I am grateful to all people who have accepted the intensity and extreme nature of my being. I tried to conform. Worked to behave. I have failed at even with professional help for over half a century. Any ideas how I can explain it without feeling such shame and failure?

I feel as if people want me to give them explanations so I do and then I'm told I'm lying I look too well or I'm so vivacious. I invite them to Rachel swartout at any time to hear a professional point of view. She even has a lovely private room at Arizona Oncology just for that.

My point being, F anyone who is not supporting you. I was so sick when I went back to work. One day, one of the admin sent me home because I was about to pass out from extreme anemia! I will never allow myself to be treated like that again. I was trying to be "good", team player.

People pleasing just about killed me. I've had to learn to set some hard boundaries... lolz says the girl who is currently working 60+ hours a week (do love this work & it's short term). Def scaling back in the fall.

It's hard to do isn't it? I am not good at compartmentalization or setting boundaries I never have been I have tried to please everybody since I was four when I started bleeding heavily. It's very rare so they miss it but a stem cell bone marrow transplant in children can cure it

Hey Do you do web accessibility checks for organizations? This came up on one of my librarian lists, where someone was looking for orgs/people to do 508 compliance check work. You're sort of a guru on it, so I didn't know if you took on that work specifically.

I personally do not do Audits and checks I know plenty of wonderful organizations that do however if you need some names I'm happy to give them to you hit me up in DM for that. I actually know more about the stack development then specific implementation of accessible Tech.
