it took 61 hours, but the euphoria of being on a trip is gone, and i'm back to ideating suicide again as per usual

i keep buying clothes during massive crises that have to do with my presentation and then i never wear most of them ever again; let's see what happens with these that i bought just now

wolfgang trying american food/drinks 

starbucks soy hot chocolate: 4/10 it tasted bitter like fancy dark chocolate, and bitter is, as we know, the least good of the flavors; but it was infinitesimally more comforting than staying at the hotel room

mh-, re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism 

wow! i can already imagine doctors, family, and maybe a few """friends""" telling me my supposedly-mild orthopedic troubles are 100% treatable and unimpressive and that i don't REALLY need an [insert mobility aid here]! amazing! thanks, me!!

re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism 

like maybe even a wheelchair could have helped me greatly but like,,,,,,,,,, there's gonna be questions and even more ableism from family and friends and i just.... no

re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism 

maybe i should just splurge on ubers/taxis to everywhere when my legs/feet hurt instead of pretending i'm abled and healthy

usa, transportation, 420, sui mention, ph- exaggerated, re: ph-, internalized ableism 

also i wish i didn't have to smoke weed to stay alive and/or not unalive myself, because then i could get a driver's license and probably walk/stand less on my worse days 🙃🙃🙃

ph-, internalized ableism 

i keep overexerting myself by walking too much, but i also keep pushing myself to walk more (because i need to do things and get places), and i don't want to ask for help with things or use mobility aids because [see posts about the person at the airport a few days ago]

420, america visit, autism? 

it feels so weird to finally speak english with americans who assume that i'm also american; so many phatic expressions and fixed conversational scripts that i need to catch up on live and in production mode while probably-autistic and high

american public transit is making me gain a newfound appreciation for israeli public transit

re: ableism, - 

and it's just so friggin humiliating to be vulnerable in front of someone and ask for help only to be yelled at and mocked for it just because i look too healthy or idk what

re: ableism, - 

my leg and foot already hurt because i've over exerted myself and i don't wanna walk to the gate, but i also don't have the spoons to get yelled at again for daring to need assistance from a person whose literal job is to assist people in need of assistance

ableism, - 

ugh i tried asking for help from one of the airport workers that drives old and disabled people around in a cart, and he yelled at me and asked if i "think this is a taxi of some kind" and if you're ever wondering why i don't like to ask for help, and why i feel like a fake disabled person, shit like this is why. this stuff gets to me real bad

re: israel, religious leader death 

i think everyone's staying home because of all the closed streets and highways; the city feels almost empty rn

israel, religious leader death 

another thing with really really bad timing for me: a very important rabbi passed away last night, so half the roads in the tel aviv area are completely closed for his funeral: a massive event with mourners coming in from all over the country, that's not in tlv proper but right next to it

re: medical bureaucracy 

i called and asked to reschedule and i don't think it'll be any trouble, but it's like, wow, terrible timing

medical bureaucracy 

good morning to you too, text messages from the national insurance institute telling me i have to come in for a disability reassessment at a date when i'm supposed to be in the usa

re: ~ 

(i managed to do it through the app; everything is fine; now i just gotta hope i don't get refused entry into the usa for having too many ear piercings or whatever)
