if my perception is correct that it's easier to talk about one's physical disability and hush one's mental and intellectual disability and hide it under the rug? Is it because if we see it, we know what to expect? If we don't see it, we're afraid of it...We're afraid of how the person acts and what the person might do to himself or others?

How does one even disclose one's mental/intellectual disability? Hello, I appear normal, but I'm really not.....I'm unable to drive because my attention goes everywhere and I zone out and literally forget what I was doing and how I got from point A to point B.

Or, Hello, I appear normal, and I laugh at your jokes and in secret I emotionally beat myself up and cry and think that I'm not normal enough up because I have depression. I take drugs because my serotonin level is low.

Ok, honesty is over.

And something is in the mix because if I feel this way, countless others do to.....
We are not alone.
