From our Speechies in Business archives:
I don't usually see many tweets about SLT students struggling mentally but the past 2 weeks for me have been so overwhelming and tiring. I've realised there's nothing wrong with asking for help and thankfully my SLT spark is coming back and I'm ready for another week of it 💪

Perspectives:
Every time I have to fill out disability services access forms for my autistic son, I die inside over the awful way I have to write about him in order to access those services. And I weep for the children whose parents only see them through the dehumanizing lens of those forms.

Motherhood, grief, disability, learning to love. (And theater, and Butoh.)
This short film (you can watch it for free) is one of the most heart-wrenching and unflinchingly honest things I have seen in a while. Thank you, @NewYorker.

Kid having a complete meltdown at the grocery store. The mom goes “Sweetheart, please use your words to tell me what’s wrong.” Kid sniffles, wipes his nose on his shirt, deep steadying breath, screams, “WHEN YOU TELL ME NO, IT SOUNDS BAD IN MY EARS AND FEELS BAD IN MY HEART!”
