At work, we had a designated quiet space. Today I learned they reverted it back to a conference room though we have many, mostly unused. It was an emergency decompression space. When I spoke up about this loss, I was told, “If someone has a problem with bells & whistles they probably don’t belong in a hospital.” They didn’t realize it was me. “Of course you belong here—you’ve been here forever—we all have to suck it up. We’re all burned out.”

How did my comrades self-regulate before they knew that they were or before they learned healthy ways to do so?

@theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic I did not really self regulate at all beyond coping with stress poorly. I believed I was dangerously self-centered and hoped i could survive in perpetual hiding if I tried hard enough lol

who else feels like private mention on mastodon feels like running around naked together in public but no one can see you?

Question: How do I simply let people prioritize their denial mechanism over their survival?

I'm too warmhearted and have a problem with that, but I am a strong believer in freedom. It's too late to save the biosphere so I might as well stop tilting at windmills and simply encourage everyone to stick their head in the sand whatever way works for them.

This is not a troll. I do need help with this stuff.

@Uair @actuallyautistic it's not too late... cause we really don't know what is possible... humanity is at the forefront of its own history. we only know if we keep doing the same shit, things are about to collapse in even the "richest" places, but we also know that no one is the same person today as they were yesterday... we are each growing and changing with the world, and we might evolve faster than we have before now, even by slowing down and stopping some behaviors and trying new ones...
