It’s sad that #chronicillness, #chronicpain and #disability representation in books is rare. So, I get excited when I find it, and especially so when it’s good! #ItsAllInYourHead by @nordqvistbooks.bsky.social is such an excellent example. I highlighted so many passages that resonated with me….

Telling a #ChronicPain patient they need to try #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy / #CBT before any type of legitimate prescription medication is like saying “think about bunnies and your #pain will go away” because #ItsAllInYourHead.
It’s not right for insurance or politicians to tell doctors what to do.

As answer is still 0%, here again: How often is a male professor asked in awe: “How do you manage to work 100%, travel much&raise 3 kids?” And: “Wow, lucky you to be with a wife, who reduced the work load because of the kids?” #itsallinyourhead #equalopportunities #freelifechoices #letschangesociety

Had a burst of inspiration today and I have decided to rewrite my play for a London showing 2nd quarter 2025.

Been focused on writing a musical but I feel like I am not done with
#ItsAllinYourHead

I have more context and more information now. I can make it better

Putting it out in the universe

What's worked for me lately, when I have an intrusive thought or one that's gonna hurt me, is to telling my brain "shut the fuck up" out loud. Works like a charm for me
